We need to attack Azerbaijan - political analyst (video)
Pope Francis’ visit to Armenia was a revival of faith. I am sure that we cannot use the same phrase after his upcoming visit to Azerbaijan or Georgia, says political analyst Levon Shirinyan. “The visit was a mission, and no one should ever try to underestimate it. Pope’s visit to Armenia was a Christian pilgrimage, an ecumenical visit to the Promised Land,” he said. The political analyst stresses that at present we should focus on the settlement of the Karabakh conflict. “Armenia should present its demands very clearly to Russia. For the first time in the history, Russia is obliged to protect the interests of Armenia and meet our requirements. As for our actions, the Armenian side does not need to maintain the status quo. We just need to attack and destroy Azerbaijan,” Levon Shirinyan said. The political analyst says Azerbaijan is ‘fighting an exhausting war.’ “This is a stalemate which will end with the disappearance of Armenia or Azerbaijan. We need to escalate the conflict. The so-called international community does not exist, and each side should pursue its interests,” Mr Shirinyan said.
