The Republic of Azerbaijan, which stole its name from a region of Iran, claims lineage from the Oghuz Turkic tribe of Central Asia, is armed by Israel, and backed by BP, is about to demolish the millennia-old Armenian heritage of Artsakh, the birthplace of the Armenian language.

This is what Azerbaijan did to Artsakh for 9 months.
They cut off fuel, electricity, then food.
Had there been no exodus path to an Armenian state, Artsakh would have been indefinitely caged, monitored, and humiliated, just as Gaza has been.
Such indignity is not sustainable.

Prepare for a cold winter.
One year ago Pashinyan handed over Berdzor corridor to Azerbaijan, and with it control over Artsakh's Gazprom Armenia-fed pipeline.
One look at the northeastern areas Pashinyan says he's "ready to exchange", and it should be clear Armenia's own Gazprom line is being put at risk.
