NATO countries are trying to disrupt the agreement on Karabakh. This is stated in a statement by the head of the Foreign Intelligence Service, Sergei Naryshkin, published on the agency’s website, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“Leading NATO countries are trying to hide their irritation at the agreement between Azerbaijan and Armenia on a ceasefire in Nagorno-Karabakh, reached with the active participation of Russia. The United States and its allies are angry that the war was stopped through Moscow's mediation. After all, this, in essence, “nullified” their many years of work to oust Russia from Transcaucasia.
Neither Washington nor the “united Europe” want to put up with the current balance of power in the region. In order to “dismantle” it, they did not come up with anything better than to once again try to incite discord between the peoples of Azerbaijan and Armenia.
According to the information we have, some Western countries, through existing channels, are provoking Armenian and Azerbaijani nationalists to discredit and disrupt the ceasefire agreement. They are trying to convince Armenians that peace in Nagorno-Karabakh is a defeat for Yerevan. The idea of the need for “war to a victorious end” is being thrown around. Azerbaijanis, on the contrary, are told that the Kremlin “stole their victory” when the Azerbaijani army was one step away from taking Stepanakert.
Such actions are further evidence that the United States and its European friends, as always, solve their problems at the expense of the interests of ordinary people, this time – Azerbaijanis and Armenians. Americans and Europeans are not worried that their provocations could lead to new bloodshed and plunge the region into a serious military conflict,” warns Naryshkin.
