Former SRC chairman Davit Ananyan wrote on his Facebook page:
“Yesterday, the great PACE opened its political arms and kicked Azerbaijan out of its exclusive club for a whole year. Just like that, under the sound of a virtuoso melody about the violation of human rights, the situation in Nagorno Karabakh and other heartbreaking notes. The decision was made under the condition of return, of course, with the hopeless expectation that Azerbaijan will unconditionally accept the capitulation according to PACE standards.
PACE refers so subtly to the PACE resolution “Ensuring free and safe access through the Lachin Corridor” that it seems to be trying to hide its obsolescence and its own helplessness to implement proper control and preventive measures. At the same time, PACE cynically expresses its deep regret for the lack of opportunity to visit Lachine Corridor. However, the most exciting thing is that the PACE observers did not receive the blessing to participate in the presidential elections of Azerbaijan to be held on February 7, 2024. What a celebration of political culture they will miss.
And the political power of Armenia is pleased and delighted with its characteristic illiteracy, ignorance and populism, seriously believing that the PACE resolution is its major diplomatic victory.
The reality, however, is that the West has turned a blind eye to the violent depopulation of Artsakh as a result of the genocidal acts carried out by Azerbaijan in September of last year, hoping under the veil of “dark deals” that this will help push Russia out of the region and force Azerbaijan to fulfill its obligations. In the context of actions against Iran.
However, unexpectedly for everyone, Azerbaijan decides to show its diplomacy of not being a puppet in this performance. Having absorbed Artsakh, Aliyev makes a sharp turn in the other direction, joining the Russian-Iranian wing, welcoming the presence of Russian peacekeepers in Artsakh, initiating important negotiations with Iran, etc. Azerbaijan obviously does not hesitate to show its independence by refusing to go to Granada and pointing to its preferred (Russian) platforms to settle issues.
And here the West, like a director seeing an unexpected turn in the plot, decides to use his favorite tools: yellow cards in the form of resolutions that shine like bright lights in the political mosaic, from the French Senate to the PACE.
Everything is very simple, ordinary and has nothing to do with us. The West decided to punish the rebel.”
