Military-Political

An interview with the director of the Institute of Oriental Studies of the Armenian National Academy of Sciences, Academician RUBEN SAFRASTYAN

On November 22, the 5th Interdepartmental Scientific-Practical Conference was held at the National Center for Defense Management of the Russian Federation in Moscow.

During the four-day Artsakh war, the Azerbaijani armed forces carried out a series of actions that qualify as a war crime under international humanitarian law. And now the authorities of the Republic of Armenia and NKR, cooperating with international organizations, are collecting evidence of committed crimes on the basis of which criminal proceedings are starting.

The visit of Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in Yerevan on April 22 and his statements have become a new milestone in the process of settlement of the Karabakh conflict.

At the heart of this large-scale aggression by Azerbaijan is a whole complex of motives. The main problem is that this country every day rolls into poverty. This is due to not only the fall in oil prices, but also incompetent policy towards society.
