No matter how much Nikol Pashinyan tries to falsify the Artsakh negotiation process, it is a well-known fact that on October 7, 2016, Aliyev announced during the extended session of the Azerbaijani government. "Behind closed doors, Azerbaijan is being pressured to agree to the independence of Nagorno-Karabakh." However, Aliyev's revelations are not limited to this. He also claimed that the Western media and non-governmental organizations have created a "5th column" in Azerbaijan, the purpose of which is to "exercise pressure, force them to agree to the independence of Nagorno Karabakh".
It is a known fact. mediators always put pressure on all sides of the conflict, trying to reach a compromise settlement. Aliyev admits that the West, among other levers, also tried to force Azerbaijan to come to terms with the loss of Artsakh through the Azerbaijani opposition "civil society".
It would be naive and illogical to assume that Armenia was not subjected to such pressures.
"Public organizations" were also created in Armenia, which received extravagant financial support from various Western funds, whose main political goal was "Armenian-Azerbaijani reconciliation". And if Armenians and Azerbaijanis "live in peace", the joyful and happy life of the people of Artsakh would be guaranteed within Azerbaijan.
Remember the pro-Azerbaijani propaganda of various NGOs 10-15 years ago.
Pashinyan came to power.
Those NGOs supported him and warmly welcomed him, they became his political support. Today, those "rights defenders" are silent, they don't see that Armenia is rushing towards one-wheeled tyranny.
It is now obvious that some Armenian NGOs were more persistent and successful. Their political agenda succeeded. Artsakh, hindering Armenian-Azerbaijani love, was subjected to ethnic cleansing and annexed to Azerbaijan.
In contrast to these, Azerbaijani NGOs allegedly changed their repertoire and became Azerbaijan's political lever. Let's not forget that it was the NGOs that blocked the Kashatagh corridor.
Those executioners recently came to Yerevan. The base murderers were accepted by Armenia's greatest ASC.
Maybe other high-ranking Nikolaians were accepted, I don't remember.
Why did I remember this? Representatives of the Armenian "civil society" left for Baku. What these organizations are public is a topic of separate discussion. The trip of 5 people cost the taxpayers 17 million drams.
It is obvious that those five will not demand the release of Armenian prisoners, will not address the right of return of Artsakh residents, will not talk about the right of peoples to self-determination, I do not think they will demand the withdrawal of the Azerbaijani occupation forces from Armenia and the lifting of the blockade of Armenia... What will they discuss? how to love Zmimeans and Nikol Pashinyan?
