Armenia’s Pashinyan urges NATO to send strong message to Azerbaijan
Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan has called on NATO to send a strong message to neighbouring Azerbaijan that the international community will not accept any attempt to resolve the conflict in Nagorno Karabakh by force.
“This conflict should be resolved only through (a) peaceful way. Unfortunately from first days of becoming Armenian Prime Minister I see that Azerbaijan is increasing its aggressiveness towards Armenia,” Pashinyan said in an exclusive interview with Euronews.
He stressed that Azerbaijan’s aggressive policy is not only against Armenia, but also against democracy because “now Armenia is a really democratic country.”
According to the PM, Azerbaijan has a fear that its own people will be inspired by the Armenian processes to initiate democratic changes in the country.
“It would be very useful if NATO will send strong message to Azerbaijan that any attempt to solve (the) Nagorno Karabakh conflict using force will meet strong reaction from the international community,” he said.
