Military expert: Armenian authorities  already trying to meet  Azerbaijan`s demands in practice

ArmInfo.The current Armenian authorities are already trying at the highest level to implement the so-called "Western Azerbaijan" project, as stated by military expert Hayk Nahapetyan during debates in Yerevan on  "Guaranteed Peace or 'Western Azerbaijan,' on March 6.  Also, he added that  there is already information confirming this fact.

Specifically, he reported that, according to his information, a new  director of the Institute of History has been appointed at the  National Academy of Sciences of Armenia, who, together with the  institute's academic staff, is  considering the issue of including  Azerbaijani toponyms used before 1991 on a new map of Armenia.

"It is also reported that this order came from the Cadastre Committee  of Armenia. Moreover, according to the Academy's academic community,  the newly appointed director is trying to persuade colleagues to  implement this through monetary reward," the expert added.

According to Nahapetyan, an information bulletin will be compiled  based on this map, which will, for instance, indicate the regions  where Azerbaijanis lived between 1988 and 1991. According to the  military expert, steps are already being taken at the state level to  create conditions allowing Azerbaijan to fulfill its latest demand  and resettle 300,000 Azerbaijanis in Armenia.

Speaking about whether this is feasible, Nahapetyan pointed out that  similar practices exist, for example, in the history of Israel (the  Golan Heights, a territory annexed by Israel in 1981 - ed.). In his  opinion, a similar scenario is being imposed on Armenia today, in  which the question is not even about the country's political  orientation, economic development, or choice of allies, but whether  Armenians will live in Armenia or not.

"And if this still seems unrealistic to some, I assure you: it will  become our reality if there is no resistance from the Armenian side,"  the expert concluded.
