Well there's the possibility of a land swap... Armenia get's Nagorno and Azerbaijan gets maybe the South of Armenia in exchange. That's the best possible outcome. Why will Armenia want to keep the south if is just a bunch of mountains with barely a few people i guess the land swap is the best outcome for both of them.

I guess it doesn't count as ''ethnic cleansing nor genocide'' if Muslims are being killed??? This wicked double standarts is the whole reason why this conflict didn't end with a peaceful solution due so called ''humanist'' westerners never ever put enough pressure on Armenia even if they were extremely wrong in this conflict and the justice had to be served by force!! And Azerbaijan didn't capture entire Karabakh not only because a corridor between Azerbaijan and Turkey is very important also because there was always an Armenian autonomous oblast in Karabakh even 100 years ago and Karabakh wasn't ceded to Azerbaijan during Soviet era neither rather in 1921 with treaty of Kars so Azerbaijan always considered Karabakh as an autonomous oblast until those Armenians started to target Azerbaijani forces in 80s and it will remain as an autonomous oblast under Russian peacekeeper control today!!

There will not be any peace before there are double standards. Accusing Azerbaijan of a “genocide” which it never did and ignoring the war crimes which Armenia did is a clear illustration of it. Although all the lands regained by Azerbaijan belong to it by international law, Azerbaijan gave enough time for the occupational Armenian soldiers enough time to leave. During the 90s Azerbaijani civilians were running barefoot through forests, escaping the ethnic cleansing. They weren’t given a chance to escape, Khojaly genocide is a proof of Armenian war crimes.
@JamesKerLindsay3 жыл бұрын
I did not accuse Azerbaijan of genocide. I said that there was a very real fear of it happening if the war had run to its logical conclusion. And there was a real worry about this. We all saw how both sides were behaving on social media. Even senior officials were calling for blood. In such situations, it is very easy for atrocities to happen. I have done a lot of work on the Balkans. That is a very good example. When sides dehumanise each other to the extent we have seen in Armenia and Azerbaijan, fighting can very easily and quickly cross a boundary and lead to war crimes. Secondly, I asked viewers to go to my previous video, where I look at the background to the conflict. There I state that many hundreds of thousands of Azerbaijanis were forced from their lands and that the basis for any agreement had to be their right of return.

Do not put your perspective predisposing one side. The crimes you are trying to explicate was the result of the process of war between the two countries. Both suffered with tremendous losses you can't discrete the two, both committed atrocities and war crime. But if you hold out on to your belief and single out the Armenians of a crime, try to look back their History in 1915, where thousands of Armenians was brutally evicted and deported forcefully by the Ottomans and bring them to deaths. The Armenians nowadays has no more hold on to their rightful land and their territory is shrinking. Whats the reason behind all of this? We can find it all behind the interest of the super power rival nations.

First of all Azerbaijan has nothing to do with 1915. Second this doesn’t justify the war crimes they did against Azerbaijan. Third Azerbaijan haven’t occupied a single sq. m of Armenia. All the war was happening on the territory of Azerbaijan and it was Armenia who initiated this war. These false accusations against Azerbaijan again shows either that you are not aware of the conflict or that you don’t want to see obvious things. And this approach just gives Armenias confidence to keep doing what they have been doing. During the recent clashes they shoot 2 ballistic missiles into the middle of sleeping city, which was far away from the conflict zone. They launched a missile into Mingacevir water reservoir. Just by a chance the rockets didn’t hit a reservoir, if it would thousands of civilians would have died under the water.

I think that a good amount of people in Azerbaijan would do this, but I strongly doubt that Alijev himself would act this way. He might have his personal reasons for that, but he clearly shows by his attitudes, how much he enjoys seeing the Armenian people humiliated that much. He definitely doesn't have a high moral stature.

In 1989, Nagorno-Karabakh had a population of 192,000, of which 76% was Armenian and 23% Azerbaijani, with Russian and Kurdish minorities. Please note it was lowest % of Armenians who lived there. The issue started because of Armenian who lived on their historical lands which were given to Azerbaijan by Soviet Union were getting murdered and discriminated for their culture and religion. That’s why first war started. Unfortunately Armenian people were getting murdered, discriminated and moved out of their ethnic lands for centuries. Unfortunately $ and world corruption keeps getting wars everyday in many countries. Everything related to these lands goes back to Armenian genocide time started at the end of 19th century and beginning of 20th century. At Paris Peace Conference in 1919 it was proposed to create large (320,000 km2 or 125,000 sq mi) Armenian state, including the territory of former Armenian Kingdom of Cilicia with total population of 4.3 million, 2.5 million of which would be Armenians. The Treaty of Sèvres was signed between the Allied and Associated Powers and Ottoman Empire at Sèvres, France on 10 August 1920. The treaty included a clause on Armenia: it made all parties signing the treaty recognize Armenia as a free and independent state. The drawing of definite borders was, however, left to U.S. President Woodrow Wilson and the United States State Department, and was only presented to Armenia on 22 November 1920. The new borders gave Armenia access to the Black Sea and awarded large portions of the eastern provinces of the Ottoman Empire to the republic. The Treaty of Sèvres was signed by the Ottoman Government, but Sultan Mehmed VI never signed it and thus never came into effect. The Turkish Revolutionaries, led by Mustafa Kemal Pasha, began the Turkish National Movement which, in opposing any territorial concessions to either the Greeks or the Armenians, moved forward with their plans to crush the Armenian republic.

Dear Sukram, you may also want to know why Nakhchivan is an enclave i.e., a part of Azerbaijan that is cut off the mainland Azerbaijan. It seems weird when looking at the map. The truth is a long corridor-looking Armenian territory between Nakhchivan and Azerbaijan was an Azerbaijani province called Zangazur until 1920 when bolshevik government annexed both Nakhchivan and Zangazur to Armenia. But a few months later Nahkchivan was given back to Azerbaijan thanks to the efforts of the then leader of Azerbaijan Narimanov. Of course Armenians renamed Zangazur as they practised in Karabakh renaming every single village that has been occupied in the past 30 years.

And when Turkey eventually p****s off all of its allies it will have to build a corridor all the way to China. Perhaps they could call it the Silk Road. Or The Orient Express. Erdogans Folly would probably be more fitting. And before anyone points out, I'm well aware that such a project would probably be Erdogans dream.

The territories between Nakhchivan and Karabakh were also Azerbaijani lands. During the Soviet era, Zangazur was taken from Azerbaijanis and forcibly handed over to the Armenian SSR. No matter how much ethnic cleansing was carried out by the Armenians, there were still Azerbaijani villages and settlements in Gafan and Mehrid for many months until 1988 (some of them: Davudbey, Shabadin, Govshud, Nuvedi, Hajati, Dag Gilatagh, Gomaran, Purulu, Sovkhoz, Hajibaj). In addition, there were such a large number of Azerbaijani villages in each region of the Armenian SSR. Because the Armenian state was established in the territories of Azerbaijan. I remember that the Armenians expelled the Azerbaijanis from there in 1988. At that time, more than 350,000 Azerbaijanis were expelled from the Armenian SSR. Azerbaijani refugees who came to our neighborhood could not bring anything from their homes. We gave them clothes and necessary things. Then the Armenians expelled the Azerbaijanis in and around Karabakh. Some of my family were killed by Armenians. We were also expelled from Zangilan. Until then, there were no Armenian villages in Zangilan, Jabrayil, Fuzuli, Lachin, Kalbajar, Aghdam and Tartar. Azerbaijanis also formed a majority in other cities and regions of Karabakh. About one million Azerbaijanis living in and around Karabakh were expelled from their territories. At that time, Armenians committed very serious crimes and murders. In fact, the lands between Nakhchivan and Zangilan

Thank you for this video, it constitutes one of the few sane analyses on the matter. Can Azerbaijan incorporate the remaining N-K into its state (w/o granting autonomy) before the peacekeepers leave? It would have to bring troops and law enforcement in the area before doing so. If Azerbaijan does so in the future, Armenia could just block the corridor which will be passing through its sovereign territory when the peacekeepers leave. That route seems too valuable for Turkey and Azerbaijan as it is bypassing Iran.

Modern legal positivists consider international law as a unified system of rules that emanates from the states' will. ALIEV signed Madrid principal .1) The final legal status of NK will be determined through a plebiscite allowing the free and genuine expression of the will of the population of NK. The modalities and timing of this plebiscite will be agreed by the parties through future negotiations as described in (9). The population of NK is understood as the population of all ethnicities living in NK in 1988, in the same ethnic proportions as before the outbreak of the conflict . The formulation of the question or questions to be asked in the plebiscite should not be limited, and could cover the full range of status options.

Thanks. You are right. This had been agreed. The problem is that international political practice in recent decades has tended to accept that if a state wishes to reassert its sovereignty over a secessionist territory then it can get on with it. (Serbia and Kosovo was an obvious exception.) All things considered, I think that history will judge that Armenia made a huge mistake by sitting on the situation for so long. It became complacent, even though it was clear that Azerbaijan was building up its arms with one obvious intent. And while I have stated in another video that Azerbaijan went against UN resolutions by using force, the reality is that no one was going to care enough to stop it from acting, especially when the territory was essentially accepted as Azerbaijan’s (notwithstanding your correct point about the fact that Baku had essentially recognised the possibility of an alternative status). Fundamentally, most states care about their territorial integrity and don’t like imposing restrictions on a state’s right to protect that territorial integrity.

Another excellent video! You kind of casually drop an opinion at the end which I see at least one other person has commented on, and I was also wondering about it: you say that Nagorno-Karabakh/Artsakh is no longer a defacto state. Now based on our previous back and forths on this topic (to rehash if we are specifically talking about states with limited or no foreign recognition I think it’s fair to put them all in the same category to start before subcategorizing based on their specific situations, but I digress) where we dove pretty deep into this, I believe that you’re saying the entity no longer a de facto state because 1. it doesn’t have functional control over a majority of its claimed territory, as South Ossetia or Transnistria do, and 2. it is, post-defeat, reliant on foreign military intervention to maintain the border/frontline rather than genuine local strength, am I understanding your take correctly? And if so, I guess the follow-up would be: if you are indeed putting genuine breakaway states, like Somaliland, and foreign puppets well-enough disguised as genuine breakaway states, like Abkhazia, in one category, and entities like post-defeat Nagorno-Karabakh in another category, 1. what would you call these latter entities (other than just “entities”) if not states/defacto states, and 2. would this category which now includes post-defeat Nagorno-Karabakh/Artsakh presumably also include entities such as the Donbas republics, the 2020-era South Yemen, or Ambazonia? (Actually come to think of it, the 1945-46 Soviet puppet states in nearby Iranian Azerbaijan and Kurdistan may also have fit into this latter category of those you don’t consider defacto states)

James, a well done and objective analysis. Thank you. I'd add few more points: - From my read of the Armenian social media, it seems that the Armenian public (esp. the younger generation) over the last 10 years or so came to mistakenly believe that the 7 districts surrounding the Nagorno Karabakh ("NK") are part of Karabakh as well. This is because of how the issue and the relevant maps were communicated by government (in short, propaganda). Many now act surprised that the Armenian gov't agreed to vacate those surrounding districts as part of the peace agreement. - This 44-day war simply enforced the broad principles (called "Madrid principles") that were previously agreed by AZE and ARM. The only difference is that AZE gets to keep liberated territories of the NK (Shusha, etc.) and the road link to Nakhchivan.

They will continue to do so, as Armenians in mass are fleeing the region. The region has been ethnically cleansed, not that any Azeris object to this. They believe it is their land and internationally is recognized that way but this is a result of the USSRs meddling. In reality, this was from the very start, a proxy war between Turkey and Russia.

Go study old historians and you will not find any Turkish name in there books.

That is just some low quality BS what you have written here. Your history was artificially created, not Armenia's, your history textbooks are pure falsifications. If you do not believe in this, do yourself a favor, go out of your country, check the big libraries of Europe, see if you find any word about your country before 1918. I dare you. Then you can come here, and talk and bring proof, if you can find it.

@@shahriyaramiraslanov6331 It looks your knowledge of history starts from about 100 years ago. In our country we have Armenians who you made to migrate to here. My father especially dislikes them. Yet I can tell you that one of the oldest sources of our own history is written by Armenian chroniclers 1700-1800 years ago when the horde of some of our ancestors passed through Caucasus on route to Europe. No Khazars, Avars, or other sorts of Turks were there before the Armenians.

Thank you. I suspect that this is not over yet. There’s a lot of uncertainty built into this new situation.

I have a question let’s say if the war restarts and for some reason Russia and Turkey engage in war , which side will Azerbaijan choose ?

Actually the best role for Azerbaijan will be to mediate the conflict, it is close and integrated with both sides.

excellent video James! I guess that Azerbaijan has already achieved what they wanted and it may happen that they allow the remaining Nagorno-Karabakh to join Armenia for a link to Nakhichevan (I'm thinking of let building a 40 km tunnel in Armenian mountains that would be fully controlled by Baku, for cars and trains). But Armenia would probably want to recover first some symbolic places such as Dadivank or Tsitsernavank monasteries. Moreover initially it was Armenia accepted to give back the exclaves of in north Armenia (like Sofulu) but it wasnt in the final deal so it can be some things that Armenia can use to negotiate with Azerbaijan
