Jon Iñarritu: Azerbaijan’s actions and rhetoric often serve as a precursor to armed conflicts

Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev’s actions and rhetoric in recent years reveal a pattern characteristic of the Aliyev regime’s autocratic behavior, often serving as a precursor to armed conflict. In my opinion, it is significant that the Prime Minister of Armenia has publicly expressed this concern. Spanish Member of Parliament Jon Iñarritu expressed this opinion in an interview with Armenpress, speaking about the continuous threats against Armenia from Azerbaijan and the latter’s illegitimate territorial claims.

Referring to Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan’s recent interview, where he expressed concern about Azerbaijan’s territorial claims against Armenia, the Spanish MP highlighted the importance of this statement. He noted that Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev’s actions and rhetoric in recent years reveal a pattern characteristic of the Aliyev regime’s autocratic behavior.

“In my opinion, it is significant that the PM of Armenia has publicly expressed this concern. Azerbaijan’s actions and rhetoric in recent years reveal a pattern characteristic of the Aliyev regime’s autocratic behavior, often as a precursor to armed conflict,” he said. “During the war and the subsequent ethnic cleansing of Armenians from Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsakh), Azerbaijan received Turkey’s full support and faced only passive indifference from much of the international community. This lack of accountability has emboldened the Aliyev regime, reinforcing its belief that it can act with impunity.”
