Vahram Atanesyan, a former member of the Artsakh National Assembly and analyst, wrote on his Facebook page.
"The government should be able to decide to stop at some "critical point." Russia, for example, had internationally achieved the civilizational legalization of "Novorusia." But because he had "worn out his internal brakes," it followed the path of annexing the east of Ukraine. Of course, it may achieve this goal by military means. But in that case, the NATO-Russia "contact line" will reach the Dnieper. There may be no Ukraine, Russia, or Poland facing each other. Fundamentally, nothing will change.
Armenia would have to stop at some "critical point." It would not be an explicit guarantee of Nagorno Karabakh's independence, but Artsakh's ethnic-civilizational identity would be preserved in the broader area. Azerbaijan will also stop at a "critical point" on the internationally recognized border of Armenia. Otherwise, the South Caucasus may be divided into zones tomorrow. But there will be neither Armenia nor Azerbaijan."
