Baku / 17.11.20 / Turan: Today, on November 17, the Grand National Assembly (parliament) of Turkey will consider the ratification of yesterday's decision to send servicemen of the Turkish army to Azerbaijan, deputy of the Milli Mejlis Arzu Nagiyev (political scientist, deputy general director at the TREND International Information Agency) told Turan).
The corresponding draft Decree signed by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan was submitted on Monday for parliamentary approval. The text of the document draws attention to the joint statement of the leaders of the three countries on Nagorno-Karabakh, as well as the demand of official Baku to form a joint center of Turkey and Russia to monitor the ceasefire regime.
"The place of the Center will be determined by Azerbaijan upon the arrival of the Turkish military, bearing in mind that the liberated regions of Karabakh are Azerbaijani territory.
The legal basis for the actions of Turkish military personnel in Azerbaijan will be this decision of the Turkish parliament, the Azerbaijani-Turkish agreement on mutual assistance of August 16, 2020 and the joint statement of the three presidents, the fifth paragraph of which said about the deployment of the Peacekeeping Center to control the ceasefire,” explained MP A.Nagiyev.
The duration of the stay of the Turkish military in Azerbaijan is one year, such a requirement of the 92nd paragraph of the Turkish constitution. The number of Turkish military personnel in the Peacekeeping Center should not be less than the number of Russian peacekeepers in Karabakh (1960) - A. Nagiyev added. Military personnel and, if necessary, civilian specialists will operate in the Center being created, the Turkish media write.
Answering the question about the participation of the peacekeepers of the two countries and the armed forces of Azerbaijan in neutralizing Armenian militants or units of the occupation corps of Armenia who refused to leave Karabakh, A. Nagiyev noted that the Russian and Turkish military have experience of joint actions in Syria. The Azerbaijani Armed Forces will not be involved in a military operation to implement the decisions of the trilateral statement of the Azerbaijani Armed Forces, the expert added.
He reported the latest incoming data: Armenian soldiers leaving Karabakh are blowing up their posts and weapons left there. There are unverified, possibly fake news about an armed clash between the Armenian and Russian military, indicating the number of victims from the Russian side.
The4 Milli Mejlis deputy Razi Nurullayev thinks a little differently. In his interview with Turan, he said that if after December 1, 2020 the Armenian military remains in Karabakh and does not fulfill all the conditions of the trilateral statement, then the Azerbaijani army would resume hostilities against the invaders.
According to R. Nurullayev, Turkish military specialists arrive in Azerbaijan to control the implementation of the trilateral statement in order to prevent the impending Armenian provocations in order to disrupt the planned process.
“The Armenians are now putting pressure on Russia and the OSCE Minsk Group, claiming that the demands put forward against them are humiliating and difficult to implement. I am not aware of the specific requirements of the Armenians regarding this document. Power may change in Armenia, yesterday the president of this country demanded the resignation of Prime Minister N. Pashinyan. Power can be transferred to the Committee of National Unity, which will immediately declare that it will not be responsible for fulfilling the conditions of the tripartite statement. In order to prevent the collusion of Armenians with Russian peacekeepers in this situation, Turkish soldiers arrive in Azerbaijan,” Nurullayev said.
“The Turkish military plays a stabilizing role in the withdrawal of the Armenian army. Azerbaijan will not agree to extend the deadline for the final withdrawal of the Armenian military from three regions (Lachin, Agdam, Kalbajar) after it extended the period for withdrawal from Kalbajar by 10 days (until November 25). The second concession to the Armenians will harm Azerbaijan," concluded the deputy R. Nurullayev. —0—
