"The shelling of the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan pipeline by the Armenian Armed Forces was to be expected.
The Armenians made a similar attempt in July of this year when provocation was committed on the Tovuz section of the state border. And that was preparation for larger strikes. "
American journalist and human rights expert Irina Tsukerman stated this in an interview with Report.
"All this must also be considered in the light of the information war that Armenia is waging against Azerbaijan, trying to whitewash its crimes. For example, all this talk about Syrian militants in Karabakh. They want to damage the image of Azerbaijan. It is also an economic war. It is necessary to impose sanctions on Armenian officials. These pipelines of international importance have nothing to do with the fighting in Karabakh, "she said.
She noted that the world should not allow Armenia to continue laughing at international law.
"The world turns a blind eye on this since the people who stand behind Armenia have their interests. These people have ties with the European Union, and any harsh actions are suppressed at this level. Among them, there are those who, in every possible way, contribute to the internationalization of the conflict to have more influence on the energy markets," Tsukerman stressed.
