Expert: Aliyev not to unleash war in Karabakh to solve domestic problems

Director of Noravank scientific educational foundation, political analyst Gagik Harutyunyan said that social unrest is unlikely in Armenia.

Azerbaijan is the 10th in the “rebellion index,” as high level of corruption, social inequality is observed in the country, what in its turn causes society’s protest, Harutyunyan told a press conference in Yerevan.

As for how the internal instability in Azerbaijan may affect the Karabakh conflict settlement, Harutyunyan noted that even being an adventurer Ilham Aliyev will hardly dare launch hostilities in Karabakh to solve his domestic problems.

“If the Azerbaijani leadership launches hostilities in Karabakh, it will be fatal for Aliyev’s clan. The popular rebellion will be inevitable in such case,” the Armenian expert concluded.
