Azerbaijan’s hypocritical moaning over the repercussions of Baku-initiated aggression against Nagorno Karabakh Republic is old news, Armenia’s Deputy Foreign Affairs Minister said, commenting on Azeri officials’ concern over Armenia and Artsakh military might combined with Baku threats of renewed war.

According to Shavarsh Kocharian, the only change is Azeri officials’ shift from whining aggressiveness to aggressive whining, which is explainable. “Baku has to justify itself to people who demand to know to what use the billions, spent on weaponry, were put. Azerbaijan is yet to explain why the military rhetoric didn’t work. Aliyev's ruling clan is now in a standstill – up against its own people,” the Armenian official said.
