  • how bad is the blockade for azeris?

    how bad is the blockade for azeris? Im sure having closed borders with armenia is still problematic for them, but how bad? are the azeri-georgian roads much more accessible and well maintained than for armenians?

    how bad does it affect them?

    Armenians, just ignore this anti-Armenian turkMongol, we do not have to spend any time discussing with our enemy. I don't understand why the Admin does not ban this **** turkMongol.

        I agree. Who would like to answer? At first guess, I'd say the blockade solely exists to isolate Armenia, though it definitely limits the true potential for trade between Armenia and it's Turkic neighbour states.

        It is a political move made by Ankara, a move made with given economic costs that hurt Armenia during the 90s more than it did Azerbaijan or Turkey, happily circumventing the blockade with railways and oil pipelines through Georgia, something Armenia was made not to participate in.

        As such, Armenia's only lifeblood came through non-adjacent Russia (forcing Armenia to compromise Javakh in order to deal with Georgia to leave an economic and logistical passage to linking the two nations) and through Iran. You could say, to a lesser extent, American interest in Armenia provided some jobs and capital, but for very shortrun interest that if overestimated in its worth are actually dangerous to our republic as they seek to isolate us from our more important beneficiaries.

        Azerbaijan and Turkey rather, danced along with the US in the meantime, as this was their allegiance, that is until the catastrophe of the Georgian government in August. They were free to trade with a much larger international market through this political apparatus than what Armenia could ever hope for, especially considering the blockade.

        More detailed analysis, or any corrections on my own could certainly be contributed to the document I'm trying to build. Anyone else want to add?

          I think the only negative affect it has had on Azerbaijan and Turkey is that they have to spend more money building pipelines that have to take detours through Georgia instead of going straight through Armenia. Other than that, I'd say nothing.

          Key thing to remember is that Azerbaijan has only one blockade to deal with, Armenia has two.

            I agree. Too many turks recently; they're ruining the forum. There has to be some sort of ulterior motive behind this question like: "it's the Armenian's fault there's a blockade and it affects Azeris too".

                Why are you starting threads that will provoke Armenians? To what good does it serve?

                  Armenia is actually richer than azerbaijan, do not let the bs GDP figures fool you. azerbaijan has a larger population, more potential than Armenia yet it is still behind Armenia on almost all factors of development. Outside of baku azerbaijan is s*it.
                  For the first time in more than 600 years, Armenia is free and independent, and we are therefore obligated
                  to place our national interests ahead of our personal gains or aspirations.

                    i never thought this thread would be provocative. apparently it is.

                    i thought since you guys must pay more attention to azerbaijan than i do, that you would know more and comment on question informatively. I get a tommy award - nice.
