Re: Nakhichevan

So if Armenia goes to war over Nakhichevan, they would have to face
more Kurds that Azeris?
If they do go to war, and if we do win? what possitive outcomes
will it have on Armenia?
And what challenges will Armenia face?

Not at the present moment but the fact that the azeris are leaving and Kurds are coming in is a telling story. To win a war like this and to maintain the victory, you need to either have local support or you will need to drive the population out. Having at least a sizable Kurdish minority in this poor enclave makes the job a little easier since we can make deals with the turk-hating Kurds. The main challenge Armenia will face is the 9 km stretch of border with Turkey. It could be devastating if Turkey decides to interfere and invade Nakhichevan and then through it, Armenia. Keep in mind that Russia only guards the borders with Turkey and Iran and not with "azerbaijan". The positive outcomes are enormous as Jirair Sefilian details in the last part of his interview.

However, it is obvious that at the present moment, we are bogged down with the Artsakh war and a direct war will not happen in the near future. But this should not prevent us from waging an information war filled with propaganda against this blockaded territory. And as long as we continue to not have a single Armenian in the region, we face a big obstacle. Jiro has a couple of debatable solutions to the Nakhichevan problem.

Re: Nakhichevan

Thank you again, but since the turks hate the kurds, won't the turks actually
help us in that war, and since now a days Armenia and Turkey are thinking of
opening the borders, why would Turkey even think of attacking us?

No because the Kurds will most probably never become a majority in Nakhichevan but they could potentially become a large minority in the region which we could use to our own benefit.

Turkey would possibly attack us IF we attacked Nakhichevan but this will not happen in the near-future so don't worry about it. It would attack because Turkey does not give a sh!t about Armenia and would like nothing more than to find an excuse to finally crush us. As much as Armenia and Turkey are negotiating on opening the border, the talks are very fragile since Az and Turkey are still allies.

Re: Nakhichevan

The Armenian government should plan a lot of threats
to Azergayjan, and just keep bombing them with threats, until
Azergayjan finally breaks, then we attack!

Armenia planning an attack? Oh please!

Armenia is too forgiving and nice to ever plan attacks.

Although we have the best military in the South Caucuses there is a 5% chance of Armenia deciding to attack Azerbaijan. You are forgetting that it is way to harder to attack then to defend. Us attacking Azerbaijan is going to get Turkey into the war and then Russia and Iran will help Armenia. Your basically causing World War III.

Re: Nakhichevan

So if Azerbajian attacks us? turkey won't have the right to attack us?

Re: Nakhichevan

They don't care what rights they have they will do anything to protect their ally.

Re: Nakhichevan

But don't you think even if Turkey attacked us, we would crush them
if Iran and Russia helps us? Russia has incredible weapons and war
technology, Iran has nuclear power. Turkey will be gone in a matter
of time.

Re: Nakhichevan

Then America would join in.

Israel too and every other country.
