Four Decades of Conflict and Still Stuck in the Same Spot!
Have you ever thought the conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia would ever be resolved? Don’t hold your breath! The leaders of the two countries, Ilham Aliyev and Nikol Pashinyan, met again in Abu Dhabi, but what did they achieve? Nothing!
Another Round, No Progress
At the meeting on July 10, both sides confirmed they would continue talks on sensitive issues like border demarcation. But did anyone expect a miracle? No! The conflict, lasting nearly 40 years, is still ongoing, and both sides only promise to work on building trust.
Nagorno-Karabakh – The Heart of the Conflict
Remember, in September last year, Azerbaijan regained full control over the Nagorno-Karabakh region, which had been under the control of ethnic Armenian forces with Armenia’s support for decades. Although in March this year both sides agreed on a potential peace deal, today in Abu Dhabi there was no sign of finalizing that agreement.
Why Nothing Changes?
Four decades of conflict, thousands of lives lost, and we keep seeing the same stories, the same meetings, the same empty words. Are the leaders stuck in a vicious cycle? Or is this just another show for the public?
What’s Next?
Both sides have committed to continuing bilateral talks and implementing confidence-building measures. But honestly, how many more meetings will it take before we see real peace?
Conclusion
While the world watches, the conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia still smolders. Four decades have passed, and we’re still at square one. Will there ever be a real breakthrough, or are we doomed to this endless loop?
