In 2022, the President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen describes Azerbaijan as a “reliable partner” and de facto authorizes the import of Russian gas into Europe via Azerbaijan. However, Azerbaijan is already one of the worst dictatorships in the world and has just attacked Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) to “hunt the Armenians like dogs”, in the words of dictator Aliyev.
By 2023, the “reliable partner” has actually finished cleansing Artsakh of its indigenous Armenian population and strengthened its dictatorial power.
In 2024, he hosted #COP29 to promote the fuel industry (“a gift from God”) to continue polluting the planet.
The bloodthirsty president of this so-called “reliable partner” turns again to his big Turkish brother, under the aegis of Enver Pasha, one of the three chief genocidaires of 1915. Turkish leader Erdoğan continues to deny the genocide of Ottoman Christians while promising to “finish the work of our glorious ancestors”. His unacknowledged expansionist thrusts and his pan-Turanism are a danger for Europe, for the entire West and of course for Armenia, which he intends to wipe off the map. He is already recreating a pro-Turkey Islamic state in Syria.
U. von der Leyen, in 2022 you feared running out of gas, in 2024 you fear Russia and you turn to Turkey to defend us, deliberately ignoring Ankara's desire to recreate the Ottoman Empire. You even send an additional billion euros in 2024 to help Turkey manage Syrian refugees, you are only fueling terrorism.
Aside from accumulating bad shots, is there anything you are capable of doing?
