Azerbaijan’s delay in committing to a peace agreement suggests a strategy of coercion to extract unilateral concessions and weaken Armenia’s sovereignty. The international community must go beyond praise and apply real pressure to ensure a fair, enforceable peace to stop the cycle of aggression.

There is clearly something momentous in the air, and I don't mean the aroma of budding apricot trees, the unusual sight of Georgian soccer fans in Yerevan, yet another nasty virus wave, or the municipality's self-righteous campaign of tree annihilation. No, the explosive atmosphere stems from the looming, yet still unlikely “peace deal” with Azerbaijan, whose vague details alternatively suggest a potential new era of stability, or a horrific epilogue to a five-year chronicle of aggression and collective humiliation. Does the art scene reflect this sense of running on the knife's edge?

հայաստանյան լրատվամիջոցներում գենդերային ապատեղեկատվությանը, հիմնական թիրախներին ու վտանգավոր կարծրատիպերի վերարտադրման հետևանքներին ու հասարակական ազդեցություններին անդրադարձող հոդվածի ՁայնաԳիրը։

Armenia’s state-funded housing program is transforming border settlements, providing thousands of families with new homes while boosting local economies. With strong demand leading to expansion, the initiative is revitalizing rural communities, increasing property values, and encouraging both local and displaced residents to settle and thrive.

Yerevan's ongoing transportation reform, launched in 2017, highlights the lack of strategic planning, leadership and accountability. Without a comprehensive approach, clear oversight and implementation, any reform process will not fulfill its intended goal: to benefit the public.

Since early March, horrific massacres targeting Alawite and Christian communities have unfolded in Syria’s coastal region. A government-imposed blackout has obscured the true death toll, while international indifference enables ongoing atrocities.

Armenia and Azerbaijan have finalized peace negotiations, with Yerevan accepting Baku’s proposals on the withdrawal of third-party forces on the border and all international legal claims. However, Baku insists Armenia amend its constitution to remove alleged territorial claims as a prerequisite to signing a peace treaty.

Azerbaijan employs coercive tactics to pressure Armenia into political concessions. Davit Petrosyan examines Aliyev's strategy, Armenia's vulnerabilities, and the risks of dropping legal claims. He argues that, beyond military strengthening, Armenia must develop its own coercive strategy targeting Aliyev’s key fears and vulnerabilities, effectively deterring Azerbaijan.

The sham trials of Nagorno-Karabakh’s former leaders and other Armenian prisoners in Baku expose Azerbaijan’s state-sponsored hatred against Armenians, fueling animosity, obstructing peace efforts and reinforcing Aliyev’s authoritarian grip.
