Azerbaijan launches large-scale attack on Armenia
The border conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia has escalated, with reports of intense fighting along the dividing line. Recent events place the region at a point of extreme volatility, where accusations of mutual aggression clash with the silence of major powers. Azerbaijan has initiated a large-scale attack, and Armenia's Ministry of Defense has confirmed the use of artillery by Azerbaijani forces starting September 13.
The impact of the confrontation and international response
Available data point to a tragic toll: at least 49 Armenian soldiers have died in these border clashes. While Armenia seeks help from the international community, the scenario polarizes between those demanding sanctions against Azerbaijan and those questioning the effectiveness of the European response. Some point to the apparent inaction of the West against what is described as an attack on a sovereign country, while others analyze the geopolitical implications of the situation in the Caucasus.
The Lachin corridor blockade and humanitarian crisis
Another critical element that has materialized is the blockade of the Lachin corridor by Azerbaijan, which has been maintained for at least four days. This has left the inhabitants of Artsakh in a situation of extreme vulnerability, dependent on this route to receive essential goods such as food and medicine, in addition to suffering gas supply cuts. This point underscores the humanitarian dimension of the territorial dispute.
The geopolitical board: NATO, Russia, and alliances at stake
The analysis of the conjuncture reveals a complex network of alignments. It is debated whether Armenia has made a strategic decision to align with the West, or if, on the contrary, it is caught between the interests of regional powers. Reports mention the use of drone systems, such as the Harop, by Azerbaijan, which have impacted Armenian defense systems, including S-300 batteries, suggesting a technological escalation in the conflict.
With these events, the trajectory of the conflict points towards a greater escalation, with forecasts of more ceasefire breaks and official statements seeking to redefine zones of influence in the region. The landscape, as of this analysis, continues to offer no clear turning point.
