The Question of Azerbaijan

On August 9 Azerbaijani troops captured Artsvashen, a pocket of Armenian territory within western Azerbaijan. This latest fighting in a four-and-a-half-year conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan sent Armenia a member of the mutual security pact signed by six former Soviet republics in May pleading with its fellow members to intervene militarily on its side. The territorial dispute is fueled by a centuries-old animosity between Armenians and Turkic people, of whom Azeris are just one variant. The polling on June 7, however, went as expected-in favor of Abul Faz Etchibey.
