Quatrième de couverture

Armenia, Nagorno-Karabakh

Essay on a political, military, moral debacle...

Armenia is a country of confines, landlocked in the middle of different states. Absent from the state scene, it was able to rise from its ashes on the occasion of the Armenian genocide of 1915 and the concomitant disappearance of two empires, Russian and Ottoman. It owes its current independence to the dismemberment of the USSR before sinking into a major war over Artsakh and suffering a humiliating defeat in 2020.

This book dissects, through the prism of treaties, the constants of regional politics, the powerlessness of the Armenian élites to preserve the sovereignty of the state and the future prospects for the South Caucasus. The diagnosis is bitter in view of the re-emergence of the Turkish power, the structuring alliances set up by Russia and the Wests efforts to regain a strong foothold in the region. The analysis - severe - reveals the inadequacy of the policies carried out for 30 years. The opportunistic choices and the agreements initialed in Washington on August 8, 2025, are its illustration. The vassalization of Armenia might be its consequence.
