Azerbaijani economy and military build up

The vice speaker of the Azeri parliament, Ziafet Askerov, made a statement on December 10 concerning non recognition of the separatist regime in Karabakh. According to Askerov, Armenia does not respect international justice and the international community does not put enough pressure on Armenia, therefore Askerov concluded that the Azeri economy should be focusing on its military. When asked if any military actions in the region were likely to start, the vice speaker stated that in the near future everything will become clear.
