Clashes between Azerbaijan and Armenia that killed at least ten soldiers this month risk escalating into all out war in a region, said Sabine Freizer.
The statement came from director of the Europe Program of the International Crisis Group.
She said that There is a weak control of the cease-fire line by Azerbaijan and Armenia and almost no international monitoring: "Large-scale hostilities can break out accidentally, as a result of tit-for-tat responses by the sides".
According to Frezier, neither Azerbaijan nor Armenia plans an all-out military offensive in the short term: "If large-scale hostilities resume, it will be a protracted war as neither side has a huge advantage over the other. "It is also unclear how Russia and Turkey will respond. They may be drawn in due to security guarantees they have provided".
