James Stavridis: Our intelligence assessments found that the Armenians were almost certain to win if things came seriously to blows
Retired U.S. Navy admiral and former supreme allied commander of NATO James Stavridis referred in his article in Bloomberg to the situation in Nagorno Karabakh.
He stressed that during his work in NATO their intelligence assessments found that the Armenians were almost certain to win if things came seriously to blows.
“Over the four years I was at NATO, there were a number of half-hearted military thrusts by the Azeris, which were easily stopped by the Armenians. Our intelligence assessments found that the Armenians were almost certain to win if things came seriously to blows. The Russian Federation was supplying arms and training to both sides, and the Russians actually had a somewhat calming effect,” he wrote.
