I have been to Artsah (aka Nagorno Karabakh), Armenia, and Azerbaijan many times. I met people who took part in the conflict, or at least one way or other were affected by it. I have also seen a level of destruction the conflict caused.
I don't want to talk about history or take sides, but will say that neither Armenians or Azeris have interest in latest flash of violence. Only more innocent people will die, die for nothing. The real interest in stocking this is for the one that sell arms for both sides, and maybe the one that is playing a geopolitical game in the region, think Caspian oil pipeline to EU.
Believe me, people affected in the area don't want more of this....
