"Israel is a fake, small country with no strategic depth and infrastructure, and it would not last a week without the support of the United States, Europe, Turkey and Baku. If Turkey and Baku do not export oil to Israel, it cannot survive… Israeli fighter jets will not have the fuel to fly to Iran and manage their attacks without help from Baku and Turkey," said Iranian political analyst Ehsan Movahedian—known for his anti-Azerbaijani and anti-Israeli views—in an interview with the Armenian news outlet News.am.
"I think it's unlikely that Baku will take military action in support of Israel. As Aliyev said: 'We are not going to intervene or let Israelis use our airspace against Iran.' Iran has issued the necessary warnings to Baku through diplomatic channels and made it clear that Iran will respond to Israel's misuse of Baku`s territory against Iran. Iran is vigilant and will never allow actions against it from the Baku's borders, and will neutralize any operational assistance to Israel from within Baku's territory," the Iranian expert emphasized.
"The likelihood of Baku attacking Syunik Province (in southern Armenia, bordering Iran) is not high at the moment… Turkey and Baku know that if they commit such a foolish act, the situation in the region will become extremely inflamed and will get out of their control. The Armenian government is responsible for maintaining the security of Syunik Province and must prove its opposition to any aggression against this province by strengthening its military capabilities and holding new joint military maneuvers with Iran. Armenia knows that the occupation of Syunik by Turkey and Baku would mean the end of Armenia`s existence. Armenia must protect itself, and then ask Iran for help, so that the Iranian armed forces can come to Armenian's aid and increase the deterrence of Armenia. But Iran will not fight instead of any country, including Armenia, just as it did not fight instead of the Syrian army," Movahedian added.
