Expert warns of possible involvement of Syunik in case of war between Israel and Iran
YEREVAN, June 13. /ARKA/. If Israel's strikes on Iran continue and escalate into a full-fledged war, Syunik may become one of the most likely areas of pressure on Iran, said Armenian Turkologist Varuzhan Geghamyan.

Israel attacked Iran at night, resulting in deaths and injuries. There is destruction in various areas.

"Azerbaijan, a de facto ally of Israel, which Israel has literally "stuffed" with weapons and ammunition in recent months, will most likely be involved in this issue. Especially considering that the Turkish Armed Forces are currently in Nakhichevan under the guise of exercises and will remain there until at least the end of June, thereby ensuring pressure on the western side of Syunik," Geghamyan wrote in TG.

He suggested that this is one of the most likely scenarios for the development of events.

"Figuratively speaking, Armenia is sitting on a keg of gunpowder, and the smell of gunpowder is deliberately hidden from society, replaced by a daily "spraying" of cheap perfumes - "investments", "study", etc. At the same time, national institutions are weakened, while in the current Middle East crisis, the Armenian Church can play an important role not only within the country, but also at the external level, given its role, respect and connections in this region," Geghamyan noted.

According to the expert, the situation is extremely tense and fraught with new clashes and the threat of a full-scale war.
