Once you strip out all of the geopolitical influences. Regardless of your opinion. Azerbaijan very much believes that the Nagorno-Karabakh Region is its territory. They have a 1994 international agreement to that effect.

Azerbaijan has also long known that due to its fossil fuel wealth its vastly superior military is able to quickly defeat not only the NKR military but also the Armenian military.

So rather than provoking Azerbaijan into seizing the NKR by force. It's always been a question of deterring it. Providing it with a reason why it shouldn't seize the NKR by force.

I can't help but wonder if the US activism in late-2019/early-2020. Such as "Suicide Schiff's" Armenian Genocide bill, which she suppoted, helped provoke the 2020 war.

Setting the stage for Artsakh's ultimate defeat.
