Baku’s ‘strategic patience’ should be countered by a policy of ‘asymmetric strategic exhaustion’ – Vardan Voskanyan
“The foreign minister of Baku’s authoritarian regime actually threatens with the so called ‘strategic patience’ which is based on the abundance of the financial means of the regime,” Expert in Iran Vardan Voskanyan wrote on Facebook, commenting on Azerbaijani FM’s recent interview.
In Voskanyan’s words, the term was first used by the US Secretary of State with regard to Northern Korea implying a patience until one of the sides is weakened while the confronting party will make use of it and get the real chance to solve the matter to own benefit.
“I think Baku’s strategic patience should be countered by a policy of asymmetric strategic exhaustion which will be aimed to exhaust the adversary with limited resources in the moral, psychological and financial sphere within an artificially created unit named Azerbaijan,” Voskanyan wrote on is Facebook page.
