Karabağ Savaşının Ekonomik Sonuçları: İşgal Döneminde Azerbaycan Bölgelerinde Yağma

Ermenistan-Azerbaycan Dağlık Karabağ sorununun nedenleri arasında siyasi sebepler kadar ekonomik çıkarlar da önemli yer tutmaktadır. 1991'den 2020'ye kadar Ermenistan'ın Azerbaycan'a verdiği ekonomik zarar "Karabağ savaşının ekonomik sonuçları - işgal sırasında Azerbaycan topraklarında yağmalama" isimli makalede incelenmiştir. Makalede, resmî Erivan ve sözde Dağlık Karabağ Cumhuriyeti'nin yöneticileri tarafından Azerbaycan'ın işgal altındaki topraklarındaki enerji, maden ve tarım kaynaklarının yağmalanması gerçeği belgeleri ile birlikte yer almıştır. Aynı zamanda 29 yıllık işgal zamanı Ermenistan devletine bağlı ülke dışında faaliyette bulunan şirketler Dağlık Karabağ’daki topraklarda sömürgecilik yaparak yüksek meblalarda haksız kazanç elde etmiştir. Ermenistan’ın Karabağdaki sömürgecilik faaliyetleri bununla da sınırlanmamış, aynı zamanda demografik değişikliklere başvurarak Azerbaycan hava sahasını yasa dışı olarak kullanmıştır. Azerbaycan kaynaklarının yabancı işletme sahiplerine devredilmesi sonucunda Rusya, ABD, Hindistan, İsveç, Lübnan, İngiltere, Almanya ve Fransa gibi ülkelere Karabağ’daki şirketlerini konumlandırmaları için koşullar sağlanmıştır. Bununla ilgili işgal sırasında ve sonrasında Azerbaycan Cumhurbaşkanı İlham Aliyev defalarca ilgili makamlara, ilgili uluslararası merciler ve mekanizmalar dahilinde hukuki bir değerlendirme yapılması için çağrıda bulunarak, işgal altındaki Azerbaycan topraklarının yağma ve yasa dışı kullanımına dikkat çekmiştir. Makalenin amacı, yukarıda bahsedilen gerçekleri dünya kamuoyuna aktarmak ve bilim insanlarına Ermenistan'ın işlediği sıragelen ve bitmek bilmeyen suçların hukuki değerlendirmesini yapabilmeleri için bir kaynakça oluşturmaktır. Çalışma sonucunda işgal sürecinde Karabağ'da iş yapan Ermenistan ile müttefik firmalar bir araya getirilmeye çalışılmıştır.

Economic Results of The Karabakh War: Plundering in The Territories of Azerbaijan During The Occupation Period

Among the causes of the Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, economic interests are as important as political motives. The economic damage caused by Armenia to Azerbaijan from 1991 to 2020 is examined in the article "The economic consequences of the Karabakh war - plundering of Azerbaijani lands during the occupation". The article covers the fact of looting of energy, mining and agriculture resources in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan by the administrators of the official Yerevan and the fictional Nagorno-Karabakh Republic. At the same time, during the 29-year occupation period, companies affiliated to the Armenian stade operating outside the country have gained unfair profits in high amountsby colonizing the lands in Nagorno-Karabakh. Colonial activities of Armenia in Karabakh were not limited to this, at the same time, they used Azerbaijan's airspace illegally by resorting to demographic changes. As a result of the transfer of Azerbaijani resources to foreign business owners, conditions were provided for countries such as Russia, USA, India, Sweden, Lebanon, England, Germany and France to position their companies in Karabakh. During and after the occupation period, President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev repeatedly called the relevant authorities for a legal assessment within the relevant international authorities and mechanisms, and grab attention to the plundering and illegal use of the occupied Azerbaijani lands. The aim of the article is to convey the above-mentioned facts to the world public opinion and to create a bibliography so that scholars can make a legal assessment of the regular and endless crimes committed by Armenia. As a result of the investigation, an attempt was made to bring together Armenia and allied companies which are doing business in Karabakh during the occupation process.
