This is heartwarming news that two nations which have been such bitter enemies are looking to a long term peaceful coexistence. This can only benefit both nations and their citizens.
So very heartwarming the ethnic cleansing has been for Armenians from Nagorno-Karabakh, and the Western hegemonic powers happily letting it go on to keep Azeri oil flowing cheaply.
Yes, it’s a relief that the war is ending, but do not construe this as some fairy-tale ending.
It feels a little overblown to me. My understanding is that Russia spurned Armenia and gave their blessing to Azerbaijan's defeat of Armenia. So it's not too surprising that Armenia didn't want Russia to broker the peace, and Azerbaijan didn't need them - they won.
There are troubles in Russo-Armenian relations, but there's no details of Azerbaijan distancing themselves from Russia. If anyone knows more, please let me know.
Besides, Azerbaijan can afford to defy russia, because their primary partner is Turkey.

There’s a good chunk of evidence of Azerbaijan distancing themselves from Russia. This doesn’t necessarily mean that Azerbaijan is equally embracing the West though. source

I changed it right after posting, but lemmy takes time to update, thanks anyway.
Everyone (meaning not the Russian federation or hegemolith) truly wishes that it means the end to this unnecessary conflict.
