Cognitive Concepts
Framing Bias
The framing centers on Armenian concerns and responses to Azerbaijani actions. Headlines and emphasis are placed on Armenia's perspective, potentially overshadowing Azerbaijani viewpoints.
Language Bias
While the article strives for neutrality, the repeated emphasis on Armenian perspectives and concerns could subtly influence reader perception toward a more pro-Armenian stance. Words like "demands" when describing Azerbaijani actions may carry a slightly negative connotation.
Bias by Omission
The article focuses heavily on statements and actions from Armenian officials, giving less weight to Azerbaijani perspectives beyond their stated demands. Omission of detailed Azerbaijani justifications for their actions regarding "Western Azerbaijan" could lead to an incomplete understanding of the conflict.
False Dichotomy
The article presents a somewhat simplified view of the situation, framing it largely as a conflict between Armenian and Azerbaijani claims. Nuances regarding international involvement and potential compromises are largely absent.
Sustainable Development Goals
The article highlights tensions between Armenia and Azerbaijan regarding the return of refugees and opening of regional communications. Azerbaijan's raising of the "Western Azerbaijan" issue, seemingly as a response to Armenian calls for the return of Artsakh residents, exacerbates the conflict and hinders peacebuilding efforts. The lack of progress in negotiations on regional unblocking further illustrates the challenges to achieving sustainable peace and justice.
