Armenia, having been absolutely abandoned by the Russians, is doing everything it can to keep Turkey (through Azerbaijan) from wiping it off the map.

To be fair, the Azerbaijani government hates Armenia plenty enough even without Turkey being involved.

Yes, but lack the material to move the needle without Turkish support.

Azerbaijan has more than x3 the population of Armenia, and also has oil wealth. This is very one sided.
