PC: Azerbaijani victory in the Nagorno-Karabakh War

You need Russia not to help Armenia and that's it. Azerbaijan is stronger on its own.
Comparing the number of military equipment Armenia received compared to the much greater number received by Azerbaijan, it is bizarre to claim that Armenia only won because Russia helped them.
 
It is common knowledge that without Russian help, Armenia would have lost the war.

Would you mind providing a neutral source for this claim? And while you're at it, you could explain how whatever help Armenia supposedly received from Russia outweighed the enormous advantage Azerbaijan received from left-over Soviet weaponry or for example the direct participation of Russian pilots in the Azerbaijani air force?

I also don't see any explanation how exactly Russia helped Armenia during the war.

I didn't say Russia didn't help Azerbaijan. I said for Azerbaijan to win the war Russia must not help Armenia or not get involved at all. All alone Azerbaijan could have won the war.

For which you have not shown any evidence. I would say a vital part of not getting involved would be as successor of the Soviet Union to prevent the fall of Soviet weaponry in the hands of either Armenia or Azerbaijan. Such non-involvment definitely favors Armenia.
