Azerbaijan is by far the worse actor of the pair, with openly imperialist desires and multiple unprovoked campaigns against Armenia. However, despite this, they still enjoy support from the US because the Turks hate the Armenians, and the yanks need the Turks a lot more than they need Armenia.
So, Azerbaijan continues to enjoy preferential treatment with the West because of the Turkish connection, while Armenia is stuck having to cosy up with fucking Russia's CSTO and Iran, both of whom being useless cunts that threw them under the bus as soon as the Azeris tried anything. Russia even had the audacity to demand that Armenia send them aid against Ukraine after already hanging them out to dry.
In conclusion: fuck the Turks.
