Azerbaijan is showing signs of a change in its approach to India, according to opinion pieces cited by NDTV, after years of backing Pakistan-linked positions and distancing from India. The articles describe a period when Azerbaijan publicly condemned India’s “Operation Sindoor” and permitted Kashmir Day events conducted by the Pakistan Embassy.
The current writing frames this as a “slow warming” or “U-turn” in Azerbaijan’s posture toward India. While the sources focus on the same broad trajectory, they differ in emphasis—one asks why Azerbaijan is rethinking ties, and the other highlights the contrast between earlier alignment and the more recent shift. Both pieces present the earlier stance as the baseline for comparison, noting the public criticism and the embassy-related activities tied to Kashmir.
Taken together, the reports describe a gradual adjustment rather than an abrupt break, but they do not provide detailed, independently confirmed explanations for the change beyond the observed pattern of prior statements and permitted events.
