    It expired on the 18th so all systems go last Monday. Hence all the stuff about buying NK ICBM via China.

    On Franco's comment about Ukraine supplying the motors. This must be in conjunction with their Turkey deal to assemble TB-2, presumably buying the kit from Turkey and the motors etc direct. Making statements like that at the start of a relationship really puts them in a bad position re end user certificates. They may have been used to doing much as they wanted up to now but NATO countries take EUC quite seriously, especially were they to end up in a war zone. This could endanger them getting supplies for themselves as who would believe what they are going to do with them now? Typical Ukrainians thinking with their butt.

    The lost land won't be returned anyway. Russia won't invade Azerbaijan. Azeri have quite good relation with Russia and aren't attacking Armenia but a land that even Russia recognize as Azeri. Azeri are doing things tge right way and won't make the mistake to go at war with Russia like Georgia did.

    Azerbaijan-Armenia Conflict: Israeli-Made Cluster Bombs Used in Residential Areas


    That's a war crime, as well as striking a church earlier twice, & Armenians will press charges. Aliev, if captured, can be tried in Haaghe.
    If NK is besieged & taken, Armenia may use her BMs on Azeris, they retaliate, possibly hitting a dam & NPP, killing Ks of civilians on both sides- recall the Iran-Iraq War. Will Russia & Iran it on the fence then? I doubt it.

    @ oldenburg

    I thought the point I was trying to make was obvious.  For the benefit of NK , a land corridor needs to be made between  Armenia and Artsakh. And  any populations ( human or animal) in decline, as a result of being attacked by another, need to be helped.

    Russia helps Turkey with defensive equipment. Even if Turkey is NATO.  And even once, stationed American Nukes on it's soil against Russia. And Turkey population is increasing. And Turks even attack Russia by proxy in Syria. And yet this excuse, that Armenia is NATO.

    Russia not attack Usrael. Even if Usrael attack Syria. An ally. With decreasing population. By war. And Usraelis eat Palestinian children. And make more Usrael children. Grow in population.

    Artsakh not attack Russia,  and face extermination. And no help?  So minorities vanish. Artsakhians. Palestinians. Syrians. Houthi...... It is about the world we want to see......... Only Rats running around...


    From wiki :

    ".... In 2019, the population of Turkey was 83.2 million with a growth rate of 1.39% per annum........"

This feeds my suspicion that these are MIC NATO tools and propaganda outlets masquerading as independent blogging enthusiasts, similar to bellingcat. It is doubly surprising after all the human rights blabla agenda they usually virtue signal and the well known armenian genocide. I guess a second genocide is acceptable if it somehow disadvantages Russia.

    Basically this.

    If a side is linked to Russia, it's all good to slaughter it.

    With Pro-Russia leadership the game wouldn't have been rigged because the game would not have been played at all

    Turks didn't just decide suddenly to make their move out of the blue, Armenia made that decision for them when they discarded protection that Russia was providing for the past 30 years

    They saw the opportunity that Armenia offered to them and they took it



    Russia itself IGNORED the preparations for war.
    The contracts for the LORA systems date from 2017. The Israelis literally tripled their sales to AZ from 2016 to 2019.
    Turkey made that decision because of Russian developpments in Syria, Libya and in the Caucasus.
    The fact that Turkey is taking half the gas it was supposed to take, that it is going towards an AZ/RU swap for its TAP strategy. The fact it decided to push back in Idlib and the fact it is going deep in Ukraine have NOTHING TO DO with Armenia. Nor did Turkey provoke the mess with Georgia. Turkey is trying to get as much from Russia as possible knowing that they are living on borrowed time.

    This is the grand game. Turkey is maximalizing the lack of operational flexibility from Russia. While it knows it cannot do much vs Russia is the Russians move on AZ and ARM and Georgia, it can provoke a situation in a legalese situation to which no one can oppose, unless too late.

    Now the French are basically waking the fuck up, but Italy, Spain and the Germans are pushing for non-meddling. The US is all stupid and paradoxal. On one side they slap pseudo-sanctions and put pressure on Erdogan on the other they're too happy to see the Turks pull shit vs Russia. This is going to cost them a further intervention to stop Russia from bashing Turkey to the curb in the future because an official Turkish base in AZ is non-negotiable.

    God help the Azeris when Russia will come for them/

    The prevailing perception in Tehran is that #Azerbaijan's recapture & control of #NagornoKarabakh will likely fuel Turkish/Azeri separatist sentiments & ambitions in #Iran's adjacent provinces in northwest, which could threaten its national security & territorial integrity....
    ...

    If there is any war that Iran can get involved in without getting super slammed it's this one

    It's remote, arms embrago is about to expire anyway and it won't be getting renewed, they have actual reasons to get involved and nobody gives enough shits about Armenia or Azerbaijan to anything major about it


    Embargo already expired.

    Iran can help with untouched AA and create a nass for the TB-2's to avoid and can also "reply with artillery" to incursions especially vs Azeri side.

    They seem to want to do even more. They move AD but also lot of artillery and tanks/bmp-2. Drones and ballistic missile are there too for sure.

    The likely scebario is that Iran pushes abd creates a buffer zone in NK to keep turks/azeri/alnusra away from Iranian turcophone population.

    Azeris = Turks.

    Arabs = Except refugees, most of them are pro Turkish state (even refugees are pro Turkish mostly)

    Armenians = Not many to create a problem.

    Kurds = Maybe, but they ve been trying to cause a problem but havent succeeded in anything and Turkish state is extremely experienced in how to keep them in check.

    Iran;

    Turks = at about 20 million already pissed off against corrupt Mullahs.

    Belochis, Turkmens,Arabs,Kurds, Afghans all sort of different nationalities exist in millions. Also dissidents within Iran against oppressive Mullah laws.

    Whenever they got chance, shots fired in Iran. If Turkish economy is 1x shit, Iran economy is 10x shit.

    People posting in this thread ragging on Russia for not doing this and that to "save its friend" systematically ignore that
    Armenia was regime changed. Russia has had bitter experience with all regime changed ex-USSR republics like
    Georgia, Ukraine, etc. The regime change in Armenia paved the way for this war. Not Russian "inaction". In fact,
    the war is pure bait to drag Russia into it and then have the precious NATzO west screech about Russian "aggression".

    All those Armenians who marched in favour of yet another of Washington's colour revolutions can eat shit.

    To save his own skin, Pashinyan may soon dump the West like Lukashenko did. Putin probably just waits for for him to sober up- once it happens, Russia will come & help him purge his regime, if not himself.
