https://www.dw.com/en/armenia-says-azerbaijan-mobilizing-troops-in-border-regions/a-66744206"Azerbaijan has massed forces along the line of contact with Nagorno-Karabakh and on the border with Armenia over the last few days," Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan told government officials while adding that "the military-political situation in our region has seriously worsened."
Pashinyan said Azerbaijan is "demonstrating its intention to undertake a fresh military provocation against Nagorno-Karabakh and Armenia."
Azerbaijan derided Armenia's statements as "yet another false political manipulation."
Wasn't Russia in some alliance with Armenia? I don't think you can put them "on the Azer side" that easily.Weird set of teams of countries backing these 2 - You got Turkey and Russia on Azer side, Americans and Iran on Armenian side.
Turkey went as far as to tell Iran not to interfere, or they will enter conflict too, if i remember correctly.
Russians showing their moral compass again, if their political elite survive Ukraine, I've no idea how any self respecting country can make any sort of deals with them.
Yes, they used to back Armenia, or at least the status quo. Azerbaijan was always much stronger militarily, but Russia's position kept that in check. That's gone now as Russia cannot guarantee anything for Armenia right now.Wasn't Russia in some alliance with Armenia? I don't think you can put them "on the Azer side" that easily.

Russian peacekeepers are supposedly meant to maintain peace between both.Wasn't Russia in some alliance with Armenia? I don't think you can put them "on the Azer side" that easily.
GoodRussian peacekeepers are supposedly meant to maintain peace between both.
They didn't interfere much last time Azers went on offensive, so armenians rightly felt hard done by and started distancing from Russia.
Don't know where they stand in that alliance now, but armenians don't want anything to do with russians anymore.
What a dragReally feels like we're on the brink of a new world war right now.
Why? This has no chance of escalating into anything like that.Really feels like we're on the brink of a new world war right now.
I was more referring to Russia.Why? This has no chance of escalating into anything like that.
Isn't Armenia in the Collective Security Treaty Organization?This is what happens when you keep pandering to the West who has done and will continue to do nothing for us. Oh well, im sure now all those attempts will pay off.
But this already is an escalation of the Ukrainian war. If Russia had not moved lots of their peacekeeping troops to fight in Ukraine Azerbaijan would probably not start a new war now.Why? This has no chance of escalating into anything like that.
I hope all CSTO members will take note of how Russia is keeping its own promises. Russia is just using them for their own benefit and don't lift a finger, if they don't see any benefit from it. The sooner the members realize that, the sooner they will leave.Isn't Armenia in the Collective Security Treaty Organization?
They've had it easy so far, so they were due for a setback.History chose the wrong side for Armenia.
That doesn’t matter when you bat your eyelashes to the West, and the Azeris are now favored under Putin for their ability to push out Russian oil and bypass the blockade. Pashinyan should have learned his lesson, sit down, and stfu. We are irrelevant in the West’s eyes on a geopolitical spectrum, and we will never be allowed into NATO. Just play the cards you’re dealt and stop trying to get new cards from the dealer. Instead we’ll eventually get invaded, the Zanzegur corridor will be established and might as well take the rest of the country while you’re at it.Isn't Armenia in the Collective Security Treaty Organization?
I hope this is sarcasm.They've had it easy so far, so they were due for a setback.
It's very obviously sarcasm.I hope this is sarcasm.
I’ve seen way too Azeri bots blasting misinformation, I can’t be sure what to believe anymore when it comes to this topic.It's very obviously sarcasm.
For those that bother to look up anything about this, they'll just learn of a region that's almost been a perpetual state of dispute and conflict for centuries, see allegations from both sides with no clear goodie or baddie and hear that it is internationally recognised as Azerbaijani territory. War is bad, invasion is bad, but they appear to be invading their own territory? De-occupying? etc.Weird how no one gave a crap about this, oh wait the aggressor is a US ally. Makes sense.
Its as if my people's fate is to suffer for all eternity until we are fully wiped out.
It’s not like they’ve kept the Armenian population (of Karabach) in blockade for months now, causing food shortages.That could change depending on how they treat the Armenian population, or if they show signs of escalating aggression toward Armenia.
Yeah... which has been condemned by the US and others, but that means nothing as we well know.It’s not like they’ve kept the Armenian population (of Karabach) in blockade for months now, causing food shortages.
