US press: Russia celebrates victory in Karabakh, EU - defeat

90

The EU countries have lost the last remnants of their influence on the states of the South Caucasus. And Russia and Turkey became the winners in the unexpectedly aggravated military conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan.

This opinion was expressed by the head of the "Greater Europe" program at the European Council on Foreign Relations, Nicu Popescu, in his article published by the American edition of Politico.



The author believes that such a success of Moscow significantly undermines the reputation of the European Union. In his opinion, Russia celebrates victory in Nagorno-Karabakh, and the EU - defeat.

After several unsuccessful attempts to resolve the Karabakh conflict, undertaken by its participants with the participation of international mediators, the Kremlin managed to bring the warring parties to the negotiating table and provide guarantees for peace. Turkey managed to achieve victory for its ally - Azerbaijan, to demonstrate the effectiveness of its drones and military advisers without damaging relations with Moscow.

While the EU was inactive, demonstrating its uselessness, Moscow and Ankara demonstrated their political will and demonstrated military strength. It is Turkey and Russia that now dominate the regions neighboring the European Union.

According to Popescu, as long as the EU continues to ignore the methods of force pressure, using only economic and political leverage, it will continue to lose influence. Of course, getting involved in every armed conflict and sending your troops to "hot spots" is also not the best option. But the expert believes that the European Union should be more actively involved in military partnership with states located on its southern and eastern flanks, paying special attention to cooperation with them in the field of intelligence and cybersecurity.

Although, most likely, it is too late for European countries to think about it. They are too dependent on the United States.

      I would not count the latter among the celebrants.
      We have adopted the most acceptable option for ourselves. To fit in with weapons and specialists for Karabakh in order to turn Azerbaijan into Ukraine by the warmth of relations, break up relations with Turkey and formalize a protracted bloody conflict? Sorry, but that was not an option. Loss of credibility by the defeat of the "ally" in the eyes of the countries .... Central Asia and the BV and LA? Are you seriously?
      And any of our military interventions would be displayed in the usual color for the West. Our soldiers are bombing hospitals, devouring babies, Russian aggression.

          Moreover, complete laughing In Armenia, everyone is looking for Pashinyan to lynch. Hiding of course in the largest Embassy laughing Will be taken out as a diplomatic post, like Uri in a suitcase. But the funniest thing was taught by the Guarantor of the Constitution of Armenia. He supposedly learns about the surrender from the press. So dissociated himself, like Prezik, but nothing to do with. A personal friend of the royal family and the handsome Prince Charlie himself, though old, bald and with artificial teeth. "Worthy" President, "Worthy" Premier, "great" not very great Armenia.

            For some reason, it seems to me that Pashinyan will fight more intelligently and steadily for power than for Karabakh. And he will be able to defend his presidency, unlike Karabakh. And in this he and Soros, and Europe, and the United States will provide real help.

                  So far, I can see the great joy expressed by the Azeris about the "great victory" from the downed Russian helicopter. By the way, the great victory was celebrated by the Azeris under the flags of Turkey, which is so "closely related" to the Russians, which today exercises external control over Azeria.
                  "The happiness of the Azeri victory" could be seen by all Muscovites (and less Petersburg residents), who, apparently, took great pleasure in participating in the rides of brunettes under Turkish flags along the streets of OUR capitals in connection with the downing of OUR helicopter.
                  And if the residents of the capital do not care to contemplate the joy of the Azeris over the death of our military (shot down by these same Azeris!), Then in our next elections we can easily see some type of Pashinyan at the head of Russia, who controls us under the leadership of Soros.

                    Further (and this is no longer about the indifference of the capital's residents).
                    Hardly anyone from the capital understands that for 100 years Azerbaijanis have been assimilating the capital's residents to suit their needs, needs and other wishes :: no one noticed that they took most of the cash turnover into their own hands? And does anyone foresee WHAT could happen if traders of various kinds of fast food stop the circulation of cash in their trading businesses for at least a week or two, simply keeping it in their stash boxes?
                    Yeltsin's coup will seem like a kindergarten!
                    Do these Azeris treat us as friends and brothers?
                    Of course not! From any point of view, they treat us as masters, and very little time remains until the moment that they take on the role of janissaries and to whom will they arrange a "happy life" in the first place?
                    That's right, the highlanders: Israeli and Armenian - and their impunity will be covered by our law enforcement agencies, which today are "grazing" so well now in vegetable rows.
                    And what is funny, the Azeris are now found in M-ve in number MORE than they are found in their homeland, in Baku.
                    Think, draw conclusions, compare with Germany ...
                    Those who, in the happy excitement of the holiday, got into the lens of a security camera, especially under the Turkish flag, should be deprived of their citizenship or residence permit and deported as an enemy of Russia.
                    Say no article? So contact your deputy and let him initiate the drafting and adoption of such a law, otherwise the European occupation of foreigners will pour in to us too - THEY ARE SO NEEDING OUR SPACES !!!

                    Yes, we all watched the celebration on their part. Just what were they celebrating? With this rate of advance, they would have taken all of Narabakh without any problems. After the downed Mi, they abruptly signed an agreement and we brought in our peacekeepers. So maybe they were celebrating that they managed to avoid a war with us? No matter how anyone spoke, but after Azerbaijan's military aggression against Armenia, we had, according to the agreement, to come to the aid of the Armenians.

                      1. There was no aggression on the part of Azeria against Armenia - the Treaty can be left alone.
                      2. Azerbaijanis danced on the bodies of our soldiers, killed by Azeris, being on OUR territory, AS ON THE OCCUPIED.
                      3. We have no right to allow us to celebrate victories over us by our very presence at these races under enemy banners.
                      4. These races are intended to show us that neither the Russians nor our territory are for them something that must be respected and appropriately crouched if they do not want to be extradited ONLY for disrespecting the heroes of the titular nation.
                      5. Appeal to your deputies expressing displeasure with the behavior of foreigners on our territory in relation to the heroes who died for Russia and demanding the application of the Law, suppressing such shameful behavior in relation to the country of residence, prohibiting the display of enemy banners during periods of enemy victories over the Russian Armed Forces.

                        So I will explain: they were happy that they shot down OUR (Russian!) Helicopter, while 2 of our pilots were killed - and they celebrated this as a Turkic-international victory.
                        And M-va is still Russian territory, not Azeri, and we have no right to allow the trade invaders to behave like that in M-va.

      It is not so important who won from the ceasefire, Armenians or Azerbaijanis, the main thing is that the European media and local "experts", as true instigators, are trying to incite anyone who does not like the presence of Russian peacekeepers in Karabakh for aggression.
      Since the Armenians in fact lost the previously occupied territories around Karabakh, it means that they will be incited to confrontation with both peacekeepers and Russia as a whole, pushing out the EU and the United States as the true defenders of the Armenians, whom Russia crossed the road with the Turks, which means that Russia is an unreliable partner of Armenians in contrast to the "kind and loyal" Europeans and Americans.

          Maybe it’s easier to substitute, shake off and live in peace, knowing that at least from here "will not fly."
          And in order not to fly from Azeria, you still have to work and work ...
          How?

          To begin with, remove the military contingent and other Turkish proxies from Baku, albeit in a sabotage manner (sabotage is different (whether an act of catching several in uniform, but without pants, and launching them into the garden of the residence will be called sabotage!).

      It's not about winners and losers. In fact, the US press, to which the news authors refer, directly says that the war in Karabakh is beneficial to the EU and the US. In principle, like any other military conflict near the borders of Russia. Formally, this is an open call for war. And such appeals in the media should not be left without legal assessment and procedural measures. Otherwise, a precedent is created with possible calls for a war with Russia, which can also remain without response.

Except for the small number of Armenians, and even smaller number of Azerbaijanis, few people care about it. And besides other immigrants from the USSR, few people know about this at all. And in general, this is not even the third news - but I don't know how strong it is. It is not clear who was elected president in the end, in Georgia (which is not Georgia) the second round of electing as many as two senators, which determines who will get the majority in the Senate (while the Republicans are ahead with a score of 50:48), the virus is disgraceful, what the hell is Karabakh?

      I don't really understand what we won. Our peacekeepers have become hostages to the goodwill of the Ottomans. For in the event of an attack on them, well, for example, the barmaleevs, who will help them? There is no common border. Georgia will close its own, we will put Azerbaijan too - and then there remains only a war and a strike on the territory of Azerbaijan. In order to release our grouping. And then the Ottomans will kick in - and away we go .. Why should Russia put itself in a knowingly dependent position? For what?

        For example, you are aware that the NGO belonged to the White Tsar, i.e. Russia?

    We have a national sport - government. Everyone knows what the president-prime minister-defense minister needs to do. But I would not want to be in the place of any of them. Because I do not see a good, correct move, so that all bad people feel bad at once, and all good things feel good. You are dragged into a fight by a whole series of brazen, cynical provocations, and you are constantly forced to choose between bad and very bad. And the most disgusting thing - it will only get worse, that is, more cynical, impudent and with more blood. Alas..... No. request

      And how did Russia undermine its reputation? How can you explain it? or just poop on the fan !! In fact; Russia stopped the war, saved the Armenians from slaughter and extermination! Gave Armenia time to restore the army and bring a normal government to power! Azerbaijan was able to keep from complete absorption by Turkey! Preserving business agreements with both belligerent countries and not getting involved in a war with Turkey! And that's just what is in sight! But we are not given to know the personal agreements with Aliyev, Erdogan and Pashinyan!

    While the EU was inactive, demonstrating its uselessness, Moscow and Ankara demonstrated their political will and demonstrated military strength. It is Turkey and Russia that now dominate the regions neighboring the European Union.

    It is not clear where Popeska saw his neighbors in the Caucasus, and what kind of influence could be spoken about to the EU countries - who have either migrants or abortions. (unless Macron's sluggish attacks on the Sultan are all the influence).

    Peace is needed in that region, peace at any cost. There will be a need to enforce peace even by force of arms. A situation may turn out: Pashinyan will be overthrown, the new leaders will not comply with the signed agreement, without transferring the indicated regions to Azerbaijan.

    The whole rapid course of events speaks only of pre-prepared script... I will never believe that such a trick could really be done in a few hours of improvisation. But why was Pashinyan allowed to prove something else to someone? How many people would have been spared if it had started a week earlier !!! They fought on the sofas with varied success, and "who is supposed to" have already drawn zones of influence. I don’t believe that the Americans have completely blinded the situation because of the elections. Theirs "who is supposed to" also do not sleep, which means that the GDP "Wishlist" in the South Caucasus will be cooler for today !!!

    I can smell this "victory" in PR .. Now they can kill ours from both sides, but the Turks can arrange provocations if we start pressing them in Syria. ! The most interesting is yet to come, here Donbass will catch fire, then Abkhazia, etc. We will torture the peacekeepers to drive along our borders amid the snide laughs of the "Western partners" ... Of course, I'm exaggerating a little, but it's better to perebzdit than to be underdog and bear losses.

    Armenia claims that Azerbaijan has exhausted its reserves. This is not true. Back in 2016, the military budget of Azerbaijan was larger than the budget of the whole of Armenia.

    Economy of the two countries. Oil, a developed economy, Azerbaijan's creditworthiness are capable of dictating conditions to the Armenian economy, suppressing it.

    Income to the budget of Azerbaijan for 2018 - $ 11,8 billion.

    Income to the budget of Armenia for 2018 is $ 2,8 billion (4 times less). laughing lol

    This opinion was expressed by the head of the "Greater Europe" program at the European Council on Foreign Relations, Nicu Popescu, in his article published by the American edition of Politico.

    .... head of the Greater Europe program at the European Council on Foreign Relations, Nicu Popescu .... (Wikipedia
    European thought factory conducting analyzes on foreign and security policy topics. The organization aims to strengthen the common and coordinated policy of European countries in these areas.)
    We could not find anything about Nika Popescu on the internet.
    Politico is distributed free of charge in Washington DC and Manhattan, New York.
    The appearance of this article in the Russian media looks like an order to justify its own weak results in preventing the war in Karabakh, then in inaction in the military conflict that happened and, as a consequence, the results of the ended Armenian-Azerbaijani confrontation, which led to the fragmentation of the Russian presence in the Transcaucasus and the strengthening of Turkey's role ( NATO countries) in the region.
    When on the street you will be handed out free reading material with articles of unrecognizable authorship, in any case, there is a reason to think about the quality of this material.
