Turn to the West: Armenia considers it inappropriate to conduct CSTO exercises on its territory

Armenia's turn to the West is becoming more and more obvious. More recently, Nikol Pashinyan criticized Russian peacekeepers for their alleged inaction in the Lachin corridor. Now Yerevan refuses to conduct the CSTO exercises "Indestructible Brotherhood-2023" on its territory.

It is worth noting that the above-mentioned maneuvers were agreed upon by the members of the organization in advance and were supposed to take place this year. However, the Armenian Defense Ministry declared their inexpediency, about which the department informed the CSTO Joint Headquarters in writing.

Commenting on the actions of the Ministry of Defense, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said that at least this year the exercises will definitely not take place.

We consider it inappropriate to conduct exercises in Armenia in the current situation

Pashinyan stressed.

At first glance, it may seem that the Armenian leader is thus trying to put pressure on his allies in the CSTO, in particular Russia, and "spur" them to more decisive actions to resolve the situation in the Lachin corridor.

However, if you pay attention to Pashinyan's New Year's speech, then the conclusion suggests itself that the Armenian prime minister is frankly "flirting" with the West.

In particular, the politician noted that from May 2021 to September 13, 2022, Yerevan’s security allies (obviously meaning the CSTO) took the position of an observer, leaving Armenia face to face with its geopolitical opponents.

At the same time, Pashinyan thanked certain international organizations and individual countries that, unlike Armenia’s allies, “remained indifferent” to the problems of his country, but at the same time they are not bound by any obligations with Yerevan.

Does he think that the West will return the lost lands to him? Well, let them fight with Azerbaijan and Turkey.

[Pravodel]

... let them wrestle with Azerbaijan and Turkey

I forgot how agreements and alliances with Turkey end for the Armenians ... Well, let him remember ...

It makes no sense for him to butt heads if they follow the same course together ... Everyone knows which one. But, it is unfortunate that we do not have practical experience to put our people. We play white and fluffy.

What course? Pashinyan wants to return the lost lands, and Azerbaijan did not start hostilities for this. Where did you see one course?

[Scientist]

What does he want back? Armenia has not yet recognized Karabakh. This is the first. Secondly, when Azerbaijan started the war, how did Armenia help Karabakh, besides screaming to introduce Russian troops? Troops, weapons?

What does he want back?

Lost lands.

"Armenia has not recognized Karabakh until now"

Yes, I didn't acknowledge it. And at one time, he voiced the reason. Like they were afraid of the imposition of sanctions and a negative reaction, you know who.

"Second, when Azerbaijan started the war, how did Armenia help Karabakh, besides shouting to bring in Russian troops? With troops, weapons?"

It's like that. But they want to return. Here, too, one can see the desire to sit on two chairs at the same time. And return the land, and stay clean in front of the West. Do the dirty work with someone else's hands.

[saigon]

In general, the Armenians call that region Artsakh, because Karabakh is the Turkic name Black Garden.
Yes, dividing the land there, oh, is not a grateful thing, nearby Iran and the Persians can also fit in a little.
Moreover, such a smallness is found that there are many Azerbaijanis in Iran and there are already rumors that the Azerbaijanis need to unite within the framework of the great (and how else) Iran.
They are rumors, as the Korean proverb says - the truth is that a rumor will not come out of the gate and the walls will not stop.

[IVZ]

But, it is unfortunate that we do not have practical experience to put our people.

There is not only experience, but also opportunities. "Own people" must rely on someone in power and law enforcement agencies, and not just on some undeciding part of society. Those. need preparation for this is not impromptu. The US is doing such things on a global scale.

[fruc]

At the same time, Pashinyan thanked certain international organizations and individual countries....

Here, both the United States and France have tried. In vain did they send their own political troops there. What next statement can we expect from Mr. Pashinyan now?

[former soldier]

When turning to the West, what will Pashinyan do when Armenian asphalt pavers return en masse from Russia?

[Murmur 55]

Former soldier , do you think they will be massively returned? I don't think anything like this will happen.

[former soldier]

Former soldier hi, do you think they will be returned MASSIVELY? I don't think anything like this will happen.

Of course not. We are civilized people.
Just tenders can be held somehow differently.

[Postcode]

Just, among the asphalt pavers to find Armenians, you still have to try))))

[Uprun]

Then Anapa and Gelendzhik will be 2/3 empty.............

[former soldier]

Just, among the asphalt pavers to find Armenians, you still have to try))))

But you understand what kind of asphalt pavers we are talking about.

[fuel oil]

This must be done now and immediately, to return everyone. Their homeland is in danger, comedy residents and other business comrades should be in the forefront of the defenders of Artsakh. It is not in vain that the Turks are building a military base on Ararat, and the patriots of Armenia are blocking ours and protesting in Gyumri. Result will not keep you waiting.

In advance, it was necessary to return the Armenian "builders and traders from Russia to their historical homeland, Armenia. Maybe now no one was talking about a turn to the west. And Pashinyan was not in power. Even the Armenians become more cunning than the Jews ... The most cunning of the Armenians turned out to be Pashinyan ...

[Nyrobsky]

Quote: 30 vis

The most cunning of the Armenians turned out to be Pashinyan.

This Pashinyan for Armenia will turn into the same disaster as Gorbachev for the USSR and Yeltsin for Russia. Only if Russia, having sufficient human and natural resources, backed up by the presence of nuclear weapons, was able to stay on the edge of the abyss, then Armenia will never rise on steamed eggplants and squash caviar. It still exists thanks only to the favorable attitude of Russia and Iran, which does not want a significant strengthening of Turkey on its border.
Those who make friends with mattresses always and unequivocally receive war and devastation on their territory, which history has repeatedly confirmed, but for some reason the Armenians are not friends with history.

[Vladimir 290]

they are mostly citizens of Russia, whom to return?

[Amateur]

Russia has long needed to withdraw its troops from the territory of Armenia.
And let the Armenians conduct "exercises" with the troops of Azerbaijan and Turkey. Those will quickly teach them where the Armenians have friends and where the enemies are.
ps Russia does not have a common border with Armenia. And there are practically no Russians left in Armenia. As well as the Armenians themselves, who moved to the Russian Federation in large numbers.

[fruc]

Amateur .... Russia does not have a common border with Armenia. And there are practically no Russians left in Armenia.

There are two military bases and border troops. After these statements, how long will they stay there?

[Mazunga]

what a grief))) in the market there are straight empty shops, everyone left for Artsakh to fight)))

[Luminman]

Armenia is the most useless member of the CSTO and an equally useless ally. We should be glad that such "allies" are leaving us ...

[Introvert]

Bring out the peacekeepers and wish them good luck in free swimming among the local sharks. And send home all legal (who appeared in crime) and illegal immigrants as humanitarian aid.

[APASUS]

I think the Turks will not wait long and will remind themselves of themselves in the next 10 years.

[Alexander Salenko]

This Trotsky, this political one, God forgive me. Ilyich knew about such Pashinyans, you can treat him differently, but you can’t refuse the sequence, and this is a natural weather vane. If it were not for the base in Gyumri, Armenia would be thrown to the figs to be devoured, a state that, in principle, is not capable of existing without Russia, but is dressed up like Kazakhstan.

[Ivan Ivanov]

Oh, another miracle partner has been identified, what will remain of that Armenia in games with the West? The "indestructible brotherhood" of the CSTO now resembles sarcasm, although in fairness we did not provide them with full protection.

[Grandfather Mozai]

A lot has been written about the CSTO here, in fact we see only one ally - Belarus, everything else is "plywood allies", when they need help, a cry in the chicken coop, when they are asked for something - if you please, we will not help to circumvent sanctions, and in general, militarily, just zero exhaust. Why all these exercises on the territory of Armenia? To hold another biathlon? Window dressing with a review of ironed soldiers? There, there is a SVO, send your fighters there, crews of tanks without identification. NWO is a time of change, it's time to finish with parades and biathlon. imha. I apologize for being emotional.

[Sergey39]

How, the co-worker Pashinyan came to power, Armenia rolled downhill!
Azerbaijan is great!
He correctly took advantage of the current situation and returned the lands lost after the first Karabakh war by military means!
And, Armenia has not stopped its slide! (((

[Volzhanin64]

Armenians deserve what they have.
Somehow I did not see the flow of their compatriots from Russia, who rushed to defend Karabakh. Why, there is Russian Ivan, who will come and solve Armenian problems for the Armenians with his blood.

[saigon]

But I think they will no longer see Russians in the ranks of fighters in Artsakh.
Thank you too loudly and clearly.

[Fisher]

Yes, Pashinyan does not care about Armenia. He wants to be shaking hands, that's where it all comes from. Who more specifically to him and his entourage will offer that and slippers.

[polk26l]

Who rules Armenia and the Armenians can be judged by the number of American intelligence officers and advisers in the US Embassy, ​​numbering 3000 people! As they were Judas, so they remained!

[Incvizitor]

On the one hand, I want to remove the base, the peacekeepers and tell the Turks: take them out to zero, but then the Turks will intensify and they are also enemies.

[Pantsuy]

Quote: Incvizitor

take them out to zero, but then the Turks will intensify and they are also enemies.

But first they still have to fight a little and put some of their soldiers and equipment. So let's get started.

[dirty trick]

Quote: Incvizitor

but then the Turks will intensify and they are also enemies.

now rather unpleasant neighbors ... the enemy for Russia was the Ottoman Empire ..
and by the way .. all of a sudden, I agree with Pashinyan - there is no need for exercises, and in general it is time to remove our guys from there.

[senima56]

Mr. Pashinyan would like the entire CSTO to fight Azerbaijan for its interests! And if the CSTO does not agree, it defiantly begins to "flirt" with the West! They say, how will I go to the West, what will you do without me?!

[withoutreverse]

Russia is simply obliged to "wash its hands" and see how they get along.

[fiv]

Our managers in the government and other state institutions cannot do anything about such phenomena because they themselves are the product of Western education in the field of political science, management and other ringing rubbish. They study at management academies, where they are trained by Western-patented fraudsters. But Comrade Sudoplatov and many of his other remarkable contemporaries were brought up by Marxist-Leninist theory and workers' universities. And they would solve this problem. They, real internationalists, also solved more complex problems, approaching them from the point of view of dialectical and historical materialism and relying on the foundation of scientific communism. The world lives by simple laws. According to these laws, a Poshenyan is an enemy. But there are also true friends. It is necessary to help real friends and punish enemies.

[Volzhanin64]

Well, let it unfold. Armenians deserve their government.
Only after they are bent over and they howl, then introduce a ban on moving to the Russian Federation living in Armenia, both citizens of the Russian Federation and non-citizens, including relatives of Armenians already living in Russia.
Unfortunately, this will not work, either because of our eternal "humanism" towards the offended and deprived, or the thirst for profit of officials who will have another opportunity to enrich themselves by "helping" Russian Armenians take their relatives to their place. Let them be accepted by the United States and France, where there are already quite a few of them.

[aleksr2005]

When the Armenians send our military base to the exit, as Georgia once did? And then NATO will go there, as it was in Georgia.

[Vladimir 290]

Then there will be Erivan Khanate again

[saigon]

Well, if the Persians come in, then the khanate will be.
Although the Persians cut and the Ottomans cut.
I wonder what Major General of the Army of the Republic of Ingushetia Khan Nakhichevan would say to all this?

[Arkady007]

Pashinyan has already played.
You need to stop messing around with him. Otherwise, we will get a second Ukraine.
Stop helping.
To begin with, to close flights to Yerevan, it will be very painful for them.

[ax1stoyn]

Let Armenia play further with the West, it will be like with the same Afghanistan, they will bomb and cry then

[storm]

Armenia's turn to the West is becoming more and more obvious. More recently, Nikol Pashinyan criticized Russian peacekeepers for their alleged inaction in the Lachin corridor. Now Yerevan refuses to conduct the CSTO exercises "Indestructible Brotherhood-2023" on its territory.

Minus one more "suitcase without a handle" or "a woman with a cart, it's easier for a mare."
Let the 102nd base, along with new weapons for which Armenia did not pay (Iskander and Su-30SM), let it return home to defend the new regions of Russia, and let supposedly "independent" Armenia solve its own problems, both military and economic ...

[grandloup74]

Il convient donc de laisser l'Armenie aux prises avec la Turquie et l'Azerbaïdjan, puisqu'elle les préfère. Ensuite, le moment venu et si besoin, la Russie n'aura plus de scrupule a mettre l'ensemble au pas...

[Zheleznyak]

Armenians, dear .. really you will not find anyone. to remove this ka from the political arena ...
