Armenian parliament ratifies agreement on a unified air defense system with the Russian Federation

There are reports from Armenia that the local parliament (National Assembly) by a majority vote ratified the agreement on the creation of a unified air defense system. Recall that earlier such an agreement was concluded between Moscow and Yerevan. RIA News reports that 102 member of the Armenian parliament spoke for ratification, while 8 was against it.

Deputy Minister of Defense of Armenia Ara Nazaryan noted that the command of the Russian Federation Space Forces will coordinate the work of the general air defense system.
From the statement of Nazaryan:

As for the direct control of a combat unit, it is carried out by the head of the air defense forces of Armenia. In peacetime, the parties can make decisions about the use of troops under their control. Parties must notify each other about these decisions and actions. Armenia will have the right to use its air defense to the extent and for those purposes it deems necessary.

After the ratification of this agreement, we will continue to use our anti-aircraft means, but Russian resources will also be added to them. It is a question of both flying objects, fighters, and means of destruction. Such a right provides a higher level of efficiency than the one that was before.

Armenian journalists asked the country's deputy defense minister whether the agreement with the Russian Federation does not provide for any restrictions on the use of Armenian air defense systems directly. Ara Nazaryan stated that there are no such restrictions.

I wonder what kind of air defense system will appear in Armenia? It is unlikely that the old S-300PS with a range of 75 kilometers (Russia donated several divisions to Kazakhstan and Belarus), given that there is a conflict with Azerbaijan.

[Khariton]

It happens ....)))) Then what?

No question...

[SRC P-15]

Armenia will be entitled to use its air defense to the extent and for those purposes that it considers necessary.

How shoud I understand this? We mean, we will hope that this sector will be protected by the Armenian air defense, and they will consider that this is not necessary? Do we have to duplicate their air defense? And then what for priest button accordion?

I am also perplexed about this agreement. Our officials may not disclose all the details of the agreement, because anti-Russian sentiments sharply intensified in Armenia after the April battles with Azerbaijan.

Russia extends your hand to you and you don’t understand. Russia is not profitable to destabilize the situation at its borders in the Transcaucasian direction. But you are inclined to overestimate your importance for Russia. Leave you alone will be a mess and a lot of blood.

Is 200 kilometers like S-300PMU-2 and S-300VM?
And the S-300PS 75 kilometers, it was these systems that Russia delivered to Kazakhstan and Belarus from among those removed from combat duty for free in connection with the rearmament to new complexes.

And here and so everything lies on the surface. As you say: "... what does it give to Russia and Armenia?" - gives nothing, except for one thing - documentary registration of rights and obligations. De facto, the air defense of Russia already provides cover for Armenia. Do you also need to pay extra?

"As for the direct control of the combat echelon, it is carried out by the chief of the Armenian Air Defense Forces. In peacetime, the sides can make decisions on the use of the troops under their command."

Here is the answer to your question, in peacetime you use your equipment as you like, if suddenly something, then apparently there will be centralized management.

[sub307]

It would be interesting to get acquainted with the agreement in more detail .... Judging by the comments the "people" have questions, not everything is clear - why is it needed, and what is the degree of independence of the parties?

[Temples]

So what's the problem?

First, a march to a military school, then service, then to the academy, then to headquarters and voila! - documents in front of you!

Hopefully, the S-400 will be delivered with the appropriate range. So that Erdogan does not "itch" in the causal place.

[vladimirvn]

The main thing is that in Russia the anti-Armenian ones do not intensify. And according to air defense forces, as I understand it. In peacetime, each side uses them as it sees fit.

Do you want to give an example that you are a provocateur? Your post with my comments in parentheses) ,, I will be incredibly glad if the relationship of Russians with Turks improves, (Armenian whose people committed genocide by the Turks?) and then at VO, the analyst Khramchikhin already calculated the forces and capabilities of the Armenian Armed Forces in the light of a possible war between Russia and Turkey. I personally did not like the prospect of a war with Turkey (after comparing the forces of Armenia and Turkey?) among many Russians there is a preconceived notion that all Armenians want a war with Turkey(the first time I hear this, Armenia has a conflict with Azerbaijan over Karabakh). Personally, I don’t want it and the prospect of turning my country into a battlefield doesn’t please me at all. Develop relations with a neighbor (what kind of relationship do you have with Azerbaijan ?) it is necessary and necessary, but do not rush from one extreme to the other, Russia (Oh how!) and its media represent the Turks as demons (well, from the 15th to the 20th centuries there were 12 warriors between Russia and Turkey. The Turks are saints) and demand so that its allies would also support Russia in its struggle with Turkey, (I repeat about the love of the Armenian people for the Turks, the Turkish defender is direct), then in one day they completely change the vector of their policy. Such shyness from extreme to extreme of Russia does not bring any special dissidents. ( It can be seen that there is a view of the dividend-benefit)
After Turkey shot down a Russian plane, the Armenian general, who at that time was the chairman of the CSTO on a rotating basis, protested and condemned the actions of the Turkish Air Force on behalf of the entire organization. Thus, the authorities of Kazakhstan, Belarus and Kyrgyzstan disowned this statement, saying that no one had authorized Yerevan to make statements on their behalf. Simply put, Russia's "allies": Belarus, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan refused to support her in times of trouble, Armenia and Tajikistan supported her. (Or maybe Armenia pursued its own goals with these statements? Substituting the CSTO and Russia?) Now in a stupid position, excuse me, my country, Armenia, remains, because after supporting the Russian position, it found itself in even worse relations with Turkey than it was before the conflict with the downing of a Russian plane. It turns out that Armenia has worsened its already bad interstate relations and all for what? That Putin would overnight reconsider his policy towards Turkey and go to the world, and the ally was left a fool? It turns out that Kazakhstan and Belarus did the right thing that they did not support Russia in its difficult hour, otherwise they remained in an idiotic position, like Armenia (Time has shown that Russia has political will and strength). Such leaps will not add Russia allies in the future, all sober-minded politicians were given a clear lesson in the form of a foolish Armenia.
PS And after the events with the downed Su-24, the events in Karabakh this year, where Russia played the role of a mediator in this conflict. You are doing a stupid thing that they say why Armenia needs this treaty about air defense?

Yes, everyone understands that an Azerbaijani plane will not fly into the territory of Armenia itself.
It's just that in Armenia the majority are unhappy with this air defense treaty.
The troops of Armenia are located in Karabakh and the air defense of Armenia, both from the territory of Armenia and by moving their positions in Karabakh they control the sky over Karabakh.
And everyone thinks that Russia may not allow these air defense to open fire on the Azerbaijani Air Force, which will begin to circle over Karabakh. The scandal is over this because of this.
And so the outpost label stuck, and then there was the joint air defense control, either joint, or given to Russia. That's all.

Respected? the devil is hiding in little things and now I will explain in detail why. Quote: ,, in Armenia, after the April battles with Azerbaijan, anti-Russian sentiments sharply intensified ,,
What do we have? Armenia, as a member of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO), has the right to receive military support in case of aggression against one of the CSTO members. In this case, the conflict was on the territory of Nagorno-Karabakh (NK), and since the NK is a disputed territory between Armenia and Azerbaijan, it is not a member of the Collective Security Treaty Organization, which in turn does not impose obligations of military intervention in the event of a conflict in the territory of the Nagorno Karabakh (if only peacekeeping operations and by agreement) Based on this, the author of the post claims that anti-Russian sentiments in Armenia have grown. we can conclude that: Russia had the right not to intervene in the conflict and not to occupy one or another conflicting side and apply the VS. It turns out that Azerbaijanis attacked and Russia is guilty? Moreover, if you read his posts more closely, you will see how he (Armenian, judging by his nickname and the flag) glorifies Turkey. Which in turn raises suspicion of such love for the Turks and embitterment towards Russia and you ask yourself the question: is it not a provocateur? Thank you for your attention.

[edos1979]

The devil is in the smallest detail. But the Armenians were bewildered by the sale of arms to Azerbaijan. Has the question really arisen against whom it will be used? This is not an allied relationship.

[Yeraz]

Quote: edos1979

and the amazement of the Armenians was caused by the sale of arms to Azerbaijan. Has the question really arisen against whom it will be used?

Your problem is that you simply do not want to read the laws.
This weapon was used against armed groups in Karabakh, but if the armed forces of Armenia are deployed there, which should not be there, is that really the problem of others ???
After all, these weapons did not shoot at Armenia, at its cities and its troops in Armenia.
And therefore your perplexity causes perplexity of others.
Turkey is also an ally of Azerbaijan, but for example, Turkey and Azerbaijan do not have such an agreement as Russia and Armenia help each other in the event of an attack on one of the parties.
Since Turkey is in NATO and the participation of the Turkish army, this means the involvement of NATO.
But Azerbaijan didn’t drive to Turkey why it didn’t come and why it won’t come. Everyone understands there are treaties and its clauses on alliance. Besides direct military intervention, help will be provided. But because of the absence of the clause on mutual assistance, Azerbaijan and the population don’t say that Turkey is not an ally.
The alliance is supported by contracts and claims may arise in case of violation of these paragraphs.
Armenia and Russia have an agreement, but there is no clause on assistance to the Armenian Armed Forces, which are located on the territory of LEGALLY recognized territories of Azerbaijan.
Therefore, Russia did not violate the agreement, and you accuse it of violating a clause that is not in the agreement between the countries.

[Yeraz]

Quote: Mengad

Thank you for attention.

Hmm, I get your point.
Just understand the Armenians take a different look at this alliance, especially against the backdrop of the Turkish-Azerbaijani alliance and want from the same series. For all Russian politicians to come out and unanimously declare their full support for Armenia, the people rallied in the streets in favor of the Armenians.
Therefore, the growth of anti-Russian sentiments. They look not at the letter of the law, but rather at the spirit of the word. Although the other CSTO allies are more likely to side with Azerbaijan.
But the Armenians do not want to understand this. Karabakh is a problem of Armenia and the allies of Armenia should take the side of Armenia.

Do not forget that the 102nd Russian military base is stationed on the territory of Armenia. That guarantees as a member of the CSTO protection from external aggression. The military budgets of Armenia and Azerbaijan are of course different, but Russia needs money and it cannot fry weapons left and right.

Well, I’ll try to explain to you: Firstly, the military budget does not speak about the strength of the army, it all depends on many factors. I think you will agree that Russia will have $ 67 billion in the military budget much stronger British army with $ 56 billion? And if we have figures from open sources, in 2015, according to various sources, Azerbaijan had from $ 1,37 billion to $ 3 billion, and Armenia $ 412 million. About arms sales: Azerbaijan has led the past few years mass purchases of military equipment in Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Israel, Turkey, South Africa. In addition, it was actually created from scratch its own military-industrial complex. Armenia, the main supplier of weapons is indeed Russia. Russia has given a $ 200 million credit to Armenia for the purchase of Russian weapons. Please note that the data may vary so the information is taken from open sources.

First money and then friendship, let's not forget that in place of Russia in the supply of weapons there are many others who will put it.

It's not so much about money. Understand that.
According to some nomenclature of weapons, Russia has no one to replace. EU and the USA do not sell weapons. Where to get modern tanks ?? Israel and Turkey will not be able to give. The tank either does not fit the geographic conditions or as in the case of Turkey it is not there or there are a lot of components of countries West, which block its supply, as happened with the Turkish self-propelled guns, where the Germans said our engine, we do not sell with our engine. Who can take TOS-1 ??

The point here is the controllability of the conflict. The Russian Federation selling arms to Azerbaijan primarily seeks to control the conflict. Indeed, Azerbaijan completely depends on the components for these weapons and if Russia does not give permission, how many of these systems will work. Who will be repaired ?? Yes, if you can try other specialists to repair or find analogues, But it will be more expensive, it will take a lot of time and not the fact that it will be better.
Therefore, many in Azerbaijan are against the purchase of Russian weapons, but so far no one has. For its defense industry has turned from zero to a significant element, everyone looks at the successes of the Turkish defense industry, Israel eases the situation, but still no one has it.
Armenians already get weapons for a penny, but they don’t understand that Russia is not in a situation where a 70-80 thousandth Armenian army should equip its army at the same pace as Azerbaijan. This is not a small group, it needs a lot of money and time. right now and urgently need a weapon and money is not so smooth.

You have experience. But this will not help.

It’s better for you. there can be only one. return to Azerbaijan of areas not related to Artsakh. return of the peaceful Azerbaijani population and recognition of Karabakh as independent from Azerbaijan.

Dear, you can at least buy all the weapons of the world, but you will not have victory. The Armenians will not live with you in the same state. Are you ready to conduct ethnic cleansing?

Well, you are an Armenian and ask such stupid questions. The level of hatred is at the highest level. Why should Azerbaijan carry out purges ?? THE POPULATION WILL LEAVE OUT !!! As it was with Talysh.
You are not Masazists to leave your families in the war zone. This is not the 90s, the crops are more powerful among the parties. Askeran’s troops will immediately leave the population of Armenians in every point where there will be a threat from the Azerbaijani Armed Forces. In addition, in the full-scale war, the near-post points in Azerbaijan will be evacuated. Therefore, there is no need to clean it.

and there can only be one way out. Returning to Azerbaijan areas not related to Artsakh. Returning the peaceful Azerbaijani population and recognition of Karabakh as independent from Azerbaijan.

But this is for you.
But for me, the cunning Eraz is another way out, the Armenians themselves initiate the surrender of all the districts, but without entering the Armed Forces of Azerbaijan in Nagorno-Karabakh itself, they say the ara demon got it wrong, these are external players to blame, we were friendly. And Azerbaijanis have a short memory is the misfortune of the people in fact, therefore, after some time, even together with the Armenians of Karabakh, people will live and marry Armenians, as was the case in the Soviet Union.
Well, or war. And who will win there will be known after the war.
