Do we have any Georgians? I'm ending up in the land of the Golden fleece for a bit. I only speak English and Russian, so it's going to be interesting to see how their ESL is there as I don't wanna get stabbed to death and don't know how well I can pick up the martian dialect of sumerian.

huh I do wonder what the position of that war is in the Ukrainian nationalist historical memory. As with all, it seems to alternate between a vague pan-slavic thing and an anti-Russian. Sorta like how polish nationalist and russian panslavists both celebrate Grunwald.

Mr. Apollo posted:”old gods” is an expression used to refer to pre-Christian gods so I assumed that “old believers” were their followers. There are Russian pagans but like all neo-pagan movements they are heavily inspired by uhhhh perhaps what we could charitably call nietzschean attitudes toward Christianity. Some very isolated indigenous communities that have preserved or resurrected pagan practices for cultural reasons

Clashes resumed in Armenia today. Prime Minister Pashinyan announced that 105 soldiers have been killed and Azerbaijan has seized areas of internationally recognized Armenia (i.e. not NK) https://twitter.com/ELINTNews/status/1570035233537286144?s=20&t=dG54xGw7GhJrcd_CNJYIcw Russian media is reporting that they've invoked or inquired about invoking Article 4 of the CSTO which would call Russia to intervene militarily.

She doesn't seem to have more detail but also said that Azeris are attacking Armenia proper. I dunno if we have any leverage over Azerbaijan to get them to chill. I hope she stays safe. Azerbaijan is going to use the collapse of Russia's forces and the EUs dependence on Azerbaijani oil to take as much as they can.

mobby_6kl posted:That's what she said too I offered support but not sure there's anything we collectively or I personally could do as there's probably no way of getting out at the moment. I think the official claim is about Armenia failing to open the corridor. But I think they're going to probably try to take all Syunik (the 'tail' part of the country). Either way, it loving sucks that Armenia's existence was essentially dependent on Russia's ability to project power. I'm not confident that Azerbaijan and Turkey won't just try to eat the country whole.

Doctor Malaver posted:Another reason might be that Armenia occupied a part of Azerbaijan, and their puppet state Artsakh has never been recognized by anyone. I know that Azeris' attacks are hitting Armenia proper too but the bottom line is that they are fighting to reclaim their own territory. It's hard to oppose that while supporting Ukraine in reclaiming Donbas. Principles of self determination are dead? I guess? Regardless, Azerbaijan can make the international law argument once it stops lopping the heads off of any Armenian civilian that doesn't flee from its advance in time.

A map of speculative positions as of the ceasefire. Obviously the Azeris did not take very much, but there simply isn't very much Armenia, so not much Salami tactics needed. No populated points captured though.

I think a lot of people just can't comprehend how officially racist the Caucasus are. Now, I'm not saying if Armenia took over Azeri land they would treat civilians with the dignity and respect all humans deserve, but I know that the Azeris won't, and they're far far more likely to take land.

TheDeadlyShoe posted:Well for starters the Azeris have already invaded Armenia proper. Yeah, this is the new claim circulating around on social media. It would probably mean the end of Armenian statehood. The shaded green would be a demilitarized zone patrolled by Azeri "peacekeepers." Of course, you can find equally absurd nationalist maps from the Armenian side, but its just like how Ukrainian claims on the Volga are not as much of a concern as Russian claims on Kharkiv.

a pipe smoking dog posted:Oh yes no doubt. I'm not saying that Azerbaijan is going to invade Iran tomorrow but it just gives the Iranians another border to worry about in case they get into a conflict with another major power. Plus I wonder how Iranian Azeris generally feel about "Greater Azerbaijan" Iran doesn't like Azerbaijan out of fear of prevoking Azeri nationalism in the north east, where stalin tried to expand Azerbaijan in the 1940s. The US considers them as a potential ally against Iran for this reason too.
