Why is Israel trying to push Russia, Turkey and Azerbaijan into the Caucasus

41

The armed conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia is becoming more and more international. In addition to Turkey and Russia, which are behind Baku and Yerevan, Israel began to play an active role in it. What did Tel Aviv need in the Transcaucasus?

On September 18, an Armenian embassy was opened in the capital of the Jewish state. Two weeks later, Yerevan took a serious foreign policy step by recalling its diplomats for consultations. The Armenian Foreign Ministry named as the reason for the supply of Israeli weapons to Azerbaijan, which are now used in Nagorno-Karabakh:



We have repeatedly informed our Israeli colleagues about this and noted that it is especially regrettable at a time when Azerbaijan, with the support of Turkey, is carrying out a large-scale aggression against Artsakh.

Indeed, Baku is actively buying from Tel Aviv the most modern samples of Israeli weapons: HAROP, SkyStriker and Hermes drones, long-range tactical surface-to-surface missiles LORA, Barak-8 and Iron Dome air defense systems, etc. ... Azerbaijani specialized publications write that this is necessary to contain the "terrorist essence" of Armenia, to protect military facilities and civilians. It should be noted that, in addition to Israel, Baku also acquires weapons from Turkey and Russia. Two years ago, President Aliyev announced that the cost of arms contracts with Moscow amounted to an impressive $ 5 billion. So why does Yerevan present its claims to Tel Aviv?

The question is complex enough. On the one hand, Israel and Azerbaijan are sovereign states and have every right to cooperate in the production and purchase of weapons. They are not limited by any sanctions or embargo. Moreover, Tel Aviv and Baku are closely linked in the field of energy: about 40% of the consumed Israeli the economy oil comes from Azerbaijan. In this context, the grievances of the Armenian Foreign Ministry are not entirely justified. On the other hand, in Yerevan they see that the Israelis are conducting their multi-pass political a game where Armenia may end up as one of the main losers.

At firstBy strengthening Baku, Tel Aviv is building opposition to Iran, which is hostile to Israel. The Islamic Republic has a common border with Azerbaijan. There is an opinion that the Americans and Israelis seriously considered the Azerbaijani territory as one of the possible springboards for the war against Tehran.

Secondly, Nagorno-Karabakh is located in close proximity to the Iranian border. Now seasoned terrorists are being transferred from Syria to the battle zone for the war against Armenia. After the end of hostilities, they can stay and create a new center of permanent tension not only for Yerevan, but also for Tehran.

ThirdlyIt is easy to see that Tel Aviv is pouring water on the mill of a potential conflict between Russia, Turkey and Iran. Former Israeli diplomat Avigdor Lieberman bluntly stated:

Azerbaijan is located at the crossroads of three empires - Persian, Ottoman and Russian.

Ankara actively acts as a third force in the conflict between Baku and Yerevan. In theory, by supporting Azerbaijan, Tel Aviv is strengthening its position in the Transcaucasus, Turkey, hostile to Israel. Everything becomes clearer if we look at this as an attempt to confront three former empires at once, in which revanchist sentiments are strong enough. And then the cunning Israelites will fish in this muddy water. It is easy to see that Tel Aviv, with the assistance of the United States, was able to surprisingly quickly establish diplomatic ties with many Arab countries-neighbors in the Middle East, guaranteeing the safety of its rear. The configuration of a possible new major regional war is looming more and more clearly.

    Why is Israel trying to push Russia, Turkey and Azerbaijan into the Caucasus

    The title TRIES TO COLLECT, I would like to know more HOW?
    Nobody argues that Israel has interests in the region, but Israel is trying to use the situation in its own interests, but it certainly does not create this situation. Is Israel inciting one side to the other? Is Israel forcing Turkey to Support and Provoke Azerbaijanis? Is Israel somehow pitting Turkey against Russia? It would be interesting to know how.
    Anyone can write water about water to the mill.
    PS And yes, Israel is not at all opposed to someone giving a hand to the Sultan, and Israel is well aware that today only Russia can do this.

        Does everyone in your country and in the world think that Crimea is Russian? But despite this, Crimea remains Russian and for most Russians this is beyond doubt. And Erdogan can declare the Moon Turkish, but what will change from this? He will go to conquer Jerusalem? I remember how at one time, when the Israeli special forces intercepted the Turkish ship "Navi Marmara", which was trying to break into Gaza, despite warnings that this should not be done, and contracted a dozen Turks who were trying to bull, and the ship was brought to Ashdod - Erdogan beat himself with his heel. his chest and his mother swore that he would personally arrive in Gaza on a cruiser. Only somehow he didn’t succeed, it seems he had little time ... So this is, as they say, “Shocked Emelya, your week” ... Besides, in fact despite all his barking towards Israel, in fact - diplomatic relations were and are, trade is flourishing, as well as tourism. Well, let him bark ...

          Natan bruk, you see, you are sure that the clever Jews decided to declare Jerusalem the capital of Israel on their own.

          Israel is tiny and has little history. You yourself will figure out who brought you to this territory, how the population appeared, why the armed forces were actually created earlier than the state itself. I was already joking about American aid, calling it a salary.

          And I do not argue with the fact that the country itself appoints the capital for itself.

            To expand your horizons - Jerusalem was the capital of Israel already 3000 years ago. And modern Israel declared it its capital back in 1949. Who brought us here these thousand years ago, I also know. I also know that the Jewish presence here has never stopped all these years , there were more, there were less, but the Jews have always been here. Yes, I can also tell you that until the early 70s of the twentieth century, the United States helped Israel a little less than nothing, and let's say, the defeat of the Arab armies in 1967 took place without any help Moreover, they complied with the embargo on arms supplies to Israel and even spied for the Arabs (that's why the American reconnaissance ship was sunk). Then the Americans understood which horse to bet on. So a lot is not at all what you think.

              Your people, yes, it has a long, rich history.

              A young city called Tel Aviv, then still one of the suburbs of Jaffa. It was here that a new state was proclaimed - Israel. The ancient capital of Israel is Tel Aviv, which was approved here.

                Actually, it’s you who are fooling people. What you posted here is sheer nonsense. Tel Aviv could not be the "ancient capital", because in antiquity it simply did not exist, in its place was Jaffa and the capital of Israel, it never was, it was a large port where pilgrims arrived on their way to Jerusalem, which was the capital of Israel. It was and is now, and on this occasion in Israel there is almost complete consensus, about the same as in Russia about the Crimea, and there is nothing to understand here - every Israeli knows perfectly well where the capital of his country is. So it would not be worthwhile talk about things that you have no idea about.

And all would be fine, but in 1948, after thousands of years, a group of people calling themselves the citizens of Israel, takes responsibility and starts long-lost wars.

                  Why did you decide that you are the legal successor? And if the legal successors, does this mean that it is necessary to restore the old borders and start wars when you have lost?

                  By the way, Erdogan has already voiced assholes your opinion about historical justice.

Yes, and also about your ignorance about the "group of people" - already wrote that the Jewish presence on the territory of Israel was never interrupted, and the restoration of Israel began long before 1948 by the first Zionists. In 1948 Israel took shape officially after in fact it already existed and functioned. And the wars that led to The restoration of Israel turned out to be very won, today's Israel is a clear proof. And Erdogan's opinion about historical justice is of little interest to us. As he wrote above, he can declare the entire solar system Turkish, but what is the price of these statements?

    I re-read the text twice, however, despite two higher educations and a rather high IQ, I could not understand what exactly Israel's desire to push Russia, Turkey and Azerbaijan into is expressed in the current aggravation of the long-standing conflict. It is curious that, according to the author of the article, Russia, which sells weapons to both sides, is not trying to confront anyone in the Transcaucasus.
    The author, of course, is free to have his own view of the situation, but either he could not substantiate this view convincingly enough, or, which seems to me more likely, his conclusions are not based on logic - pure emotions.
    I do not undertake to predict the development of events around Nagorno-Karabakh - I do not have enough information, I am inclined to think that the current aggravation of the conflict will soon be stopped by the joint efforts of the United States, Russia and France. Azerbaijanis will not be allowed to seize the entire territory of the unrecognized republic. However, I know for sure that due to the numerous facts of the effective use by the Azerbaijani side of the Israeli Harop and OTRK LORA drones, the number of states wishing to purchase these products from the Israeli military-industrial complex will increase dramatically.

    No answers to my questions?
    Then the third question - who benefits from pushing Russia and Turkey in the South Caucasus? Who day and night publishes fake news about the participation of a third party and immediately asks Russia to become this very third or fourth party?
    And here the most "advanced" users and authors are eager to pay with Russian blood for the dream of Great Armenia. Or with the same Russian blood to fulfill the desire of the States to create a Kurdish state.
    Armenia is a destabilizing state in the South Caucasus. Not Israel or Turkey, but Armenia. And Armenia also wants to "warm hands" or "fish in troubled waters". To confront Russia and Turkey in the war is the blue dream of the United States. Then the whole configuration in the Middle East will change. Assad's support will drastically weaken.
    NATO for Turkey will not fit. But he will not let him destroy either. But the Bosphorus will be closed for many years and NATO ships will be registered in the Black Sea forever.
    But Armenia will get access to the sea and completely annex Karabakh.
    This is what the Armenians and the most "advanced" authors are fighting for

      This is what the Armenians and the most "advanced" authors are fighting for

      That is, you categorically assert that today's conflict is dictated by the interests of Armenians?
      But then it logically does not fit well with your president's statement:

      At the meeting of the country's Security Council, Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev called the settlement of the conflict in Karabakh "a historical task of Azerbaijan," saying that Baku would not agree to a "half-hearted solution."
      "I have said many times, and I want to say today that we must resolve this issue so that the people of Azerbaijan are satisfied with this. We must restore historical justice. We must do this to restore the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan," Aliyev said.

      https://www.google.de/amp/s/www.bbc.com/russian/news-54314665.amp

      Pay attention to the keywords:

      ... We must restore historical justice. We must do this to restore the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan ...

      After these words, I have a feeling that it is Azerbaijan that is more drawn to the role of initiator of the conflict.
      As lawyers say: there is a motive.

    First of all, I would like to note the centuries-old prehistory of the conflict between Armenians and Azerbaijanis over Nagorno-Karabakh. And Israel, recreated in 1948, simply could not have anything to do with this problem. It has not even now. The author correctly noted that mutually beneficial economic relations between Baku and Jerusalem are the legal right of sovereign states. There are no documented actions of Israel about an attempt to push Turkey, Iran and Russia against each other. Which, by the way, also supply weapons to the warring parties. And not even documented arguments are also not given. An unambiguous statement is made immediately about the cunning Israelites, who are for all bad against all good. It seems to me that the point is different. And according to the Goble formula and on the Kazan platform, compromises for the settlement of the conflict were indicated. And Azerbaijan expressed its readiness to make these compromises. They were based on the fact that seven regions not included in Nagorno-Karabakh should be returned to Baku. Plus the exchange of territories between warring countries. Armenia torpedoed these advances. And Nikol Vovaevich also made additional territorial claims to the Shahumyan region of Azerbaijan. Today Baku is trying to solve the problem by military means. As for me, it is unlikely that Karabakh will be de-occupied. But Azerbaijan will most likely return seven regions. And Pashinyan will go into political oblivion. Moscow is holding an appropriate political pause, showing Armenia what will happen to it if Yerevan's anti-Russian policy continues. Ankara is swaggering as usual lately. But not to such an extent as to go to a military confrontation with Tehran and even more so with Moscow. Iran supports Armenia, though very quietly. And I'm not ready for a war with Turkey. And she's not on the agenda. But Israel has something to do with it? Yes, of course, I can assume that if Turkey and Iran clash, then Israel will clearly not be upset and wish success to all parties. But it is incorrect to assert categorically that Jerusalem is making attempts, and even active ones, to provoke an armed confrontation in this direction.

    Is Israel somehow pitting Turkey against Russia? It would be interesting to know how.

    Your claims that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel ... Does everyone in your country and the world think so? And recently, Erdogan declared Jerusalem a Turkish city.

    PS. Somehow it can affect everyone.

    The status of the capital is determined by laws (on December 5, 1949, Israel declared Jerusalem its capital; the Knesset (Israeli parliament) and almost all state and government institutions of Israel have been located in Jerusalem since 1949) from 1949 and 1980. In our country, the question of the capital is not at all raised. In principle, you can consider anything (that the earth is flat, for example), in fact Jerusalem is the capital of Israel. There is a collision in the world - some countries believe that the city should be the capital of Palestine and Israel (including the Russian Federation) and before that does not recognize Israel's right to consider Jerusalem as the capital, which does not make T-Aviv the capital. There are countries that recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, there are countries that do not recognize Israel itself. All three branches of government are located in Jerusalem and to say that T-Aviv decided or undertook is ridiculous. All the more ridiculous is the wording - the official T-Aviv.
    From the 15th century until 1918, Jerusalem was under Turkish rule and Erdogan believes that this gives him the right to speak about a Turkish city.

    Didn't notice the contradiction? The new city is the ancient capital. The capital of Israel has ALWAYS been Jerusalem. You just need to know the meaning of the city for the Jews. For two thousand years the Jews repeated the formula - next year in Jerusalem

    “If I forget you, Jerusalem, let my right hand dry up. May my tongue stick to my sky, if I do not remember you, if I do not exalt Jerusalem to the height of my joy ... "

    Psalm 137

    And after that T-Aviv suddenly becomes the capital? I laugh.
