With turned off transponders: Russia is actively transferring weapons to Armenia

23

Russia and Turkey are actively supplying the opposing sides in Nagorno-Karabakh with weapons and ammunition. Moreover, Russian planes often fly in the Transcaucasus with their transponders turned off, so that it would be impossible to track them down to a common man in the street.

For example, on October 26, 2020, a heavy military transport aircraft Il-76MD of the Russian Aerospace Forces (RA-78830) was recorded over the Caspian Sea. He flew from Tver to Mineralnye Vody, where he may have loaded or refueled, and then headed across the Caspian and Iranian airspace to Armenia. As a result, the aircraft arrived at the Erebuni airport near Yerevan.




At the same time, Turkey immediately sent its reconnaissance drones towards Russian military facilities located in Armenia. The Turks really wanted to know what the Russians had brought.

Prior to that, three more Russian heavy transport workers visited the Erebuni airport.


We remind that the 1995nd military base of Russia (military unit 102) has been officially operating on the territory of Armenia since 04436, which is deployed in two garrisons - in Gyumri (126 km north of Yerevan) and at the Erebuni airport. The number of personnel in 2018 was about 4 thousand people. They were equipped with MiG-29 fighters, Mi-8MT and Mi-24P helicopters, S-300V air defense systems, various radars and other weapons systems. In 2019, a decision was made to increase the potential of the Russian military base in Armenia by re-equipping with a new and modernized machinery.

      This is how we will "butt", then with Turkey in Syria and Azerbaijan, then with the United States in Ukraine and Syria, and now for Belarus with Poland and Lithuania, and then Moldova and Kazakhstan on the doorstep ..... But it also cannot go on forever, and it will surely explode somewhere, and God forbid that in the States themselves, on election day, all the states are already divided between warring groups that are already marching openly through the cities and towns of the United States with arms in their hands, and dark-skinned people will not let this whole storm be let down on the brakes, they need a reason, and they have it - revenge for three hundred years of slavery, but how would Washington, in order to avoid a civil war, not muddied such a war on our borders, for example, Ukraine, after all, it is not without reason that it is fed by the entire "collective West with the United States at its head, and there NATO will catch up, in connection with Russia's aggression in Ukraine.

        As long as Russia is represented by half-Jews, half-Armenians (S. Lavrov and others), and in the government there are even Jews (prime ministers Medvedev, Mishustin and others), so Russia will only plunge into a swamp, because the interests of the ruling only in personal with dual citizenship, and it is connected with the enemies of Russia ...

          In all official documents, it is always written "in Ukraine", and in colloquial speech we often use "in Ukraine", meaning the OUTSIDE, which it was even under Empress Catherine.

            In the Russian Federation, "v" is not written anywhere and by anyone, except for Ukrainians, foreign and local

              In Russian, if correctly, the prefix "on" is always written to words that have "marginal" or "island" meaning - in Taimyr, in the Far East, in Yamal, on Sakhalin, in Bali, in Hawaii, on Novaya Zemlya, in Cuba, i.e. it is connected only with the outskirts and islands, and in other cases the prefix "in" is always used - in Russia, in Moscow, in St. Petersburg, in Paris. Take such an example - the Apennine Peninsula, we speak - in the Apennines, but the Apennines are Italy, and we do not speak IN Italy, but we speak In Italy, and if it's even simpler, then
              "on the table" is what is outside, "in the table" is what is inside, and so in everything.

      If so. So what? I doubt that this will all end with Karabakh. To be honest, I really do not like the policy of Armenia towards the Russians. But Russia will have to defend the Armenians if we do not want to fight again in the Caucasus.

        Russia has the CSTO with Armenia, and not with Karabakh, since N. Karabakh is under the international jurisdiction of Azerbaijan, but since 1994 it has existed as an enclave within the borders of Azerbaijan, with a predominant population of Armenian nationality. In May 1994 Russia, Armenia, Nagorno-Karabakh and Azerbaijan signed a peace agreement to end the war, where more than 16 thousand people died. Here is a knot with incomprehensibility and tied, which is still untied with blood. And Russia will not fit into Karabakh itself, this is the territory of Azerbaijan, but as a mediator in she is involved in a peaceful settlement.

      On the AP side. For the Russian Federation does not in any way interfere with the AR in the liberation of the territories occupied by the RA. The other day, Putin once again spoke in favor of the return of Azerbaijan's undisputed territories to Azerbaijan. How much clearer?

      The situation with the former NKAO is not so simple. If you understand correctly the four UN resolutions and the “Madrid Principles”, a referendum on its independence should be held in the former NKAO (with the participation of ≈40 expelled Azerbaijanis and their descendants).

      Fortune telling on the "coffee grounds". The only fact is that the planes fly, but they flew to the Erebuni airport before, because practically everything for the Russian base is delivered from Russia.
