Nagorno-Karabagh: Military Balance Between Armenia & Azerbaijan
Re: Nagorno-Karabagh: Military Balance Between Armenia & Azerbaijan
I usully think the same about your posts bell.
For the first time in more than 600 years, Armenia is free and independent, and we are therefore obligated
to place our national interests ahead of our personal gains or aspirations.
Ahhh ... it's one of those "historic facts", which for that part of the world usually means anything but an historic fact!
And what is this suppose to mean? Are you here denying that in 1934 a land transfer creating a direct link with Nakhichevan took place? If so, than indeed you can put that statement into quotation marks.
Your small-scale map proves nothing because it shows nothing. You need 1:100,000 or better. That is the minimum scale that is needed.
I am sorry but if you cannot clearly see the marked border then perhaps you need some kind of glasses. Do you want me to outline the border in bright red for you? I can also post a comparative map of today's Armenian Republic so you can see how clearly the border joint is well above the present boundaries of Nakhichevan Autonomous Republic.
Here is a poor-quality image of an Ottoman map of Russian territories north of Ararat. Though it is too small to be 100% certain, it seems to show that the border DID NOT run along the Arax. The northernmost part of the white area is the point where the Russian-Persian border meets the Karasu - it looks like it then runs southeast, along the Karasu and NOT along the Arax, so the border between Russia and Persia at that location is the same as the modern border between Turkey and Iran.
Now this is indeed very poor quality map that you cannot differentiate any border demarcations and is nothing compared to the resolution and clear border markings of the map that I posted. Heck you cannot even read geographic destinations much the less see the borders.

Politics is not about the pursuit of morality nor what's right or wrong
Its about self interest at personal and national level often at odds with the above.
Great politicians pursue the National interest and small politicians personal interests
