Azers deploy Su-25 in Nakhichevan.
-
Why would the Azeri deploy SU-25s in Nakhichevan, to attack or defend.
Nachichvan is 170 km in length. If attacked in both direction the optimum airfield location would be 80 km from the north and south, mid point ignoring other variables.
Hardly worth the effort since if our forces register some advance the airfields would be in artillery range, ignoring exotic missiles.
So only use might be if used to attack and support their advance into Armenia proper.
One has to ask does it make sense to attack Armenia proper with the Russian base couple of hundred km to the north equipped with S-400s.
It only makes sense if Russia has given assurances about their neutrality in such an event as part of a larger package deal with the Azeri and the Turks.
PS. Remember how they have joined with the west in putting sanctions on North Korea.

ԵԱՀԿ Մինսկի խմբի ամերիկյան համանախագահը հրապարակել է ղարաբաղյան հակամարտության կարգավորման հիմնական կետերը
ԵԱՀԿ Մինսկի խմբի ամերիկյան համանախագահ Ռիչարդ Հոգլանդը հրապարակել է Լեռնային Ղարաբաղի հակամարտության կարգավորման հիմնական կետերը։ Այդ մասին «հրատապ» նշումով հայտնում է «Ամերիկայի ձայնը»։
«Հաշվի առնելով Լեռնային Ղարաբաղի բարդ պատմությունը, կողմերը պետք է սահմանեն դրա վերջնական իրավական կարգավիճակը ապագայում՝ փոխադարձ համաձայնությամբ եւ իրավական պարտավորեցնող կամարտահայտմամբ:
Նախկին Լեռնային Ղարաբաղի ինքնավար մարզի սահմանների մեջ գտնվող տարածքին, որը Բաքվի կողմից չի վերահսկվում, պետք է ժամանակավոր կարգավիճակ տրվի, որն առնվազն ապահովում է անվտանգության եւ ինքնավարության երաշխիքներ։
Լեռնային Ղարաբաղի շուրջ տարածքները (համանախագահն օգտագործել է «գրավված» բառը-խմբ.) պետք է հանձնվի Ադրբեջանի վերահսկողությանը։ Այնտեղ չի կարող լինել որեւէ բնակեցում՝ առանց հաշվի առնելու Ադրբեջանի ինքնիշխանությունը։ Այդ տարածքների նկատմամբ Ադրբեջանի ինքնիշխանությունը պետք է վերականգնվի:
Պետք է լինի միջանցք, որը կմիացնի Հայաստանը Լեռնային Ղարաբաղի հետ: Այն պետք է լինի բավականաչափ լայն՝ անվտանգ փոխադրումների ապահովման համար։ Սակայն այն չի կարող ներառել Լաչինի ամբողջ շրջանը:
Հարատեւ կարգավորումը պետք է ճանաչի բոլոր տեղահանված անձանց եւ փախստականների իրավունքը՝ վերադառնալ բնակության նախկին վայր:
Կարգավորումը պետք է իր մեջ ներառի անվտանգության միջազգային երաշխիքներ, որոնք կներառեն խաղաղարար միջոցառումներ: Գոյություն չունի սցենար, որում խաղաղությունը կարող է ապահովված լինել առանց լավ նախապատրաստված խաղաղ գործողությունների, որոնք վայելում են բոլոր կողմերի վստահությունը»,- նշել է համանախագահը:

Yerevan Said To Seek More Iranian Gas Imports
The Armenian government wants to more than double imports of natural gas from neighboring Iran, according a senior executive of the National Iranian Gas Company (NIGC).
Armenia has imported up to 500 million cubic meters of Iranian gas annually through a pipeline built in 2008. It has paid for those deliveries with electricity generated at a thermal power plant in Yerevan.
The swap arrangement is due to be expanded significantly following the construction of a third power transmission line connecting the two countries. It is due to be completed in 2019.
The NIGC director for foreign relations, Behzad Babazadeh, said last week that Yerevan wants to increase the daily volume of current Iranian gas deliveries from less than 1 million cubic meters to 2 or even 2.5 million cubic meters even before the new high-voltage line comes on stream. “NIGC is considering this request,” he told the Shana news agency.
Babazadeh made clear that the Iranian side would like to be paid for the additional gas in cash. He also indicated that extra supplies would cost Yerevan more than the current price of Russian gas for Armenia set at $150 per thousand cubic meters. “Of course, Armenia favors the price of Russia's gas sales, which is low, and we do not accept it,” he said.
Armenia imports around 2 billion cubic meters of Russian gas each year. Russia’s Gazprom gas monopoly owns the South Caucasus state’s gas distribution network.
The Armenian Ministry for Energy Infrastructures and Natural Resources declined to comment on the Iranian official’s claims on Monday.
Visiting Yerevan last December, Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani said he and his Armenian counterpart Serzh Sarkisian agreed to increase Iranian gas supplies to Armenia. But he did not elaborate.
Rouhani and Sarkisian held fresh talks in Tehran after the Iranian leader was sworn in for a second term earlier this month. Armenian-Iranian cooperation on energy was reportedly on the agenda of the talks.
