ADDITIONAL MILITARY ASSETS IN DAGESTAN: IS THAT HOW RUSSIA HOPES TO
DISSUADE AZERBAIJAN FROM GOING TO WAR OVER RUNAWAY NAGORNO-KARABAKH?;
Three hypotheses explaining a dramatic enlargement of the Russian
military group in Dagestan.

Between 15,000 and 25,000 servicemen of the Defense Ministry and
Internal Troops with heavy fighting vehicles were dispatched from
Chechnya to Dagestan. The authorities call it planned rotation one
day and establishment of the Interior Ministry's Tactical Force in
Dagestan the following.

Eyewitness reports mentioned over 300 vehicles including armored
personnel carriers, Ural ferries, and armored command vehicles on the
way to Dagestan. T-90 tanks and multiple rocket launcher systems were
already moved to Dagestan from Chechnya.

According to official explanations, "some forces of the Provisional
Task Force will be moved from Chechnya to Dagestan and transformed into
the Interior Ministry's Tactical Force." Dagestani Security Council
Secretary Magomed Baachilov, however, called it "planned rotation".

Both explanations are lame, of course. Official explanation is
invalidated by the simple fact that no Tactical Force ever needs
so many heavy armored vehicles and Grad launchers. Baachilov's is
plain rubbish on account of the scope of the so called rotation. The
impression is that a major operation against the extremist underground
is planned in Dagestan. Or else the federal center knows something that
warrants deployment of an equivalent of two divisions... in addition
to the 136th Brigade quartered in Buinaksk, Marines in Kaspiisk,
and countless OMON units.

There is, however, a third hypothesis as well. "As matters stand,
there are between 55,000 and 57,000 servicemen quartered in the
republic... discounting local law enforcement agencies... It is
rumored here that come summer Azerbaijan will make another go at
Nagorno-Karabakh and try to reabsorb the runaway region. All this
military might concentrated in Dagestan is meant as a warning to
Baku, a message that Russia will stand by Armenia," said a source in
Dagestani security structures.

Remarkably, there have been no indications yet that Moscow is annoyed by this increasingly delicate balancing act.

If Belarus would have military exercises with a NATO country, Moscow would surely be annoyed, not that it would happen, since Belarus is openly dictatorized. So does this mean the Armenia/Russia relationship is so solid it doesn't need an outcry every time Armenia does something? it could very well be, and this also refutes the claims that Armenia is not independent politically.

BTW, Azeris don't have a functioning enough army _yet_ for a full scale invasion, so it's all hot air IMO.
