Forum Rules (Everyone Must Read!!!)

1] What you CAN NOT post.

You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this forum to post any material which is:
- abusive
- vulgar
- hateful
- harassing
- personal attacks
- obscene

You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)
- post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or cited properly.
- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc
- post racist or other intentionally insensitive material that insults or attacks another culture (including Turks)

The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!


2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.

This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.

3] Keep the focus.

Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.

4] Behave as you would in a public location.

This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.

5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.

Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.

6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.

Advertisements are not allowed in this venue. No blatant advertising or solicitations of or for business is prohibited.
This includes, but not limited to, personal resumes and links to products or
services with which the poster is affiliated, whether or not a fee is charged
for the product or service. Spamming, in which a user posts the same message repeatedly, is also prohibited.

7] We retain the right to remove any posts and/or Members for any reason, without prior notice.


- PLEASE READ -

Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.


8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)

If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

            This is so good to see. Thank you for posting this. Our military capabilities and professionalism have increased by leaps and bounds. I think we need a guy like this to lead our nation at least on the domestic front. I think Mr Ohanyan is a very capable person and we are lucky to have him leading our defence.

              Is Russia Cutting Off Arms Sales To Azerbaijan?

              April 26, 2013 - 5:14am,
              by Joshua Kucera The Bug Pit

              For some time now, there have been unofficial reports that Russia has cut off arms sales to Azerbaijan, in particular of military aircraft that Baku has been seeking. There has been no comment from Moscow, either formally or via anonymous sources, and it's not clear why Russia would have made this move. Possible motives include Azerbaijan's hard bargaining over the Gabala radar station or a more general desire to punish Baku for refusing to take part in its various post-Soviet integration schemes. But a new report in Azerbaijan's APA news service simultaneously provides some compelling evidence that the reports are true and proposes the most unlikely motive: the machinations of the Armenian lobby in Russia. From APA:

              Persons of Armenian descent, who lead the Russian aviation industry, have impeded the negotiations between Azerbaijan and Russia on the purchase of combat aircrafts, military sources told APA.

              According to the information obtained by the Azerbaijani side, as a result of the efforts made by the persons of Armenian descent in the leadership of Russia’s United Aircraft Corporation, as well as MIG and Sukhoi companies, the negotiations with Russia on the purchase of combat aircrafts Su-27, Su-30 and MiG-31 have not produced results. Except for YaK-130 advanced training aircraft, Russia refused to sell warplanes to Azerbaijan.

              Indeed, among UAC's top management, according to its website, there is one recognizably Armenian name -- Mikhail A. Pogosyan, president and chairman of UAC's executive board. But it's fair to say that if Mr Pogosyan were carrying out Armenia's strategic interests rather than those of Russia, he wouldn't have that job for long. While Russia is a strategic partner of Azerbaijan's foe Armenia, it has nevertheless conducted a robust arms trade with Baku, in recent years including sales of combat helicopters, air defense, and armored vehicles.

              So what to make of this move, if Russia is in fact cutting Azerbaijan off? BBC Monitoring recently rounded up some of Baku's expert opinion on this. The chairman of the Azerbaijani National Strategic Research Center Natiq Miri told the opposition newspaper Yeni Musavat:

              "When Putin returned to office, Russia pursued a new policy that includes offering a customs union and a Eurasian Union model. Today Putin puts his efforts towards implementing this model. Because if this plan is implemented, all post-Soviet republics will have to indirectly subject their independence to Moscow. Since Azerbaijan does not agree, Russia is creating problems for our country. One of these problems is Russia's restriction on selling advanced weapons to Azerbaijan."

              The consensus is that Azerbaijan has other options, including other purveyors of Russian-designed equipment, like Ukraine or Belarus, to other sources like Israel, China, Pakistan, and Turkey. The opinion seems split on the role of NATO and the West; one source quoted says that Russia wouldn't have made the move without coordination from Washington, another says that NATO countries could fill in the gap created by Russia's embargo. But both those seem unlikely. In the case of the US and some European countries, there actually are Armenian lobbies that block weapons sales to Azerbaijan.

              Anyway, if it is in fact true that Russia is cutting Azerbaijan off, it would be a pretty significant move. Could there be some truth to the dark warnings of increasing anti-Azerbaijani government activity from Moscow?

                This report also references the report in question. Even if it is true that Russia has cut them off -they still have plenty of options like Isreal etc.. I do not think Russia cares too much about the Azeri money since Russia has plenty of cash but it does care about making it dependent. If it is true that Russia is playing carrot and stick with azeris then i wonder what the carrot and the stick are in this game?
