 Re: Regional geopolitics
 
 It's the Kazakhs who protest and Russians who facilitate it.Originally posted by Haykakan View PostThe last sentence I agree with but that article clearly states that this change of venue is due to the kazakhs yet you still blame Russia. I guess you been spending time with Vrej1915?

 Dutch Party for Freedom Say EU Must Heed Country's Rejection of Ukraine
 MOSCOW (Sputnik) — The EU officials are terrified of the end of the bloc looming after the Dutch citizens voted in a referendum on Wednesday against both the EU-Ukraine association and the Brussels policymaking in general, a UK Independence Party (UKIP) member of the European Parliament told Sputnik Thursday.
 
 On Wednesday, 61.1 percent of Dutch voters rejected the EU-Ukraine association deal’s ratification in an advisory referendum, according to preliminary results. A turnout of 32.2 percent passed the 30-percent threshold to give the public vote legal weight.
 
 “They [Brussels] are absolutely terrified. The people over there are already talking of it as being the beginning of the end of the European Union,” Raymond Finch said.

 The Dutch Had Their Say: Media Reaction to EU Treaty Referendum
 He added that this momentum will be supported by the referendum on the EU membership in the United Kingdom, "and we will see more and more things like what happened in the Netherlands yesterday."
 
 “When we have our vote on the 23rd of June, and I think we will vote to get out, more and more people across Europe will say we want out as well. And it will also lead to separatism movements, people like the Basques, the Catalans, they will say that it is a prospect for having their own nation states again. This is what it is all about – democracy and self-determination, and the EU hates it, but they see that this movement is unstoppable," Finch pointed out.
 
 The Netherlands is the only member state yet to ratify the agreement, which requires Kiev to implement vast reforms to meet the EU high economic, political and technical standards in exchange for market access.

 Re: Regional geopolitics
 
 Nothing would make the Russians happier than to see the EU break up. They're like a jealous child watching the world develop outside of their influence. After Russia's silence Armenia should start looking for support from other countries and slowly use Russia as a backup.Originally posted by Haykakan View PostBrussels Fears the End of EU as Dutch Vote Against European Policymaking

 The usual policy of speaking out of both sides of their mouth.
 
 "Israel Must Not Sell Arms to the Azeris
 The sale of weapons to a government committing genocide is like the sale of weapons to Nazi Germany during World War II."

 "Turkey will ditch migrant deal if EU breaks promises: Erdogan
 Istanbul (AFP) - Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Thursday warned the European Union that Ankara would not implement a key deal on reducing the flow of migrants if Brussels fails to fulfil its side of the bargain.
 Erdogan's typically combative comments indicated that Ankara would not sit still if the EU falls short on a number of promises in the deal, including visa-free travel to Europe for Turks by this summer."
