More important question: Why is RUSSIA supporting the rebels? I've heard reasons such as Russia doesn't care about Libya and views the country as just somewhere where they sell weapons. I think that's a load of crap, I want a better reason. If truly that's what Russia thinks, then its leaders must not be shrewd at all. Largest reserves of oil in Africa, buyer of immense amount of Russian arms. Now, contracts going to the West and NTC leaders have OPENLY stated that they will not buy Russian weapons anymore. *Shakes his head in disappointment*
I wonder if Russia will abandon Syria too now... :-O
I think the deal is the xxxs and americans get the middle east and n africa while russia gets central asia. Russia unlike the usa does what is in its national interest thus i am sure it is being compensated in ways we cant even imagine.
A blog about the rise of Russia, Russian-Armenian relations and Eurasian geopolitics
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.
The new regime is up Turkey's ass. They have Turkish flags flying everywhere and their leaders are holding the Turkish republic as a model for their future. Already billions in contract have been signed and Erdogan was one of the first leaders to land there.

Not saying new regime is better, just saying that Gadaffi's regime wasn't particularly pro-Armenian and rather took it to itself to specifically vote with Azerbaijan, thus I could care less what happens there - the government will be anti-Armenian either way. I absolutely have no sympathy for Gadaffi or his allies.

A regime that wasn't up Turkey's ass is better than a regime that is not. Libya voting for Azerbaijan is superficial "Islamic solidarity", can you blame them when Armenia makes no effort into penetrating Africa in terms of diplomatic relations? Not to mention there are no Armenians in Libya (Lebanon, Syria, Iran, Egypt, UAE abstained).
Our government should be demanding explanations from Cambodia, Columbia, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Moldova, Serbia, Tuvalu and Uganda for different reasons, even if some of them are obvious why they voted for Azerbaijan.
We should also be rewarding Angola and Vanuatu with closer diplomatic relations.

Libya could have at least refrained from voting. All I'm saying with this is that I won't have any sympathy for the Libyan regime or Gadaffi. Yeah maybe they are the lesser of 2 evils, but still 2 evils to me.
That resolution was as a result of us sleeping at the wheel, and not actively counteracting Azerbaijan's ferocious information war. Azerbaijan is organised with organisations and government structures dedicated to the information war, for us our organisation is very loose. There are important lessons we have to learn from this. Islamic countries have an agreement via the OIS to help Azerbaijan in the Karabakh issue, though I doubt how real that agreement is, especially from countries like Iran. It's mostly the Sunni countries like Saudi Arabia and Pakistan that are ferociously anti-Armenian.
