I have been informed that he does not rule

The way she talks is seriously creepy as hell. The stare, the eyebrow jerks, the little smile peeping through while imagining killing Russians. It’s serious fascistface
It’s one thing to have a list of low level civvies to kill, it’s quite another to have a publicly available kill list that includes heads of state
Steven Seagal is an international diplomat now who goes around giving swords to Maduro and hanging out with Putin. He actually rules
Russia helped out Syria, Belarus and Kazakhstan out of their own pocket to maintain allies in the region. Syria doesn't really have much more of a resource export economy than Armenia, and what little they have is currently illegally occupied by the SDF and American/kurdish forces and being stolen anyway. Yet Russia still helped.
The difference is that Syria and Belarus are loyal allies who stand up to the west. They developed their own armies and defenses and fight for their existence. Armenia doesn't seem to want to do that, based on Pashinyan's actions Armenia's long term goal is to slowly be dissolved from negligent defenses and terrible diplomacy
Making kill lists of foreign heads of state. Normal country things
only got fired because GOP US Senators were making a stink about her threats (rightfully so) as Zelenskyy was at the US congress begging for money
Iran is way better than Azerbaijan, they are anti-imperialist and don't persecute Shia
No one is suporting armenia. Not even armenia.
Exactly. Pashinyan cowers in Yerevan and ignores the attack until riot crowds form at his palace. He did absolutely nothing to bolster NK defenses in this interim period. He refuses to activate the Armenian military proper to get involved. He's basically just surrendering, but in an even more cowardly way because he doesn't want the negative flack from that so he's just letting the invasion happen in front of him instead and pretending it isn't happening.
People ask why Russian peacekeepers aren't doing anything to stop the Azeris, why isn't ARMENIA doing anything? Why should Russia fight for a country that won't fight for itself?
I mean "supported by America" is a stretch since America ain't gonna do jack shit to piss off the Turks. They'll make a statement and that's it
The ironic thing about the new conservative-communist alliance of convenience is that the centrists and liberals are the ones who act like fascists, not the "extremists"
