fra le due ex repubbliche sovietiche non è mai stata così in bilico.
Da ormai settimane i civili armeni si addestrano in palestre improvvisate all'utilizzo di armi e tecniche di guerra. Promettono di combattere fino all'ultimo connazionale, invocano un intervento in loro

1/11 Russia's FM #Lavrov is leaving for #Turkey in a week. Attention! In #Ankara, Lavrov will also discuss the settlement of #NagornoKarabakh with Turkish FM Cavusoglu, in addition to the topics of #Syria, #Ukraine. Zakharova announced this information today. What does it reveal?
2/ 🇷🇺 no longer hides that Karabakh is the subject of its and 🇹🇷's political trade. 🇷🇺 can concede one benefit to 🇹🇷 in the Karabakh issue, and instead receive a benefit in the directions of Syria, Ukraine. The settlement of the NK issue actually fell victim to 🇷🇺-🇹🇷 cooperation.
1/ Today #Azerbaijan's armed forces closed the Goris-Stepanakert highway between Aghavno and Tegh villages. The government of #NagornoKarabakh reports that the new Tegh-Kornidzor dirt highway of Syunik marz is ready. It bypasses the closed road.
#Armenia #LachinCorridor
#Armenia #LachinCorridor
2/ This road connects to the new Kornidzor-Hin shen road (Lachin Corridor) commissioned in Aug 2022. Asphalting works of the Tegh-Kornidzor road are in progress by Armenia. Tegh-Kornidzor dirt road is passable.
3/ With this, it is possible to carry out humanitarian supplies to Karabakh by Russian peacekeepers and the International Committee of the #RedCross. Russian peacekeepers control that road on the border of Nagorno-Karabakh, near the Hakar river bridge.
1/5 The armed forces of Azerbaijan went to provocation in #NagornoKarabakh. On March 25, they violated the line of contact in the Shushi-Lisagor section and occupied the territory of Nagorno-Karabakh.

2/5 The government of #Karabakh expects the peacekeeping forces of the #Russia to take steps to eliminate the #Azerbaijani violation. For days, 🇦🇿 has been spreading the lie that ammunition is being transported from 🇦🇲 to NK via the Stepanakert-Ghaibalishen-Lisagor mountain road.
3/5 It was a false pretext in order to carry out this provocation. Karabakh announced that, being surrounded for more than 100 days, this mountain road is being used to communicate with 4 villages of Stepanakert, Shushi regions.
1/7 #Azerbaijan talking about the integration of #NagornoKarabakh continues terrorist acts agnst #Armenians. In the previous days the #Azerbaijani forces opened fire at the people carrying out pruning work in the vineyards of #Machkalashen community, MartunI region, NK. #Armenia
2/7 There are no casualties. Agricultural works have been stopped. The villagers told Azatutyun r/s that the Azerbaijanis were not deterred by the presence of Russian "peacekeepers". The Russians were present in the vineyards, but 🇦🇿 fired from large-caliber machine guns.
#OTD 22 Mar 1920, #Azerbaijan'i forces began a systematic massacre of #Armenia'ns living in the town of Shushi, #NagornoKarabakh. The Massacre resulted in the complete destruction of Armenian district of Shushi & an almost complete elimination of its Armenian population. #History
According to the 1917 publication of the Caucasian Calendar, there were 43,869 residents in Shushi in 1916. The city was composed of 23,396 Armenians who formed 53.3 percent of the population, and 19,091 Shia Muslims (mainly Azerbaijanis) who formed 43.5 percent of the population
The total death toll of the Shushi massacre remains a matter of dispute, with figures being offered from as low as several hundred being offered,to as high as 20,000. Citing a contemporary Armenian government report, Hovannisian places the death toll of the massacre at 500.
Today, Sergey Lavrov visited #Russia's faithful ally #Azerbaijan. #Putin really supported #Aliyev in arming the army and winning the war against #Armenia and #NagornoKarabakh.

#Artsakh/ #NagornoKarabakh is my home. It has been an honor to serve as State Minister for our people, our republic & our unwavering struggle for a free Artsakh.
I want to thank President Haratunyan for our time serving together. While we may have different views on the issues, we have common red lines, which no one can cross –– red lines important to preserve our dignity & ensure #Artsakh is free & #Armenian.
The people of Artsakh have demonstrated their strength in unity and resolve to stand together in their fight for justice and self-respect. While we have accomplished a lot together during this very challenging period, I am confident, we can do much more.

1️⃣ #Ukraine 🇺🇦
After nearly a year of fighting, there is no end in sight for the war in Ukraine.
The West should continue its balancing act of backing Kyiv while avoiding a direct clash with Russia and keeping the door open to negotiations.

Neither Russian nor Western-sponsored talks have brought the sides closer to a sustainable agreement and clashes have continued.
The failure of talks could well result in renewed war.

#OTD 10 Dec 1991, 30 years ago, a nationwide referendum on the political future of #Artsakh was held in the Republic of Artsakh (#NagornoKarabakh Republic), as a result of which the overwhelming majority of the voters (99.89%) voted for independence.
#Armenia #History 🧵
#Armenia #History 🧵
The referendum was held in full compliance with the then national legislation in force, democratic procedures & norms of int'l law. All necessary conditions were created for holding a referendum on the entire territory of the Republic. 82% of the citizens took part in the voting.
The preparation and holding of the referendum took place against the background of a purposefully pursued policy of Azerbaijan to escalate tensions, which became explosive and subsequently turned into a full-scale war against Artsakh and its people.
Hoy se cumplen 31 años de la (re)declaración de independencia de #Azerbaiyán, así que lo celebramos con un hilo sobre esta Tierra del Fuego que nada tiene que ver con Ushuaia, el país de los volcanes de barro y los mares que arden 🇦🇿🔥
La historia de #Azerbaiyan empieza en la cueva Azykh, en donde habitaron los primeros humanos (o casi) en la zona.
Se encontraron fósiles de neandertal de unos 300 mil años. Pero además tenían ¡CHIMENEA! La 1° de la historia. La hermandad entre azeríes y fuego comenzó entonces.

BREAKING: #Armenia 🇦🇲 and #Azerbaijan 🇦🇿 have agreed to sign a formal peace deal which includes an official delimitation of the border by the end of the year.
This deal (if successfully followed through) would be a major diplomatic victory for the European Union.
Just last week intens negotiations between 🇦🇲🇦🇿 were taking place under 🇫🇷🇪🇺 supervision. The Kremlin was completely left out of the process

News of a possible deal does not mean that peace in the #Caucasus is within reach. The #Kremlin could try to spoil an agreement, #Aliyev is still an expansionist authoritarian, and the future status of #NagornoKarabakh will probably remain undetermined.
Ayer fue el día de la independencia de #Abkhazia / #Abjasia así que lo celebramos con un hilo sobre este ¿país? Bueno, este territorio que casi todo el planeta reconoce como parte de #Georgia, pero 5 países consideran independiente, y que fue campeón del mundo de fútbol ⚽️🏆
Abjasia y Osetia del Sur/Tsjinvali son 2 regiones habitadas por etnias particulares. En tiempos de URSS, la represión al nacionalismo mantuvo la estabilidad, pero en los 80 Georgia estableció al georgiano como único idioma oficial y abolió la autonomía de Osetia. Y eso no gustó.
Ya que Georgia se independiazaba y que el clima político era caótico, Abjasia aprovechó: hizo un referéndum en 1991 y declaró, primero, la voluntad de seguir bajo el mando de Moscú y, el 23/7/92, la independencia.
¿Resultado?
Guerra.

Esta semana, el 21 de septiembre, #Armenia cumplió 31 años de independencia, así que lo celebramos con un hilo sobre el primer país oficialmente cristiano del mundo, que tiene un Arca de Noé, una mano de oro y es cuna de todos los sufijos "ian".
Cuenta la leyenda que el arca de Noé encalló en el monte #Ararat, en la actual Turquía. Y dicen que descubrieron los restos del navío.
Se supone que el patriarca Hayk, fundador de Armenia, era tataratatara nieto de Noé. O chozno, que es una palabra que no uso nunca.

#Armenia fue reino y/o imperio y también parte de muchos otros imperios, entre ellos el Persa, el Romano, el Bizantino y el Otomano, que dividió Armenia y a su población en Occidental y Oriental en el siglo XVI. Esto traería unos cuantos problemas más adelante... y hasta hoy.
In 1920, League of Nations (@UN) rejected #Azerbaijan's request for membership referring the fact that it had never been a state before & appropriated the name of the Persian province; its also impossible to define 🇦🇿 borders due to territorial pretensions on #Armenia & #Georgia.
Among other contentious issues there was the issue of the status of #NagornoKarabakh. Because of the sovietization of the region the issue fell out of the agenda of international organizations.

"It is not only attacking military bases but civilian communities and infrastructure. The APPG expresses its strongest condemnation of the Azerbaijan regime for this latest act of violence and extends our deep concern for the victims and their families."
"These acts of aggression have clearly been timed to take advantage of the world’s attention to events in #Ukraine & recently the widespread mourning for death of Queen #Elizabeth. Such aggressive opportunism needs to be condemned in strongest terms & met with a robust response."
