Good news, it’s high time for Armenia to be more dynamic after post Soviet sclerosis and ossification. CTSO is a bad joke in need of retirement. The Soviet Union has gone Georgia and Azerbaijan have moved on and diversified and so should Armenia
Of course, we Armenians need to follow in Ukraine’s footsteps, and finally destroy all of what little we have left of Armenia, all in the name of hurting Russians for Western interests. Got it. We’ll get on it ASAP!
These purchases are being made by Nikol’s refime mostly for show. Armenia is a defeated nation from within. Armenia needs to be saved from Armenians. At this rate, in an another major war, these weapons systems will burn before they even reach the battle zone.
So what is it you want ?
Don’t worry they are highly reliable system they are used against pakistan in kargil war between india and pak you can study about them
What a silly question. How about the reversal of Armenia’s Western led color revolution of 2018, which I am sure you supported…
Well written newsletter which I very much appreciate.
Indias weapons are world class and good enough to not only counter a country like China and Pakistan bit also deter them from taking any adventure on National Borders. Out of the Total of 4 wars( 3 in the past and one recently at Kargil) with Pakistan, India won all 4 and of the 2 wars ( all in the past ) Both Nation scored 1-1. Presently Indian weapons are reliable, deadly and cheap. Tejas Light combat aircraft is the best in the class with zero mishaps even during development stage, Brahmos is the most feared cruise missile considered as No 1 in the world, Swathi Radar (already supplied to Armenia) is the only one of its kind. Pinaka is a game changer and with MARK II and MARK III in development stage India would boast of the worlds best and longest range MBRL. Indias missile Industry is second to none . Light comba helicopters are the best of its kind.List goes on. So anyone who wants to think that Indian weapons are not good are free to become a laughing stock.Armenia already in talks for armed drones and anti drone system needs to buy Tejas, LCH with the range of waponery in them It would become a nightmare for the evil trio of Turkey, terrorist state of Pakistan and Azerbiajan. India is another name for TRUST
Agree.
We Indian Love Armenia Sooo Much….
ARMENIA is strong in its determination and togetherness which will and does add strength to defend itself from evil genocide countries such as: it’s obvious! The countries of the USA, France and India are good friends of ARMENIA!
Armenia is the perfect Indian ally against the rabid Erdogan and the Pakistan Army. But, nobody can help Armenia if its population keeps declining. Armenians must procreate more, keep increasing their GDP and spend more on defense. They will reach a state of equilibrium vis-a-vis Azerbaijan. It may take 25 years, but it can be done. Right now, Azerbaijan can attack Armenia with impunity.
