No, Arthur. I understand you see yourself as Middle Eastern - it’s your personal choice. But Europe sees Armenia as European. And the monument to the Armenian alphabet is in line with other monuments dedicated to the ideas of European unity, peace, and integration.

It’s fascinating how differently people see themselves and their place in the world. I have seen many Armenians who feel somehow inferior to “white Americans” or Russians, and because of that they hesitate to call themselves European. In their minds, if Anglo-Americans or

One strange aspect of this debate is that Israel does not call for Iran to cease existing, while Iran’s leadership openly calls for Israel to cease existing. This framing creates problems for the whole region. At the same time, I’ve never heard a convincing explanation for why
Iran says the United States is pleading for a ceasefire. Ali Larijani, head of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, stated: “Tonight, we received messages from U.S. President Donald Trump through the Omani mediator, asking us to negotiate a ceasefire. Our response is that

Folks need to rethink their approach to this world. And learn from their mistakes. Finally. Azerbaijan was very smart to create alliances with Israel. Armenia was very stupid to not do so. The results were clear. Learn finally.
@_M_Mountain_ It’s good to see you’re consistent. Just bad takes on every subject. Bad takes all around.

For Armenia it will be better Israel to be the hegemon in the region instead of Islamists or Turkish nationalists.
🇮🇱🇮🇷🇹🇷#Israel appears to be changing its behavior after decades of defensive wars. As it seems to me, in Tel Aviv a decision may have been made to become a hegemon in the #MiddleEast: “If we are not allowed to exist as a normal country, then we will become a regional power.”

Former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett says Israel may have to wage a war against Turkey after Iran if it attempts to create any type of Islamic alliance. He says any Islamic alliance would automatically be considered terrorism and a threat to Israel. “We will not sit

One thing to learn from the Iran - US/Israel war is that cheap effective drones are the greatest weapon you can have. As I have been saying for years now - investments should primarily go to cheap effective drones. That’s the best defense. Not expensive jets and missile

The small red spot is Israel. And the surrounding Green is the Arab world. See the difference in size? I still don’t understand why other colonial nations should have the right to own massive amounts of land, but Jews are not allowed to have that tiny tiny red spot for

Armenia should certainly pursue a policy of mutually beneficial cooperation with the West and joining EU. But doing so intelligently, with a conscious desire of joining within the EU the block of nations led by Poland. EU is not a monolith - and that’s a great thing about it. If
Nearly half of Armenians say the country should pursue a pro-Western foreign policy, though most still support maintaining relations with both Western countries and Russia. This is according to a new poll conducted last month by the International Republican Institute among

German leadership within the EU has been deeply damaging for Europe. Figures like Merkel and Ursula von der Leyen bear major responsibility for policies - especially on mass migration - that have weakened the continent and worked against Europe’s own interests. Maybe it’s time
🇪🇺 Von der Leyen wants to scrap unanimity, end the "vetocracy". Long overdue!

This was the only time Russia actually helped Armenia. And guess what? It was during West-leaning Russian president Yeltsin.
🇦🇲🇦🇿🇹🇷🇷🇺 In 1992, when Turkey had serious intentions of intervening in the First Nagorno-Karabakh War on Azerbaijan's side, Russia threatened them with a *world war* to stop them from getting involved. On top of that, Russia sent Armenia over $1 billion (at that time) worth of

This is why Erdogan is so much smarter than Putin. Putin launched a war where, by his own words, “Slavic brothers” are killing each other. The kind of conflict that burns through your own civilizational base.
Turkish President Erdogan: No one should make miscalculations; no one should fall into the trap of the Zionist massacre network that seeks to pit brother against brother. We welcome the statements made by our brothers in the Iraqi Kurdish region and sincerely believe that they

Kremlin lackeys pretending to talk "tough" against Azerbaijan will never stop being funny. This responsibility, two months before the elections, is tasked to the lower echelons of the pro-Russian opposition to play to "nationalist" sentiment among voters. But here is the deal,

Mkhitar Heratsi was a great 12th-century #Armenian physician whose ideas were centuries ahead of their time. In his 1184 work Consolation of Fevers, he described infection as a living “mould” factor causing fever - an idea that anticipated the later discovery of microorganisms.
