How did they get away with massacring thousands of Azeris in the aftermath of the Soviet collapse back in 1992 and occupying territory internationally recognized as Azeri?
>>17434784They didn't. Did you miss the latest developments?
>>17434784why does Armenia split Azerbaijan into two?
>>17434788Back then they did. The conflict was resolved only once Russia was clearly weaker than everyone but to illegally invade, cleanse and occupy territory internationally recognized as Azerbaijan's and holding it for so long is quite a feat, especially coming from a nation that suffered a genocide
>>17434784Because during the early 1990s the West was busy expanding its influence in Eastern Europe and influencing the break-away states of the USSR that they had access to - Caucasus on the other hand is far away from the Western core, cut off from Europe by the Black Sea and rigid mountains with little to no resources aside from Azerbaijan's oil on top being firmly inside the Russian sphere. Even today 80% of the reason why there was barely any wigger aid coming to armenia was because of it being outside Euro sphere.
>>17434784The south Caucasus is too far away from Western powers, so their influence is minimal.Armenia occupied Nagorno-Karabakh for so long basically because the Russians supported them against Azerbaijan after the Soviet collapse. However, when that help from Russia dried up, Azerbaijan invaded. That's basically all there is to it.Of course, numerous other countries sold arms and weapons to both sides throughout all of this time.
>>17434795The soviets drew borders bad in purpose to make the SSR divided and dependent on Moscow
>>17434795it splits the country but not the nation as the whole northwest of iran is also azeri
Nagorno Karabakh was always ethnically Armenian.
>>17435724Not anymoreVae victis
>>17434795It won't, soon enough.
>>17434784Soviets orchestrating ethnic tensions who would have guessed Region was ethnically Armenian and Armenians were protecting their people while still the need vengace loomed over themTurks and Azers are well known for their animalistic behaviour towards anything other and so was the case for Armenians at the time as well in general for the last century since they killed roughly 1/3 of their nationFor some troglodytic reason the Turks and Azers decided to base their whole personality around being the most insufferable irredentists on Earth so it's no wonder nobody really supports them; just look at Syria currently
>>17434795Shirvan was Iranian and was turkified by Shia Turkish refugees fleeing into shirvan and Iran. The Nakhichevan enclave was turkified by the Safavids who deported most of the Armenians to inner Persia and settled qizilbash turks and Islamized a sizable portion of the Armenian population. Under Russian rule the Armenian population didn’t recover enough for Stalin to consider giving it to Armenia.
In 1918 the Turkish army of enver pasha that crossed into Azerbaijan massacred Armenians in shaki, vartashen oguz, gabala, yevlakh, ismayilli and shamakhi many of whose were the descendants of Caucasian Albanians who spoke Armenian. Along with a portion of the Armenian population of shusha and Baku and agulis. Then in 1988 most of the Armenians were kicked out of gadibay and the surviving villages in the Caucasian Albanian provinces. Even though they were the medieval and ancient natives of the area. The Azerbaijanis of Armenia were qizilbash squatter settlers and Safavid era Islamized Armenian descendantsBut of course project more
>>17436695Sometimes I really wish the Turkish partition went through after ww1. Or even that the Soviets decided to go through with their planned invasion of Turkey. Purely because Turks are inbred imperialist mongrels who can't keep their genocide boner in their pants.
>>17434784Because Armenians were the favorite lapdogs of Russia
>>17436911Oh yea totally. Which is exactly why they did fuckall when the totally-not-Turkish-lapdog Azeris ethnically cleansed 100,000 Armenians last year. Do you faggot roaches even believe yourselves when you say this shit? Are you that retarded?
>>17436919At that time, they were tho. This time they didn't act because they couldn't.
