Armenien nähert sich einem Bruch mit Russland

Submission Statement: Armenia has been moving away from its alliance with Russia after feeling betrayed by Russia’s failure to support Armenia in its recent wars with Azerbaijan over Nagorno-Karabakh. Emil Avdaliani explains that Armenia has been expanding its ties with other countries like India and France for arms and has been reducing its participation in Russia-led military groupings like CSTO. Recent revelations that Russia tacitly allowed its ally Belarus to arm Azerbaijan have also soured relations further and accelerated Armenia’s moves away from Russia.
