...i think the issue merits its own thread,
...are Armenians European, and living in the Russian Sphere; indeed it is a possibility that Europeans and Russians may see it that way.
...in any case, Turkey has chosen to find a way to involve another neighbour into open hostility, and with the loss of civilian lives.
...let's not forget Cyprus' immediate reaction toward Armenia, as an ally, and Greece who have admitted that they have made the same commitment to them.
...while in Belarus, only Cyprus reminds the EU; of sanctions, to have meaning, based on Universal Principals, tough issues like Turkey's Erdogan cannot be ignored because "real money" is involved, they cannot pick and choose.
...and, just when "sanctions" started taking shape, out pops this little war; cheers!
...here's a thought, is it in Armenia where Russia joins NATO (and the EU); that Turkey leaves (to join China's sphere)?
