At least the world has one sensible leader... Thank God for Vladimir Putin!

"Russian peacekeeper" is an oxymoron.

I wonder how the Sultan of Ankara feels about those S-400s he purchased from the Russians? Maybe some buyers remorse? Wonder what level of service the Russian techs will give him in the future? Mr. Erdogan is not a very smart man sometimes.

I also wonder if the US is going to stop the military assistance it has been giving Azerbaijan the last several years? The US has rebuilt several military airfields to NATO standards complete with NATO style command centers. Maybe a little buyers remorse on the US side too?

Turkey wants to build an "Ottoman Empire 2.0"! And all the Turkics must live under Erdogan's rule!

They will do for this what they did for Syria.

"Russian peacekeeper" is an oxymoron.

'Peacekeeping' missions usually end up not.

UN peacekeeping missions often morph into wars. The one in Somalia turned into an urban guerilla war. The ones for Haiti since 1994 have pretty much done the same. And after NATO whipped the crap out of Serbia in the 1999 Kosovo War, Russia just had to send a 'peacekeeper' force uninvited.

Russia has interfered in Ukraine, Georgia and now this. Putin is trying to become a modern day czar. Communist ideology is gone in Russia, the U.S.S.R. is one but Putin wants a modern version of the old czardom.

Something had to be done to tame NATO invaders.

Russia has interfered in Ukraine, Georgia

The West started the interference in Ukraine, here is the illegal coup in 2014. And it was Georgia who started the war in 2008, not visa versa.

and now this

Not happy this war is over?

The ethnic Armenians in Nagorno-Karabakh need to face the reality that an emboldened Erdogan will continue to use proxy Azeris to keep up the pressure on the enclave. He is a fan of all things about the Ottoman Empire, including its elimination of a million Armenians a century ago. The picture yesterday of hundreds of vehicles fleeing to Armenia will continue until all have fled the enclave. It may have been their homeland for a thousand years, but they have no future if they stay there.
