WAR Breaks out between Christian Armenia and Muslim Azerbaijan

 

 

As total war breaks out between Christian Armenia and Muslim Azerbaijan, Turkey which is also Islamic has come out in full support of Azerbaijan while Russia, as usual cucks out saying “ohhh you guys should make peace, bla bla bla!” instead of coming out in support of Armenia.

Despite Islamic Azerbaijan starting the war and the hostilities, cuckold Putin has called Armenian PM Pashinyan instead and told him to “halt the hostilities”. Yes people, this is your “Christian savior” right here, Vladimir Putin!

Members of Armenia’s army reserve were ordered to report to their local conscription office, on Sunday, shortly after their country’s forces engaged in heavy fighting with troops from Azerbaijan over disputed Nagorno-Karabakh.

The nationwide conscription call and the introduction of martial law were both announced by Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan. His Facebook post urged reservists to turn up at their territorial recruitment offices “for the sake of our homeland and for the sake of victory.”

The call to arms and martial law will be put in place because Azerbaijan may decide to attack Armenia, the premier clarified in an address to the nation later in the day.

Comprising around 44,000 active-duty troops – less than half of them conscripts – the Armenian military relies on a 210,000-strong standing reserve. Armenians who have completed military service as enlisted personnel bear an obligation to become soldiers in wartime up to the age of 50. Officers are mandated to remain in the reserve force until they turn 60.

The mobilisation comes shortly after intense fighting broke out along the border of Nagorno-Karabakh, a disputed territory wedged between Armenia and Azerbaijan. Both sides reported civilian casualties and blamed each other for starting hostilities that involved artillery shelling as well as the use of combat aircraft and heavy armor.

Earlier in the day, the Azerbaijani military reported the seizure of several strategic locations and settlements along the front line. The claim, however, was quickly rejected by the Armenians.

Meanwhile, Baku said it sees no need to follow Armenia’s lead by issuing a full conscription call. Reservists may be summoned by the army, but there’s “no such need” at present, Azeri military officials stated.

Pashinyan himself had earlier rebuked Turkey, a long-time ally of Azerbaijan and the culprit of the Armenian genocide, for interfering in the situation. Ankara voiced support for Baku in the unfolding stand-off and blamed Yerevan for the violence.

Hostilities between Azerbaijan and the ethnic Armenian Nagorno-Karabakh erupted after Azeri forces launched an offensive on Sunday morning. Baku said it was responding to shelling of its forces, but Yerevan rejected this justification, accusing its opponent of breaking a ceasefire.

The region, where the population is predominantly Armenian, broke away from Azerbaijan in the late 1980s, and relies on military and economic support from Yerevan. Amid the flareup, both Azerbaijan and Armenia imposed martial law and voiced their determination to fight on.

While populated and administered by ethnic Armenians, Baku considers the region as part of Azerbaijan. Both sides fought a war in the 1990s, triggered by Nagorno-Karabakh’s decision to cede from Azerbaijan following the dissolution of the USSR. Earlier on Sunday, the breakaway region also declared martial law and mobilized its male population.
