Land
Armenia's 1993 invasion of Azerbaijan was even more brutal than Russia's war with Ukraine: massacres, expulsion of 300,000 civilians, every building was burned down, war crimes upon war crimes.

USSR gave Azeri land to Armenia which was Armenia ethic massacred Azeri people but it get more complicated as Armenia government failed to quickly annexed the land as part of Armenia, as Russia have been backing Armenians since until the PM came to power and his trying to become pro west even though Armenia offers nothing to USA apart from it bordering Iran.

Mind you that Russia armed both Azeris and Armenia military and Azeri president’s family have billions of invest in Russia.
Both nations are Russia partners but Russia support Armenia more as a Christian nation but their PM, want to eat his cake and have at the same time.

For example Russia annexed Crimea as part of Russia meaning any attack there is directly on mother Russia but Armenia failed to do that when their ethic expelled Azeri from NK region.
oga stop spilling what you don't know about . Who told you USSR gave azeri land to Armenia. This is how guys goes to internet smearing false campaign. The Karabakh Armenia has been living on that land before anything called USSR. Their historic monuments are there. It's failure of USSR that caused ist Karabakh war.

⚡WSJ:

🇺🇦 Ukrainian pilots may begin using F-16s in combat as early as February 2024.

The first pilots with a good command of English can be trained in five months. It is noted that this is the assessment of the Ukrainian side.

The first group of fewer than 10 people is expected to begin training at Morris Air National Guard Base in Tucson, Arizona. They are the first to switch to the F-16.

At the same time, dozens of Ukrainian pilots will begin studying English at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio.

The 🇺🇸 American side is more reserved in its forecasts. F-16s require approximately 16 hours of maintenance on the ground per hour of the vehicle in the air.

Training technicians can be more difficult than training pilots.

⚡🇮🇱 Israeli Prime Minister urged Jews to rely only on themselves if they decide to go to Ukraine.

“God has not always protected us, neither on European soil nor on Ukrainian soil," Benjamin Netanyahu said.

According to him, a trip to 🇺🇦 Uman is dangerous for pilgrims. Therefore, Israeli citizens who still decide to go there for Rosh Hashanah should bear personal responsibility for this.

mongol empire
Poland ruled over Russia
Sweden ruled over Russia

U are probably talking about in 700 BCE or AD, was that even colonialism. And I highly doubt it's Poland or sweeden, it's too easy to just say sweeden and Poland colonised Russia. The history is deeper than that there's kind of some confusion on who actually colonised Russia. I did know people call crimerran or something like that from between Ukraine and Belarus once conquer Rus.

But in the true sense of it. Russia was not colonized by another foreign power. Instead, Russia expanded through a process of colonization and territorial conquest known as the Russian Empire. This expansion was driven by Russian rulers and explorers, leading to the gradual acquisition of vast territories in Eastern Europe, Siberia, and Central Asia. The formation of the Russian state and its territorial growth occurred over many centuries, with various rulers and periods of expansion.

1237-1240: Mongols invade Kievan Rus, destroying cities including Kiev and Moscow. The Khan of the Golden Horde rules Russia until 1480.

1480-1505: Ivan III—known as Ivan the Great—rules, freeing Russia from the Mongols, and consolidating Muscovite rule.

Colonised to me when you rule over a land and subject her citizens to your power and pay taxes to you.

The Roman Empire style of colonialism was different from Greek empire and British empire, in fact I will say the USA Empire government is using the Roman Empire style now around the world.

I can say the USA government colonised Afghanistan for 20 years because they subject Afghan citizens and Afghanistan can’t do anything without USA then.

The Oyo empire colonised today’s Benin rep because the people in that land then pay taxes to Oyo empire.

The Benin kingdom why of colonised was similar to Oyo empire.
wrong sorry.

Joe Biden is rapidly deteriorating in real time into an unmitigated liability.


JUST IN: NATO says that in 2024 it will hold its biggest military exercise since the Cold War, with the involvement of 41,000 troops, 500 air combat missions and over 50 ships.
Wait 41K troops? And that’s the largest military exercise :-.
NATO need to hold 1M troops exercises not 41K

So, we can say that the England never got colonised by Roman Empire then again by William the Conqueror, if we are to use your logic as this happened over 500 years ago.

But note that the name Russia Empire started by Peter I, called "Peter the Great" from November 1721, until its dissolution in September 1917

If that’s the case then Russia Empire never got colonised by Mongolia empire and Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth.

⚡🇷🇺 Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov on joint military exercises between Armenia and the United States:

Such an agreement looks all the more strange because for two years now 🇦🇲 Armenia has been refusing to take part in CSTO exercises, explaining that if the CSTO, as a union entity with the participation of Armenia, had condemned 🇦🇿 Azerbaijan, then Armenia would have started working in the CSTO.

When we ask why you communicate with 🇺🇸 Americans and 🇪🇺 Europeans who do not condemn Azerbaijan, they say, they are not our allies, you should condemn. Such strange, simple logic. But I really hope that all the allied obligations that exist between us and we value them, that they will take effect and prevail.

CNN ATTACKS ELON | BLINKEN'S REPLY WILL SHOCK YOU

CNN has asked for ‘repercussions’ against Elon, saying he ‘sabotaged a military operation by Ukraine.’

I’m not making this up...

Elon refuses to directly participate in a war, and CNN calls it ‘sabotage' 😂

It gets worse…

US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken responds to CNN’s Jake Tapper by ignoring his allegations and pointing out the BENEFITS Starlink brought the Ukrainian people!

Tapper dismisses Blinken’s reply, since it doesn’t criticize Elon, and moves to a new stupid agenda: Elon’s ‘secret talks’ with the Senior Russian Officials, claiming Elon is doing his own “diplomatic outreach to the Russian Government.”

Blinken AGAIN ignores the stupid question and AGAIN highlights how important and impactful Starlink has been to Ukraine.

And guess how Tapper wraps up the interview?

“It sounds like Starlink's so important the US government doesn't want to risk offending a capricious billionaire.”

WHAT?!

Biden’s administration has a history of attacking Elon:

There are already multiple bogus investigations against his companies ongoing right now.

Remember last week’s secret ‘glass house’ that the DOJ and SEC are apparently investigating? 😂

How about X getting fined for refusing to hand over Trump’s personal Twitter data and information to prosecutors?

Or SpaceX getting sued by the DOJ for hiring Americans in the company’s hiring process? (not making this up!)
