I mean it's not exactly new. This is another flaring up of a conflict/geopolitical meddling that has been going on for decades.

Oil prices are going to be in the dumper for a while so ol'ilham probably has a plan.

As for moral authority, both sides openly engaged in ethnic cleansing during the war and even today you have large populations in both countries that are refugees/descendants of refugees. I know in Azerbaijan at least this still carries a stigma and there are still families living in half-finished khrushchyovki on the edge of Baku.

These always half make me want to visit the Caucuses, and half terrify me of them.

"Come, see the Caucuses!
See our sights.
Sample our food.
See our priests preaching ethnic cleansing.
Watch our fancy prancing lads.
See the old architecture.
Look at the attractive women.
See our death squads.
See our singers who look like that Ukrainian guy you used to buy ecstasy from in your apartment building..."

what you're afraid of probably won't kill you, and people need to go places and meet people who they might be afraid of to realize, hey, that wasn't so bad. it's also about trust and respect. not going native exactly but kinda like lawrence of arabia. pack light but having some stuff to give away like american cigarettes helps. you know you've made it when the guy you're with says "if your life is ever at risk, it won't be until all of my men are dead."

Rime(?) had a thread about driving around the caucuses and it looked super cool. my heritage is primarily armenian so i would like to go there sometime (probably a smouldering ash-land by the time i could go)

if you can go to georgia they make khacha pura which is a cheese boat with an egg ontop. i've made it before, it's really good.

MBS probably sees this as an excuse to hit back at Turkey after Erdogan backed Qatar and leaked the info about Jamal Khashoggi's murder.

Official Joe Biden statement condemns Russia for "arming both sides" (LMAAOOOOO) but thankfully avoids going full Ataturk?

"Biden's website posted:

I am deeply concerned by the outbreak of hostilities in Nagorno-Karabakh and call for urgent de-escalation, restoring the ceasefire, and a resumption of negotiations between Armenia and Azerbaijan. The United States should be pushing for more observers along the ceasefire line and calling for Russia to stop cynically providing arms to both sides, while reviewing our own security assistance programs to ensure no military capabilities are being repurposed for offensive means.

The Trump administration also needs to step up its diplomatic efforts, together with fellow OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs France and Russia, to seek a peaceful resolution and to support confidence-building measures. The eruption of hostilities in Nagorno-Karabakh runs the risk of escalating into a larger regional conflict, which is why third parties in the region must stay out of this conflict and the Minsk Group mediators must immediately seek de-escalation and a return to negotiations.

I like how we're barely a day into a conflict nobody knows anything about in a part of the world no one cares about but already the same pre-packaged positions of people who already hate so and so and love so and so are already being transferred over.

Honestly after looking at everything I dont support either side in this, I cant cheer for armenia because they're backed by russia, crazed christian nationalists and arab fascism, and I cant support azerbaijan because they're allies with Israel and it seems like they're the ones who started this. so whatever.

I loving hate conflicts in the social media age because for all intents and purposes you might as well know nothing.
