A_D_G Posted October 15, 2003 Report Share Posted October 15, 2003 (edited) Here is the scenario. The Azeris have launched a full out war against Karabagh. What are tactics we can use to win back the war and defend our people? Edited October 15, 2003 by A_D_G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armen Posted October 16, 2003 Report Share Posted October 16, 2003 Our tactics would clearly be fighting back with everything we've got. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AraManoogian Posted December 9, 2003 Report Share Posted December 9, 2003 You pose an interesting question, but the chances of any war starting again are very slim. Keep in mind that when we secured our boarders, we did it with very little equipment. Today we have much better and more equipment than we did back when the war ended. Today we also have Scud missiles that target Baku and the oil fields which means if Azerbaijan wanted to commit suicide, they would attack and see their country go up in flames literally. For that reason war will probably never start again and if it does, it will be very bad for both sides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armat Posted February 23, 2004 Report Share Posted February 23, 2004 I am not a military strategist by any means however I read some tactical books on ww2 and the basic principal remains the same that is, a force which is entrenched in a defensive positions would require twice or three times more energy, man power to overcome. Artsagh is well entrenched but I would not rule out the possibility of Azaris attacking again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joseph parikian Posted February 25, 2004 Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 Artsax MOVEMENT FIRST CONTINUOUS STRUGGLE FOR FREEDOM IN FORMER SOVIET UNION: US CONGRESSMEN STEPANAKERT, FEBRUARY 21. ARMINFO. The Artsax movement was the first continuous struggle for freedom in the former Soviet Union. >From the very beginning US Congress stood up for the right of the Artsax people to attain self-determination, say US congressmen Franck Pallone and Joe Knollenberg in their message to congratulate NKR President Arkady Ghoukassyan on the 16th anniversary of the historic session of the Artsax deputies proclaiming NKR's independence. Neither the Armenian pogroms in Sumqayit (1988) and Baku (1990) nor the ethnic cleansing by the Soviet and Azeri authorities in the early 90s could crush the Artsax people's aspiration to live independently. "Today we support you as strongly as in 1998," say the congressmen welcoming NKR's successful efforts to build stable democracy in a shaky region like the South Caucasus. Last year US Congress provided NKR with $5 mln for recovering after the Azerbaijan-imposed war. "We support your democracy and aspiration to live freely and welcome your commitment to establish peace and stability in the region." MANY PEOPLE IN RUSSIA FORGOT HOW IT ALL BEGAN IN Artsax YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 21. ARMINFO. The professor of the Diplomatic Academy of Russia's Foreign Ministry Tatyana Poloskova urges Azeri and Armenian experts to tightly cooperate on a solution to the Artsax conflict. She says that the Armenians and Azeris of Moscow are on normal terms. She even knows cases when the children of Baku Armenians go to an Azeri school in Moscow. Russia's approaches to the problem have become more balanced lately which could be seen during the last visit of the Azeri president to Moscow. Armenian, Azeri and Russian experts should hold a dialogue which cannot yet be held by the authorities. This may result in a third way to settle the conflict. Poloskova says that the Artsax conflict is the fruit of the reckless actions of those who broke down the Soviet Union without caring for its people. In this situation Russia should either remain an observer preserving the status quo or to take some step considered and approved by experts. Many people in Russia do not remember today how it all began in Artsax. Poloskova supports the idea of meetings between the Armenian and Azeri communities of Moscow expressed by the director of the Human Rights Institute of the Academy of Science Rovshan Mustafaev during his recent meeting with the Links NGO (UK). These meetings will show who is actually interested in the settlement and who is not. These meeting may pave the way for the settlement of other problems too. Russian experts should join the dialogue as it can lead to a redistribution of forces in the South CAucasus meeting the interests of transnational corporations and particularly of Russia who is searching for alternative routes for transporting oil to Europe ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From ArmInfo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
