KoRn Posted March 17, 2003 Report Share Posted March 17, 2003 US seeks air base in Armenia - Yerevan paper Haykakan Zhamanak15 Mar 03 YEREVAN Text of unattributed report by Armenian newspaper Haykakan Zhamanak on 15 March entitled "Military airport in Armenia" According to reliable sources, the US authorities have suggested to the Armenian authorities the opening of an American military base in Armenia, more precisely, a military airport. Our diplomatic sources say that the airports of Stepanavan, Dzhermuk and Kapan may be suitable for this role. In fact, the last two airports do not work, and according to our information, in the event that these airports are given to them, the Americans are ready to raise them to the desired level. It is hard to say how the Americans imagine a joint military presence for them and the Russians. But the idea is interesting in itself.

khodja Posted April 2, 2003 Report Share Posted April 2, 2003 The Turks worse fears could come true. The Turks are experts at psychological terror. This would turn the tables and make the Turks very uneasy. They would have a little competition. They think that they can dictate to the US. They really think that they are boss, since they have grabbed territories from Syria, Cyprus and Greece, as well as Armenia, and no one in the West has ever challenged them.
