Brothers-in-arms: Russia-Azerbaijan

[ASQ-1918]

Russian-Azerbaijani cooperation based on principles of strategic partnership exists in various fields. One of them (and actually one of the most important) is in the sphere of defense and military technology. Defense is a very sensitive topic in the Caucasus due to territorial conflicts between Azerbaijan and Armenia. Nonetheless, Russian-Azerbaijani cooperation in the sphere of defense is developing and now plays an important role in bilateral relations.

In 2011, according to data provided by the Center for World Arms Trade Analysis, Azerbaijan was the fifth-largest buyer of Russian arms. According to Russian services, Azerbaijan is ready to spend 1 billion dollars per year on buying Russian weapons.

bak bak military cooperation , bakalim ruslar sizi mi tercih edecek ermeni lerimi , size karsi soykirima yardim etmis ruslara hala yalakalik ediyorsunuz ve onlarin silahlarini aliyorsunuz , diyecek lafim yok

 

[ASQ-1918]

Tercih ile ne alakası var bunun? Ne diyoruz, iş başka, aşk başka. Bu onlar içinde, bizim içinde geçerli. Aslına bakarsan mantık olarak onların bize silah satmaması gerekir çünkü bizim düşmanımızla müttefikler, ama dediğimiz gibi, hatta onlar için bu dahada geçerli.

TR, you aren't glad that the Azerbaijanis are closing up to Russia?

In my opinion, Russians cannot be trusted.

I mean they cozy up to both Azerbaijan and Armenia. It's as if they treat both countries as puppets for arms sales.
