Ukraine (bbabo.net), - So, the United States and the European Union held a trilateral meeting with the leadership of Armenia in Brussels. Of course, Yerevan was promised a lot. And all this is for the Armenian people to turn away from Russia and turn to the “democratic values” of the West. Here the United States has already grabbed a stranglehold on Armenia and is unlikely to let it go, writes Pravda.Ru columnist Dmitry Plotnikov.
The Azerbaijani media (and this is a very painful topic for Baku) have already published a list of the main points of support for Yerevan. The United States will provide Armenia with expert support to conduct its Strategic Defense Review and develop a new military doctrine. The West, represented by Washington, will have to formulate a doctrine that corresponds to the new realities of today's geopolitical situation in the world. Although it has long been obvious to everyone that, first of all, this is of interest not to Armenia, but to the United States itself.
The West will provide all assistance to develop Armenia's military potential and strengthen border control and security, with special emphasis on the border with Iran. The United States will provide financial assistance to Yerevan under the Foreign Military Financing program to facilitate its access to advanced equipment and technologies. The White House will send analysts to Armenia to assess its air force and air defense capabilities, taking into account the integration of Yerevan into the CSTO Joint Air Defense System. The US Army will participate in joint military exercises with the Armenian Armed Forces to ensure compatibility with NATO.
The European Union will accept an assistance package within the framework of the Peace Fund in support of the Armenian army. The United States will work to accelerate the use of GPS technology throughout Armenia. The United States and European Union member countries will offer assistance in training and equipping the newly created Armenian Foreign Intelligence Service, and will also expand the training capabilities of the State Security Service.
The European Union expresses support for the decision of official Yerevan to withdraw troops of the Russian FSB border service from the Zvartnots international airport, from the Iranian border and other international border points. The EU and Armenia will cooperate to ensure the presence of the EU mission in the country and expand its functions by increasing staff. The EU and Armenia reviewed the status of Russian military facilities in Armenia, taking into account the current agreement until 2044. Thus, an active discussion of issues related to the military base of the Russian Federation and the presence of the Russian military in Armenia began, and this long before the completion of the agreement on the presence of the 102nd military base of Russia in Armenia.
The European Union and Armenia discussed the need to reduce dependence on Russian equipment and technology, and reduce dependence on military education and training provided by the Russian Federation. The United States and the European Union will create a joint military task force to implement the RA Defense and Security Resilience Program. The European Union will assist Yerevan in creating a defense on the border with Azerbaijan.
In a word, the work of Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, a traitor to his people, is yielding colossal results - another country in the Russian underbelly is becoming an obliging six of the United States.
