В Ереване прошли акции протеста против поставок вооружений Азербайджану

В Ереване прошли акции протеста против поставок Россией вооружений Азербайджану. Демонстраты в Ереване считают, что эти поставки привели к началу боевых действий 2-го апреля в Карабахе.

Сотни молодых активистов прошли до посольства России в Ереване, скандируя "Позор!", "Свободная, независимая Армения!" Некоторые из них забросали яйцами здание посольства за что в итоге были задержаны полицейскими.

После последних боевых столкновений, произошедших в Карабахе, правительство Армении открыто пожаловалось на поставки вооружений Азербайджану.

В свою очередь, премьер-министр России Дмитрий Медведев во время посещения Еревана на прошлой неделе заявил, что поставки осуществляются с соблюдением "баланса сил" в зоне конфликта.

Медведев заявил, что в случае, если Россия перестанет поставлять оружие, то её место займет кто-то другой, и в итоге в регион начнут поставлять более мощные вооружения.

На прошлой неделе вице-премьер РФ Дмитрий Рогозин в эфире радиостанции "Эхо Москвы" заявил, что поставки российского вооружения Армении и Азербайджану формируют баланс, удерживающий регион от военной эскалации.

"Когда мы поставляем вооружение (Армении и Азербайджану - прим. ТАСС), мы точно знаем, что есть определенный баланс, и этот баланс как раз является сдерживающим фактором от перерастания войны в серьезный (конфликт). Как только мы оттуда уйдем, как только мы перестанем быть военно-техническим партнером и Армении, и Азербайджана, там появятся ребята гораздо более "изощренные" в политике - и они устроят там реальную бойню", - считает Рогозин.

Рогозин отметил, что "стреляет-то не оружие, люди стреляют", и посетовал на "демагогию" вокруг этого вопроса, возникшую, по его словам, после обострения ситуации в Нагорном Карабахе.

Последние события стали первым серьезным испытанием в отношениях между союзниками по Организации Договора о коллективной безопасности Арменией и Россией. Но уже ясно, что в Армении назревает недовольство, которое России придеться как-то решать.

В ходе последних боевых столкновений между сторонами были убиты десятки людей в том числе и гражданские лица. Перемирие удалось достичь 5 апреля при активном посредничестве России.

Germany accuses Russia of cyberattacks and disinformation campaign

The German government holds Russia responsible for a cyberattack on German air traffic control, and for targeted disinformation campaigns before the last federal election. According to the German Foreign Office in Berlin, the incidents could be clearly attributed to the Russian military intelligence service, the GRU. In response, the Russian ambassador to Berlin was summoned to the Foreign Ministry. "We have been observing a massive increase in threatening hybrid activities by Russia for some time now," a spokesperson for the Foreign Ministry stated. These range from disinformation campaigns and espionage to cyberattacks and sabotage attempts. The aim is to divide society, sow distrust, and undermine confidence in democratic institutions. The spokesperson added that with these actions, Russia is "very concretely threatening our security, not only through its war of aggression against Ukraine, but also here in Germany."  The Foreign Ministry spokesperson explained that the cyberattack on air traffic control in August 2024 was clearly attributed to the hacker collective "APT28," known as "Fancy Bear," and to the responsibility of the Russian military intelligence service, the GRU. Furthermore, it could now be "conclusively stated" that Russia had attempted "to influence and destabilize both the last Federal election and the ongoing internal affairs of the Federal Republic of Germany." There was "absolutely irrefutable evidence" for this". The so-called "Storm 1516" campaign, which has been running since 2024, is allegedly backed by "reliable information" that the Moscow-based think tank "Center for Geopolitical Expertise" is behind it. The Center is also said to be supported by Russian military intelligence. Its primary aim is to influence democratic elections in the West. (Click the image to read more).
