  1. I really hope that we had a good reason to recognize Palestine….

    Feels kind of hypocritical to buy Israeli arms now but I’m here for it

  2. Armenia wants to acquire MR-SAM sold by India since this is a Indo-Israeli jointly developed surface-to-air defense system

    The source in question cites the website ‘Bulgarian Military’. https://bulgarianmilitary.com/2024/06/18/armenia-eyes-cutting-edge-indo-israeli-mr-sam-defense-system/

    Bulgarian Military cites a website called Indian Defense Research Wing. https://idrw.org/after-akash-ads-armenia-eyes-more-air-defense-system-from-india/

    I think it’s pretty clear that if Armenia were to procure it, it would do so from India. But the source in question suggests that Armenia wants to get it from Israeli Aerospace Industries.

    This news is emerging just as Armenia recognized Palestine? What is going on?

    Until you see Papikyan smiling next to a mini-Barak it’s best to take news about the military with a grain of salt
