    ridiculous. The next thing we’ll hear is QP whining about no support from EU and US. Can somebody explain that strategy that the folks in charge have in mind? Who should we rely on in case of an Azerbaijani aggression?

  3. Last year, Suren Papikyan had a talk with the deputy chairman of the military council of the People’s republic of China. Where they had a conversation about “a number of issues related to teh cooperation in the defense filed and its **potential** for development” (Back in Oct 2023 https://www.1lurer.am/en/2023/10/30/Suren-Papikyan-and-Deputy-Chairman-of-Military-Council-of-People-s-Republic-of-China-discussed-issu/1021930

    He had attended the 10th Beijing Xiangshan Forum opening ceremony.

    I assume we are going to participate in the 11th Beijing Xiangshan Forum, which will be held on Sept 12-14.

    Back in June, the Chinese PLA delegation visited **both Azerbaijan** and Armenia. http://eng.chinamil.com.cn/CHINA_209163/Exchanges/News_209188/16317142.html

    We can assume that the “formal invitation for the 11th Xiangshan forum” since that’s what they did in June 14 in Azerbaijan.

    The same day as the visit, this was stated https://arminfo.info/full_news.php?id=84549&lang=3

    Later on, in July 11, Allen Simonyan met with the Chinese Ambassador https://en.armradio.am/2024/07/11/the-process-of-continuous-deepening-of-armenian-chinese-relations-has-become-important/

    China later in August, said that they are ready to deepen security cooperation with us. https://horizonweekly.ca/en/china-says-ready-to-deepen-security-cooperation-with-armenia/

    And Asryan (Our army chief) has also said that Armenia-China defense cooperation is developing https://armenpress.am/en/article/1196749

    Armenia also opened its first historic China-Armenia airline. https://www.thearmenianreport.com/post/historic-direct-flights-between-armenia-and-china-launched-a-new-chapter-in-bilateral-relations

    Meanwhile, with Azerbaijan,

    it has been so that better relations were started. As Aliyev even accepted the Chinese PLA President in Azerbiajan.

    Here’s a report on China in the South Caucasus, and. What happened in each respective country https://gfsis.org/chinas-activities-in-the-south-caucasus-issue-117-17-6-2024-14-7-2024/

    Good stuff. We should foster as many connections with as many countries as possible.

    The naysayers forget how many top-level Western officials visit China on a regular basis lol it’s not black and white.
