With all due respect, what exactly were you expecting? For people to say that straight-up invading Ukraine and bombing, killing and raping was totally OK? Ukraine wasn't even attacking Russia and everything Russian media has put out has been one variant or another of insulting Ukrainians and...

False flag more likely.

Repulsed by an...offensive? An offensive to...counter their offensive? A counter-offensive, perhaps?

Russian higher-ups may not want to stop but that's not up to them. It's up to the soldiers, some of whom are already starting to refuse to fight. Not to mention that Russia does not have infinite supplies and manpower to throw at Ukraine let alone a steel plant in ONE GODDAMN CITY. What is that...

Taking of Azovstal is cancelled. Russia's basically given up on trying to have full control of Mariupol. "But it's just a steel works facility!" Yeah and like 1/8 of the city that Russia was trying to take. Now 12 BTGs are gonna be stuck guarding it to make sure Azov Battalion doesn't start...

Houthis are Syrians now?

Um, history is full of famous examples of a well-equipped and technologically and tactically superior army triumphing over a more numerous foe. Doubly so if the army in question is well-motivated and Ukrainians certainly are - no greater motivation than the defense of one's own home.

The same Kherson which Russians bombed to hell and had civilians protesting Russian occupation and even fighting back? Sure, very "legitimate" referendum there. Don't think it will change a thing, nobody will accept it and Russia won't even be able to pretend like the people there actually like...

People who don't want power are usually the best suited to lead. External appearance reflecting the rotten soul within?

Cool, maybe we'll get some more good video games coming out of Turkey besides Mount & Blade and Lovecraft-inspired FPS. There's a fair amount of aspiring and fairly talented devs in Azerbaijan who would love the opportunity to set up shop in Istanbul to get their game concepts realized.

Difficult to say because NKR army is basically the Armenian army with extra bureaucracy to muddy the waters. I do remember reading articles about how Russia was providing them with new armored vehicles, artillery, etc, after the war to replace the materiel they lost though.

Not necessarily, Ukraine didn't have all that many TB2s in their inventory to begin with. They seem to be gearing up for some major offensive operations, which might require a greater amount of heavy firepower.

I suspect Armenian government officials will do their best to dissuade them from this because further associating with Russia at this point in time is suicide for Armenia.

I guess this is the advantage of using a fiber laser over a chemical one because of the higher density and absorption. Although I'm still a bit surprised it was fast enough to burn up a mortar round in mid-air.

"If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you. This is the principal difference between a dog and a man." - Mark Twain When the heck were Armenians bombed by Turkish jets? Are they still pushing that myth that Turkish F-16s bombed Armenian soldiers in Karabakh in...

LOL bullshit. Russian "peacekeepers" would love nothing more than get another mess in Karabakh started again to distract from their epic failure in Ukraine.

What place? All throwing a temper tantrum like that will result in is pissing away any goodwill that Turkey has attained over the past few weeks.

Don't be silly.

I don't think Turkey will be selling TB-2s to Serbia as long as it's connected to Russia and poses a threat to Bosnia. If it does for some unknown reason, it's probably going to be offset by giving even higher quality weapons and counter-measures to Bosnia. Or at least I'd think so.

Morons. But dangerous morons nonetheless.
