he Armenian-Russian alliance is gaining strength

The buildup in Armenia has been glossed over in Washington, despite being a key piece of Vladimir Putins plan to dominate the region along with its proxy Syria and growing military ties with Iran. Most importantly, Armenia shares an approximately 165 mile border with Turkey, a NATO member and the alliances southern flank.
The Armenian-Russian alliance is gaining strength. Armenia currently hosts an estimated 5,000 Russian military personnel and two Russian bases. In 2010, both countries signed an agreement that extended Russias basing rights in Armenia by 24 years, until 2044, and committed Moscow to supply the Armenian armed forces with modern and compatible weaponry and special military hardware, according to Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan. The 102nd Military Base in Gyumri, Armenia nearly 120 kilometers from the capital (and less than 10 kilometers from the Turkish border) has become a crucial Russian beachhead.

This is an interesting development, perhaps its time to repay the Turkish Barbarians for the genocide against the Armenians, and their arrogant behavior toward Russia.
