RUSSIA: Military bases in Caucasus on full combat alert
[link to www.thehindu.com]

Attack on Iran not far off, says Russian General

"Russia is concerned that a conflict in the Persian Gulf may spill over into the Caucasus.

The Russian General Staff has set up a “situation centre” to monitor developments in the Persian Gulf “in real time”, General Makarov said.

“We are analyzing the situation round-the-clock and do not rule out any options,” Russia’s highest ranking military officer said.

Russian media quoted defence sources as saying that Russian military bases in the Caucasus – in Armenia, South Ossetia and Abhazia, had been put on combat alert. Military experts speculate that the U.S. may carry out strikes at Iran from Turkey, and that Georgia and Azerbaijan may be also drawn into the conflict. Earlier this week Iran lodged formal protest with Azerbaijan over alleged Israeli spy activity in Azerbaijan.

To prepare for war contingency, Russian warships in the Black Sea have been deployed closer to Georgia, and the Caspian flotilla has been relocated from Astrakhan to ports closer to Azerbaijan, the Nezavisimaya Gazeta reported.

Annual war games in Russia’s North Caucasus this year will be scaled up from tactical/operational to strategic level, that is, will involve “Russia’s entire military setup,” according to media reports. The Russian Defence Ministry has announced plans to supply to the Southern Military District 40 new aircraft and to assign to it two special commando units.

Peeps, I know you are sick of hearing it, but it REALLY won't be long now. Full combat alert does not happen unless there is a reason.

Re: RUSSIA: Military bases in Caucasus on full combat alert
US will have to withdraw if there is a possibility of inclusion of Russia and China in war with Iran.Such a war will devastate the whole world.North Korea,Japan,Pakistan,Britain will be involved and many more.

World economy is based on cooperation of many different countries and these countries are distributed evenly in all parts of the world.Any kind of world war will be very devastating to economy.Will the countries of world cooperate again after the war? I don't think so.

What is UN doing to bring peace for which it was created?

good find OP

The upgrade to strategic level, involving “Russia’s entire military setup,” implies a nuclear posture...

This is where things start to get more interesting.
