Turkey has expressed extreme annoyance by the visit of US Secretary of State to Greece.

In particular, a spokesperson for Turkey’s ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) accused US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo of unilateralism and said his attitude is inelegant.

Ömer Çelik, the AKP spokesperson, even called on Pompeo to maintain a neutral stance because unilateral visits and statements give the wrong messages.

At the same time, he once again made provocative statements regarding Ankara’s intentions in Greek-Turkish issues in the East Mediterranean.

“Turkey is a country of diplomacy if they want to solve the problem with diplomacy, but if they do not want, we will solve it on the battlefield,” he said.

turkey has clearly become a hostile country, needs to be booted from nato and introduce crippling economic sanctions on them. these fxckers started a war in syria, libya, almost against greece if the french dont threated them and now armenia.

one miscalculation is enough and we can get into a war with russia over some turkish phony war. i say boot them and destroy them.

In that case there'd be no way to spot them from satellite since there'd be no way to differentiate from regular artillery.

The satellite thing indicates we're talking about large ballistic missiles - Iskander.
 Quoting: RomanianGuy


A satellite cannot distinguish between the 7 different types of warhead that an Iskander contains, nor can it determine whether it is fitted with a nuclear warhead.

Armenia has Iskanders. I don't know if they have nuclear warheads for any of them.

Azeri's may have Iskanders. IDK for sure.

That claim however appears to be bunk. Unsourced and vague.
 Quoting: the decider


Yes, of course, didn't say they could. And I don't think they have nuclear warheads. But Iskanders is probably what that source thought when they wrote "nuclear artillery shells".
 Quoting: RomanianGuy


The "source" claimed to be quoting an American intel community leak. That leak supposedly stated that US spy satelites detected nuclear artillery shells being moved.

If the American IC was going to leak intel, it would be specific. You wouldn't have to guess at what it "actually" meant to say. If the "source" can write in English, they can read English.

Taken at face value this leak LITERALLY says the US satellite picked up a shipment of nuclear artillery shells being moved.

They would be on their way to a location where they would be married to artillery pieces capable of firing them.

If they were nuclear warheads meant to be fitted to a balistic missle, that is what the leak would have said.
 Quoting: the decider


I saw no link so I didn't take the "source" seriously.
I thought no way they could spot a certain type of artillery shells unless that type alone is linked to a specific storage site or unit. But since when does Azerbaijan (I first saw it as "Armenia") has known nuclear capabilities?

Azerbaijan is a US puppet. Turkey is just playing along. Easy, considering they are basically the same people with a mutually intelligible language and are the invaders who misplaced lots of people off the Near East during the Dark Ages and didn't finish the job properly.

And by "nuclear artillery shells" whoever wrote that probably means the Iskander ballistic missiles.
 Quoting: RomanianGuy


In the case of former Soviet satellites it's actually far more likely to refer to nuclear artillery shells which the Russians made a fuckhuge amount of and everyone is pretty sure quite a few of went missing during the breakup of the Soviet Union.

 Quoting: RomanianGuy


You wouldn't be able to spot iskander nuclear payloads from COMMERCIAL SATELLITES either.

You don't think you need entire nuclear iskanders do you?

You don't, the payloads are swappable easily and quickly.

Beyond that, iskander is too new to have off the books nuclear payload modules that could have potentially been stolen, misplaced, or diverted for them.

Ergo, it can't be iskander payloads and even if it was an iskander payload it would be pretty close to the same size as a nuclear artillery shell. Not exactly the same size but within a standard deviation of sizes that would put them in the same detectability thresholds of any given satellite or satellites.

The actual payload part of tactical nuclear weapons is nowhere near as large as most people believe.

Honestly, that tweet doesn't do much for me since it would depend on big boy grade satellites to spot the size of packages we're discussing whether those who tweeted that know it or not.

it could be a possibility IF turkey wouldnt be almost at war with greece and france.

my theory is that there was a silent military coup in turkey and the de facto turkish leadership is doing these pointless wars.

other option is that erdogan uses these proxy wars as an excuse to give exercise for the military and decrease coup risk.

one thing is sure since the failed coup turkey have been getting involved in everything.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77733309


RUSSIA AND ARMENIA ARE BOUND AT THE HIP

Armenia and Russia are both members of a military alliance, the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO), along with four other ex-Soviet countries.

Military cooperation between Armenia and Russia is based on both states being members of (CSTO) as well as participants in the Joint CIS Air Defense System.

Russia maintains in Gyumri (formerly, Alexandropol), north of Yerevan, one of its military bases abroad (102nd Military Base) as part of Russia's Transcaucasian Group of Forces; the relevant treaty was extended until 2044 in 2010.[19] Moscow also undertook to supply Armenia with more weapons and military hardware.[20] On 8 December 2015, the Erebuni base (part of 102nd) was reinforced with six advanced Mi-24P assault helicopters and an Mi-8MT transport helicopter delivered from the Russian Air Force base in the Krasnodar region.[21][22]

The Russian border guards directorate in Armenia (c. 4,500 strong) along with the Armenian border guards is responsible for the protection of the Soviet-era border of Armenia with Turkey and Iran.[23]

In October 2013, the chief commander of Russia's 102nd military base Andrey Ruzinsky told Russia's official military newspaper, "If Azerbaijan decides to restore jurisdiction over Nagorno-Karabakh by force, the [Russian] military base may join in the armed conflict in accordance with the Russian Federation’s obligations within the framework of the Collective Security Treaty Organization
