Armenia russia conflict: There was a time when Armenia used to walk blindly at every behest of Russia. For decades, Putin’s trusted younger brother, he has now rescued his hand and merged into the west arms. Armenia did what Russia had never imagined, joined hands with America, Europe and Türkiye, and Putin just kept watching. This is not just diplomacy, but a thick nail in the coffin of Russian dominance.
Armenia broke confidence
In September 2023, Azerbaijan captured Nagorno-Karabakh in a shock. This is the same area for which Armenia and Azerbaijan have fought four wars, and every time Russia was controlled as a punch. But this time no Russian aircraft, any statement and no broker appeared. The entire area of Karabakh went to Azerbaijan’s hand and Armenians depended on Russia’s strategic safety guarantee stood with hand and broken confidence. On this day, Armenia decided in mind that now has come to get out of the shadow of Russia.
Conspiracy and deep conspiracy of Russia
Russia did every trick to draw Armenia back into its camp. Pressure was created through the church, from billionaires of Russian origin to opposition leaders. In February 2025, a conspiracy of an alleged coup was caught in Jerwan in which the role of Russia’s friendlys was revealed. Prime Minister Nicole Pasinayan directly pointed without naming that all Russia can be a game of pro -Russia forces. His clear message was that Armenia is no longer afraid of any foreign pressure, even if he comes from Moscow.
Parliament made historical decision
In the beginning of 2025, Armenia’s Parliament passed a bill that shook the entire Eurasia politics. Armenia has now entered the process of formally connecting the European Union. Although NATO is not yet a matter of membership, it is not less than any nuclear explosion for Putin. Another country is also coming out so close from his influence area. This incident is a more personal shock than Ukraine.
Friendship with enemies, bypassing Russia
Türkiye, which had a 100 -year -old enmity, which had a bruised relationship with the Karabakh issue, Armenia is now ready to join hands with the same Türkiye. Recently, the meeting of Erdoan and Pashinayan laid the foundation of new business and border agreements. And in this whole process… Russia is absent. No Russian representative, no peace proposal, no intervention. For Putin, it is an indication that Armenia no longer wants to be part of the post-sove space, but has entered the post-Putin era.
Open performance of Putin’s weakness
When Russia is entangled in Ukraine, its army is struggling with Western sanctions, and when the domestic opposition is raising heads, another front is broken. Armenia’s move is not just a geographical change, but is a symbol of Russia’s declining strength. It also indicates all the small countries that were still silent due to the fear of Putin that Moscow is no longer a elder brother, but has become a stale promise.
Historical Iqrar in Abu Dhabi
The biggest shock was yet to come. Azerbaijan and Armenia first met in Abu Dhabi for peace talks without Russia’s mediation. At the initiative of Europe and Gulf countries, both enemy countries joined hands on the conversation table. This was the scene in which Russia’s absence was the most shining. Putin, who used to use this struggle to maintain his grip for decades, is now completely missing from this story.
The younger brother has now come down on a rebellion
Pashinyaan, by avoiding Russia, the trap of friendship with opposing camps like Europe, America and Türkiye is a new turn of history. And this is not just the story of Armenia, but the first major rift of the shattered empire of Russia. At one time, these countries, which were part of the Soviet Union at one time, are now looking towards the new world from the shadow of Moscow. And Putin … They only stared at the old maps. His younger brother became his biggest opponent in front of Putin’s eyes and now no one can stop him.
