So in recent days besides the war in Ukraine we had tensions in Kosovo, Taiwan and Nagorno-Karabah. What's next?

Srsly tho my parents are both Georgian and I have so much love for the Caucasus and I don't even fully know what I think about this conflict but I hope people are safe and this gets resolved.

I feel bad for Armenia. I know some Georgians don't like them precisely for this, but the Armenians don't have any real allies and simply have to be in good relations with Russia for survival. This is one of the rarer instances when I support the same cause as the pro-Russians.

Azerbaijan has no excuse to push even further into Armenian-held lands after the ceasefire.

It does because it is technically and legally their land regardless of who inhabits the lands. 

Armenia also ethnically cleansed many regions of Azeris while they took control of Karabagh. I'm sorry but in this case Armenia is in the wrong. Is there a pressing NEED for Azerbaijan to enter the illegally occupied territories under Armenian control? No..and I wish they wouldnt do it but technically they can and are allowed to reclaim lost territory which is internationally regarded as being illegally occupied by Armenia. 

The wildest thing to me is that if it were simply Karabakh proper it would be kind of fine but Armenia legit snatched huge parts of Azerbaijan PROPER as well and occupied those lands for decades before finally getting kicked out last year (or two years ago). 

I feel bad for Armenia on sooo many levels (like Turkey not recognizing their genocide, being politically bullied by Turkey and Azerbaijan almost always etc..) but in terms of this territorial dispute they have been in the wrong and continue to be.

Taiwan is also legally part of China, this doesn't mean China is on the right to invade in any way. Military invasions are a thing of the past and should not be in any way be given the benefit of the doubt. Armenia occupies those regions since the 90s, if we use this logic many counties have the right to take up arms and start many other wars.

This week we had Russia-Ukraine, China-Taiwan, Serbia-Kosovo, Azerbaijan-Armenia.

Wondering what other diplomatic conflicts we'll have on the table tomorrow?
