In Goris I am seeing EU observers preparing for a mission, an ICRC car returning from one, an Unicef office in the backround, simultaneously as I speak to Marut Vanyan on the phone.
I watch them all work while Marut says he hasn't found new food for days. #Caucasus #Artsakh #NagornoKarabakh #NagornyKarabakh #ethniccleasing #war ? And the United States does ... what exactly? Express "deep concern"?

Nagorno-Karabakh’s Parliament has elected Samvel Shahramanyan as the region’s new president. Officials have expressed hope that he will be able to achieve a ‘breakthrough’ in the region’s negotiations with #Azerbaijan, which has held Nagorno-Karabakh under blockade for over nine months.

Chechen singer Zelimkhan Bakayev, who went missing in 2017, was killed on Ramzan Kadyrov's orders after prolonged torture, says SC SOS
The singer, who flew to Grozny from Moscow, disappeared on August 8, 2017, his disappearance caused a wide resonance, but the republic's authorities refused to investigate the incident, and Ramzan Kadyrov tried to blame his relatives for the singer's murder.
Journalists had previously speculated that the murder could have been related to Bakayev's homosexuality; now human rights activists from the IC SOS have confirmed this version.

From the UK defence ministry's def intel update on #Ukraine this morning:
"Military formations drawn from across #Russia are currently bearing the brunt of Ukraine’s counter offensive. In #Zaporizhzhia Oblast, the 58th Combined Arms Army is defending heavily entrenched lines; normally it secures Russia’s volatile #Caucasus region. Around Velyka #Novosilka, the 5th Combined Arms Army and Naval Infantry hold the front; they are routinely based 7000km away as a balance to Chinese power." (Cont.)

"In the #Caucasus, geopolitics, economics and security concerns trump religion as the key factors shaping state policies." https://www.clingendael.org/pub/2023/the-eu-in-the-south-caucasus/1-the-geopolitical-gordian-knot-of-the-south-caucasus/#dynamic-3-imported-geopolitical-tensions-from-the-middle-east
Fascinating survey, showing that oppositional political engagement (both before and after fleeing Russia) is significantly higher among Russian emigres in Armenia than Georgia.
