Russia shows more presence with training flights over Armenia, after deadly clashes occurred between Armenia and Azerbaijan over Nagorno-Karabakh dispute last week.<\/h1>\n

Baku \/ NationalTurk – Deadly clashes occurred between Azerbaijan and Armenia last week only a few days later Russian fighter planes conduct training flights over Armenian territory in an increasing number to intimidate.<\/p>\n

A Russian military spokesman, Col. Igor Gorbul stated that Russian fighter jets stationed at a base in Armenia have conducted about 300 training flights since the beginning of 2012, and have increased the number of flying hours by more than 20 % from 2011.<\/p>\n

Violence has flared recently along the border between Armenia and Azerbaijan, which have been at war over the disputed territory of Nagorno-Karabakh, an Armenian-controlled enclave inside Azerbaijan, for more than 20 years. At least eight soldiers, five Azerbaijanis and three Armenians, were killed in clashes along the border last week.<\/p>\n

This is seen as sending a clear warning that Russia could intervene at any moment should violence escalate further in the territorial dispute between Armenia and Azerbaijan, the NYT article states.<\/p>\n

Col. Gorbul said Russian fighter pilots were preparing for combat. ‘The main emphasis in performing aerobatic elements is made on the ability to apply them in real-life air combat conditions,’ he said.<\/p>\n

The Russian Foreign Ministry last week stated it regarded the border clashes between Armenia and Azarbaijan as ‘ unacceptable ‘ and would maintain all efforts to try to broker a peaceful settlement between two eternal enemies. Russia, along with France, the United States and other countries, has repeatedly urged a peaceful settlement to the Karabakh dispute between Armenia and Azerbaijan. Russia maintains a military base in Armenia and regularly sells weapons to Armenia. Both Armenia and Azerbaijan are former states of USSR.<\/p>\n

U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton last week warned of possible disastrous consequences after deadly violence between Azarbaijan and Armenia ignited over Karabakh.<\/p>\n

Azerbaijan, which currently holds a seat on the United Nations Security Council, issued a statement. Azerbaijan was also appealing to the United Nations for help in hopes that international mediators could help reach a settlement over Nagorno Karabakh Conflict\u00a0until the end of 2012.<\/p>\n\n
