On March 2017, Russia’s Approach to Cyber Warfare, written by Michael Connell and Sarah Vogler published in the website of a company called "CNA Analysis & Solution"( "www.cna.org"), which is located in the Clarendon community of Arlington,Virginia. This company has nearly 75 years of experience researching and analyzing the complex scientific, operational, and policy challenges facing government decision makers.
The authors, Connell and Vogler, in their CNA's article titled "Russia’s Approach to Cyber Warfare" address, "Russia views cyber very differently than its western counterparts, from the way Russian theorists define cyberwarfare to how the Kremlin employs its cyber capabilities.

The authors go on, "Russian military theorists generally do not use the terms cyber or cyberwarfare. Instead, they conceptualize cyber operations within the broader framework of information warfare, a holistic concept that includes computer network operations, electronic warfare, psychological operations, and information operations."
They include, "Offensive cyber is playing a greater role in conventional Russian military operations and may potentially play a role in the future in Russia's strategic deterrence framework... The Georgia and Ukraine conflicts also provided opportunities for Russia to
refine their cyberwarfare techniques and procedures and to demonstrate their capabilities on the world stage. These demonstrations may later serve as a basis to signal or deter Russia's adversaries."

On 19 july 2017, the website "MEDUZA.IO" published an article titled "Moscow's cyber-defense How the Russian government plans to protect the country from the coming cyberwar" in which the readers are informed: "Allegations that Russian hackers stole emails from top Democrats in the United States, in an effort to influence the results of America’s presidential election, are now more than a year old."

The 2017 article in the website "MEDUZA.IO" includes, "Last November, Meduza published a detailed look at the operations of Russia’s cyber-soldiers. But a country’s cybersecurity is only as good as its cyber-defense, which is why Meduza’s special correspondent Daniil Turovsky returned to the subject, interviewing dozens of cybersecurity experts and studying different documents and reports, in order to learn what cyberthreats most concern the Russian government, and what Moscow is doing to protect the country."
According to the article in the "MEDUZA.COM", "In July 2016, Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB) announced that it had discovered several Trojan horses in the IT infrastructure of Russia’s state, scientific, and defense institutions (in total, about two dozen enterprises). The agency indicated that the attack was planned carefully and carried out by trained professionals."

The 2017 article in the MEDUZA.COM informs, "On June 23, 2017, The Washington Post reported that Barack Obama, when he was still president, ordered the U.S. National Security Agency to develop cyber-weapons against Russia as a response to Moscow’s supposed interference in the U.S. presidential race. The special operation reportedly entailed the placement of “implants” in Russia’s electronic infrastructure that could be triggered when needed to disable Russia’s systems."
The political tugs of cyber wars have the desires to initiate the environment for military confrontations between the nations in order to dominate the world. The parades which features tanks and rolling down on the streets do not saturate the thirst of the tugs of cyber wars.
The presidents' desires for a military parades do not make the military industrial complex satisfied and wealthy for the era of Big Data and A.I. The initiation of World War III requires to invest on these 2 fronts: China’s Cyber Espionage and Russia's Cyber Espionage.

Kamal Makili-Aliyev:
"Karabakh is not disputed, it is occupied"
December 19, 2018
The leaders of the Republic of Armenia deserve a Noble Prize for their "CHARLATANISM". The United Nations and all world communities recognize that Nagrono Karbakh of Azerbaijan and the seven surrounding regions have been “occupied” by the Republic of Armenia, a client state of Russia, as the result of Imperial Russia's proxy war against Azerbaijan in the South Caucasus.
George Herbert Walker Bush, then the US president and many members of the US congress supported the occupation of the territories of Azerbaijan at dawn of its independence.
On May 16, 2016,
Kamal Makili-Aliyev (LL.D.), is Programme Officer at Raoul Wallenberg Institute of Human Rights and Humanitarian Law. published an article in the website of "nationalinterest.org" titled "Nagorno-Karabakh Isn't Disputed Territory—It's Occupied".[1]
The author, Makili-Aliyev, in his article noted, "It's actually very simple. Contrary to the statements made in the mass media when it covers the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, this mountainous region of Azerbaijan is not disputed in any way; it is occupied." [1]
The author added, "So says the international judicial body the European Court of Human Rights. Despite the allegations of Armenia (that have in fact occupied sovereign territory of Azerbaijan) that the remaining ethnically Armenian population of the region has exercised the right to self-determination, it has been proven false again and again." [1]
The writer continued, " For once, Armenians living in Nagorno-Karabakh are not "people" in the sense of rights that are provided by a UN Charter." [1]
The author went on, "Armenians have already exercised that right in Armenia, where they have an internationally recognized state. Thus, making them a national minority on the territory of Azerbaijan and not "Nagorno-Karabakh people". Otherwise, Armenians would have a right to self-determination in U.S., Russia, France and other countries where they have large communities, creating a horde of small states. This is simply illogical." [1]
Makili-Aliyev, who holds a PhD and is expert on issues in the South Caucasus, also addressed that no state, including Armenia, has recognized the separatist entity in Nagorno-Karabakh, nor has Armenia laid claim to it. So there is no dispute on the attribution of the region, and the European Court of Human Rights has actually incorporated these facts into international jurisprudence. [1]
Rabbi Israel Barouk:
"In Cultural Cleansing,
ISIS is Not Alone"
The writer of the article, Makili-Aliyev also included the following remarks, "...The Court recognizes Armenian military and financial control over so-called "Nagorno-Karabakh Republic" and comes to the opinion that Armenia has “effective control” in Nagorno-Karabakh. Thus, Armenia have been found in violation of the corresponding articles in the aforementioned case, due to the effective control it has over Nagorno-Karabakh." [1]
The author of the article emphasized that the rights of the Armenian minority to culture, language and religion can be guaranteed without violation of Azerbaijan's territorial integrity. Armenians can be equal citizens of Azerbaijan enjoying minority rights and enjoy autonomy.[1]
The Political Affairs Committee of
the Parliamentary Assembly of
the Council of Europe (PACE):
has called for “the withdrawal of
Armenian armed forces
and other irregular
armed forces
from Nagorno-Karabakh and
the other occupied territories of
Azerbaijan
The author, Kamal Makili-Aliyev, Doctor Habilitatus / LL.D.(Legum Doctor) in International and Constitutional Law, is a Scholar/Analyst and an independent expert in international law, conflicts, security and defense in his current article pointed out an important issue that mass media is somehow twisting the real discourse and disregarding all of the international legal data on the subject in an attempt to be "neutral" when reporting on the conflict. However, neutrality does not necessarily mean objectivity.[1]
This expert in the South Caucasus raised this question: "If the mass media continues to shape its "neutral" discourse and does not lean on the facts, it will only embolden the Armenia's position of staying on their grounds of occupation and preservation of status quo. This destructive stance on violence as opposed to the compromise would allow Armenia to ensure the rights of its minority in Azerbaijan as true caring kin-state." [1]
On , 8. Nov 2013, Alexandros Petersen (was killed in Afghanistan) published an article in THE EURO OBSERVER titled "Russia shows its hand on Karabakh" in which he noted, "Unlike with Georgia's separatist territories where Russian leaders had to concoct the bizarre pretext that their armed forces were defending two minuscule independent statelets, over Nagorno-Karabakh, Moscow can just invoke its mutual defense pact with Armenia and its CSTO obligations." [2]
The author, who lost his life in Afgahnistan's war added, "Moscow's shot over the bow to Azerbaijan and the region is an ominous reminder of the catastrophe that can befall the Caucasus if conflict settlement is not soon achieved." [2]
The writer went on, "Russia cannot simultaneously preach peace and threaten war." [2]
The author pointed out that Russia's revealing its bias on the Karabakh conflict also draws into serious question its role as a co-chair of the so-called Minsk Group, the OSCE conflict negotiation mechanism also chaired by France and the United States.[2]
In his article he informed his readers, "In the eyes of the international community, Russian forces supposedly defending Armenia - even though a conflict would probably be centered on the internationally recognized Azerbaijani territory of Karabakh - would be seen as much more legitimate than an intervention in Georgia." [2]
The author included the following words, "The 102nd Military Base maintains 5000 troops at Gyumri, armed with tanks, artillery, helicopters, MiG-29 aircraft and Iskender-M tactical ballistic missiles." [2]
