Georgia and Azerbaijan help Damascus?
Report of the human rights organization Human Rights First: "Accomplices to Syrian conflict" sheds light on the international players involved in this war.
Private companies of Georgia and Lebanon provide Syria with diesel fuel, according to the document.
Small vessels with a cargo of fuel on board are sent to Syria also from the territory of Georgia.
U.S. is taking diplomatic and political steps to persuade the Lebanese and the Georgian government to investigate and stop such activities, reported Eurasianet.
Azerbaijan allows Russia to use its airspace to transport weapons and money to Syria.
Russia is trying to supply military equipment and other supplies to Syria by air from Moscow to Damascus via Azerbaijan, Iran and Iraq. The flight documentation shows that in November and December 2012, Russia tried to hold four separate flights, sending to Syria refurbished combat helicopters Mi-24.
Also by air via Azerbaijan, Iran and Iraq, Moscow tries to send the Syrian regime freshly printed banknotes. According to the flight records found by the organization ProPublica, Russia also transports to Syria banknotes by airplane from Moscow to Damascus in a roundabout way through Azerbaijan, Iran and Iraq.
Curiously, Azerbaijan in this case allows itself to be used for the purpose of Russia, which is banned by the "big brother" - Turkey. We wonder whether the issue was raised by the Turkish authorities in their negotiations with Azerbaijan. But this is certainly the case that Azerbaijan has no way to resist Russia, even if wanted to, said Eurasianet. -02D-
