A top U.S. intelligence official says the situation in the South
Caucasus and the Balkans continues to remain unstable.
Director of National Intelligence Dennis Blair said Tuesday fighting
could flare between Armenia and Azerbaijan over the disputed region
of Nagorno-Karabakh, reports The Associated Press.
Furthermore, Blair said that President Dmitry Medvedev's viewing of
Moscow's former Soviet neighbors as a "zone of privileged interests"
could undermine relations with Washington.
Blair also named unresolved ethnic tensions between Bosnia's Muslims
and Serbs as posing "the principal challenges" to European stability
in 2010. He said Kosovo also required ongoing attention.
