/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Russia's role in Balkans as well as in Caucasus
is still great. However, Balkan policy has been dominating for a
long time, member of the Armenian National Assembly's committee on
European integration, political scientist Armen Ashotyan said in an
interview with PanARMENIAN.Net.
"Actually, we are witnessing the collapse of Russian diplomacy
in Balkans and Kosovo is the last spot where Russia can wield
influence. Russia claims renaissance of the superpower. Kosovo will
show whether this state is capable to rehabilitate. If it fails to
cut the South Caucasian knots with the Kosovo precedent, it will
certainly lose the status of a superpower," he said.
