ArmInfo. "Now it is simply senseless to speak of any conflict military
settlement in the South Caucasus. This may be talked about but it is
simply turning into an anecdote", Director of the Caucasus Institute
Alexander Iskandaryan said in his report at an international conference
"Transcaucasia: new realities, changes, prospects" held in Yerevan,
Monday.
"Armenia's positions in the Caucasian region have slightly strengthened
after the crisis in August, however, this strengthening is purely
contextual, and time will show the further developments.
Moreover, the process of the South Caucasus region reformatting,
which started after the events in August and Russia's recognition of
independence of Abkhazia and South Ossetiam, has not been over yet",
Iskandaryan said. In this context, he stressed the significance of
issues related to the future of the elite in the states recognized by
Russia, use of financial flows to these states, demographic issues,
as well as Russia's rivalry with the West in the region.
