/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "EU policy in South Caucasus has two criteria: first
EU policy in relation to South Caucasus, and second, elaboration
of a new regional policy in which EU will act as international
stake-holder after USSR collapse," IRIS Research Director Laura
Delacourt announced in an International Conference on "Observing
Security in South Caucasus: regional conflicts, stability and
transformation". "EU has never interfered in conflicts between South
Caucasian states and has never been an international stake-holder or
'leading actor'," Delacourt said, adding that the union's involvement
in conflict was inevitable after Russian-Georgian war.
"EU pursues two principles: first, building a national state and
second, creating an atmosphere of trust among all three states in the
region," she said, noting at the same time that Eastern Partnership
project is a good opportunity for separating South Caucasus from
Russia.
