Karabakh in the geopolitics of the leading countries

Abstract

      The " separation" of the seemingly "allies" of Russia and Armenia is a matter of actual decision. This is most eloquently demonstrated by the way in which Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinian has been behaving during the current traditional summit of the CIS heads of state in St Petersburg. It is obvious that the expected meeting of Vladimir Putin, Ilham Aliyev and Nikol Pashinyan in a tripartite format within the framework of this summit did not take place precisely because of Pashinyan's position. Pashinyan has finally bet on the West to mediate with Azerbaijan. Prior to this Nikol Pashinyan accused the Russian troops stationed in Karabakh as peacekeepers of "inaction".
