"If Georgian-Ossetian and Georgian-Abkhaz conflicts escalate, it will
reflect in the whole Southern and Northern Caucasus," Director of the
Center for Military and Political Forecasting Anatoly Tsyganok stated
on July 25, 2006 during 'Russia and Georgia: Variants of Way out from
Deadlock' press conference in Moscow, a REGNUM correspondent informs.
"Even if presidents of Chechnya, Ingushetia, Kabardino-Balkariya, and
other Caucasian republics call on their people not to participate in
these conflicts, it does not mean that some representatives of these
peoples will not participate in them," Mr. Tsyganok believes. "It is
Caucasus - they have relatives everywhere," he added.
According to Mr. Tsyganok, Russia does not wish these conflicts'
escalation. "If Russia fails to agree with Georgia, it will deploy
its air-defense systems in the Armenian territory, strengthening and
securing its borders in such way," he believes.
