    SERGEY IVANOV: RUSSIA NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR CONFLICTS ON POST-SOVIET SPACE

    Public Radio, Armenia
    Oct 11 2006

    Russia carries no responsibility for the frozen conflicts on
    post-Soviet space, RF Deputy Premier, Defense Minister Sergey
    Ivanov told the journalists. "As for the conflicts on the territory
    of the former USSR, we have not initiated these and we carry no
    responsibility, we are the guarantor of settlement," said Ivanov in
    response to the question whether Russia may recognize the independence
    of Abkhazia and South Ossetia because of the strained relations
    with Georgia.

    "It means that the two parties of the conflict, e.g. Moldova and
    Transniestria, Armenia and Azerbaijan, Georgia and Abkhazia, Georgia
    and Abkhazia, Georgia and South Ossetia, should somehow speak to each
    other," RF Deputy Prime Minister noted. He said that the process is
    different in case of different conflicts. Ivanov remarked that the
    existence of frozen conflicts on former USSR territory is the result
    of collapse of the Soviet Union.
