Head of the Caucasus Department of the CIS Institute of Russia
Mikhail Alexandrov considers that the best way of resolving the
Karabakh conflict is the transfer of Georgian regions inhabited by
Azeris to Azerbaijan. Mikhail Alexandrov said this in an interview
with Strana.ru, Mediamax agency reports.
"Since there is a region in Georgia, mainly inhabited by Azeris, we
can think about transferring it to Azerbaijan. Instead, Azerbaijan will
refuse from Nagorno Karabakh. Such development of events is possible in
case of disintegration of the central authority of Georgia and collapse
of the country. It is not ruled out in the light of Saakashvili's
current policy. The policy of pressuring ethnic minorities,
confrontation with Russia, conservation of internal discrepancies
can lead to this kind of collapse. In this case the establishment of
peace in Georgia can become the priority of CIS peacekeeping forces,
and in the course of this action decisions will be taken on secession
of some regions of Georgia inhabited by ethnic minorities," Head of
the Caucasus Department of Russia's CIS Institute declared.
