There is a definite uncertainty in the development of relations
between Moscow and South Caucasus, political scientist Rasim Aghayev
said at the round table "Baku-Moscow have checked time" by results
of the visit of President Ilham Aliyev to Moscow Thursday.
"I suppose that the complexity and some uncertainty of the
Azerbaijani-Russian as well as the Russian-South Caucasus relations is
connected with the historical fact that Russia has not yet gained the
scales, weight and a status of the superpower Moscow is now striving
for after escaping from the full collapse threatening to it", noted he.
According to him, Russia today is going through a transitive period,
simultaneously gaining power.
"Therefore, in the current situation that established around the
Turkish-Armenian and Armenian-Azerbaijani relations, Moscow keeps
a waiting position and all its efforts are fixed in the formula,
indicated by Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, who said Russia
welcomes normalization of relations between Turkey and Armenia and
between any other countries", noted he.
According to the political scientist Russia is trying to escape
accusations of any special pressure, influence and so on.
"At the same time the United States stated in open and voiced
their satisfaction with the recent events and with the fact that
the developments have become real owing to Washington's efforts",
said Aghayev.
