/PanARMENIAN.Net/ That Russia intensifies its geopolitical role on
global level, trying to recover its positions in CIS are real. The
country's attempts to make CSTO an active system are real too. But
as regards Russia Project, that's a fairytale, NAS Oriental Studies
Institute Director Ruben Safrastyan told a PanARMENIAN reporter. If
Russian President and Premier had such plans, no foreign newspaper
would be aware of it, Armenian expert finds.
Italian Limes magazine disseminated information on the so called
Russia Project allegedly elaborated by Mr. Putin and Medvedev. A
periodical specialized in geopolitics, the magazine reported that the
project aimed at re-annexing Transdniestria, South-Eastern Ukraine and
Kyrgyzstan to Russian Federation. The project proposes the idea of
creating a "Russian Union" with the involvement of Belarus, Central
Ukraine, Armenia, Nagorno Karabakh, Kazakhstan and Tajikistan. It
also envisages an agreement on a military union with Uzbekistan.
