Moscow and Tehran may recognize the Nagonro Karabakh Republic in
future, Stanislav Tarasov, director of Middle East-Caucasus research
center at the International Institute of the Newest States said at the
discussion in Moscow on Eurasian Prospect and Political, Humanitarian
and Economic Issues of "Unrecognized" States.
"The phenomenon of "two Armenias" may be accompanied with only serious
geopolitical changes in the so-called Big Middle East," he said.
Moreover, he did not exclude that the Armenian center will be moved
from Yerevan to Stepanakert.
"In my opinion, a Transcaucasian direction is being formed in the
foreign policy of Iran which in near future will surprise much," the
political analyst said, adding that only after it as well as only after
recognition of Transdniester it would have been expedient to revive
the Karabakh and Transdniester unification process in any alliance
of unrecognized states. He said there used to be such process in time.
"At that time Karabakh pulled out from the process but currently
positions may change as in case Russia recognizes Karabakh a
new Armenian center will be formed over it and new geopolitical
configuration will be created with Russia's presence," Tarasov said.
