11:41 ~U 03.07.13
Russia has no interest in a renewed war over Karabakh, Thomas de
Waal, a senior researcher at the Washington-based think tank Carnegie
Endowment, has said in a recent interview with CivilNet TV.
According to him, the country is more interested in a military balance
in Karabakh, not willing to take sides with any of the countries
involved in the conflict.
~SRussia certainly has no interest in a new war,~T he said, when
asked to comment on Russia~Rs large-scale weapons deal with Azerbaijan.
The expert attributed the fact to a commercialization of the country~Rs
foreign policy and an attempt to give Armenia a heavy hint that it
is now time for joining the Customs Union.
Thomas de Waal, who has authored books on Nagorno-Karabakh, said
Russia is more counting money than anything else, trying to expand
the Customs union to Ukraine by increasing the natural gas prices,
and using other forms of pressure.
