In 2015 Russia-the West confrontation will go on affecting post-Soviet
countries, Srtarfor forecasts.
"In the Caucasus, Georgia will see an increase in political instability
as the ruling Georgian Dream party experiences greater internal
divisions, though this will not offset the country's broader EU and
NATO integration drive. With Russia more focused on domestic and
economic issues and thus less likely to intervene in skirmishes over
Nagorno-Karabakh, Azerbaijan will try to challenge the status quo of
its conflict with Armenia with more military activity on the front
line. Although increased hostilities on the border can be expected, a
full-scale military conflict drawing in larger neighbors is unlikely",
- Stratfor says.
