/PanARMENIAN.Net/ For Europe and the U.S. the Near East is the
frontline while the South Caucasus is the rear that can be
strengthened, head of the International Relations Department at the
Institute of the Political and Military Analysis Sergey Markedonov
told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. In his words, no one wants war in the
region and Russia is not an exception. `Russia is not interested in
military operations in the region, since they’re pregnant with a great
number of problems: refugees and their settlement as well as
additional participation in peacekeeping operations. Those who think
that conflicts in the region are beneficial for Russia are wrong,’ the
Russian political scientist said.
At the same time he remarked that no changes occurred in the
arrangement of forces on the world arena. `Everything remained as it
was,’ he said.
