ArmInfo. The recognition of the independence of Abkhazia and South
Ossetia by Russia has become one more warning for the United States,
says Armenian political expert Sergey Shakaryants.

It was the second step of Russia. The first step was Medvedev’s
statement that Russia was ready to halt its relations with NATO.

Russia has made it clear to the US that it would not admit any
encroachment on its interests in the South Caucasus and the whole
world.

"Presently, NATO sea forces are moving towards Russia’s best military
ships in the Black Sea and I hope that both sides will show enough
good sense to prevent new deplorable consequences of the unwise policy
of the Georgian authorities," says Shakaryants.

To note, President of Russia Dmitry Medvedev has signed decrees on
the recognition of the independence of Abkhazia and South Ossetia.
