Azerbaijan and Armenia Should Not Trust Russia: Oligarch Berezovsky

Azerbaijan and Armenia Should Not Trust Russia: Former Russian
Oligarch Berezovsky

15:47 – 13.03.10

Former Russian oligarch Boris Berezovsky told RFE/RL’s Azerbaijani
Service that Armenia and Azerbaijan should not look to Moscow to help
solve the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.

Berezovsky, who lives in self-imposed exile in Britain, said Russia
will always impede efforts to resolve the conflict.

"It is in Russia’s interest to make the conflict even more complicated
in order to divide and conquer," he said.

Berezovsky said Russia’s current leaders are neither experienced nor
adequately educated. He said their primary interest is to exploit the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict to make money.

Berezovsky, 64, added that the strategic interests of post-Soviet
countries and Russia diverge. He said nobody will help the post-Soviet
Eurasian states stand up to Russia’s expansion and domination so they
must rely on their own efforts.

Berezovsky said Western countries are mainly concerned with their own
short-term interests. He said for that reason people in the former
Soviet republics should be politically active and ready to fight for
their freedoms every day.
