Alexander Iskandaryan: Georgia takes cautious line on Russia’s military presence in region

PanARMENIAN.Net - Georgian authorities’ nervousness about Russia-related issues is not new to the region and quite understandable, Caucasus Institute director Alexander Iskandaryan stated.

In a conversation with PanARMENIAN.Net reporter, the expert commented on Georgian Foreign Ministry’s statement that Russian military base in Armenia poses a threat to the region.

“Georgia takes a cautious line on Russia’s military presence in the region, which is easily explained by a post –war syndrome. In reality, the military base has long been deployed in Armenia and is not meant for any actions against Georgia,” Iskandaryan concluded.
