Azerbaijani political scientist: Russia keeps a waiting position around the Turkish-Armenian and Armenian-Azerbaijani relations

"I suppose that the complexity and some uncertainty of the Azerbaijani-Russian as well as the Russian-South Caucasus relations is connected with the historical fact that Russia has not yet gained the scales, weight and a status of the superpower Moscow is now striving for after escaping from the full collapse threatening to it", noted he.

According to him, Russia today is going through a transitive period, simultaneously gaining power.

"Therefore, in the current situation that established around the Turkish-Armenian and Armenian-Azerbaijani relations, Moscow keeps a waiting position and all its efforts are fixed in the formula, indicated by Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, who said Russia welcomes normalization of relations between Turkey and Armenia and between any other countries", noted he.

According to the political scientist Russia is trying to escape accusations of any special pressure, influence and so on.

"At the same time the United States stated in open and voiced their satisfaction with the recent events and with the fact that the developments have become real owing to Washington's efforts", said Aghayev.
