Dubien: Russia to dominate France, U.S. in Karabakh process

PanARMENIAN.Net - The Director of the Institute of International and Strategic Relations (IRIS), Editor-in-Chief of Eurasia Intelligence Report, expert for Russia and post-Soviet countries Arnaud Dubien said that Russia will have greater influence than France and the U.S. in the Karabakh conflict settlement.

“Russia tries to carry out a parallel process. There is the OSCE Minsk Group’s format and there are separate negotiations led by Russian President Dmitry Medvedev with his Armenian and Azerbaijani counterparts Sargsyan and Aliyev. Anyway, it does not mean that Russia can solve all the matters itself and, in my opinion, Russia conceives it,” he said.
