“Russia has to reconsider its attitude towards USA interests in Caspian region,” an expert at Political and Military Analysis Institute, Anatoli Tsiganok stated. “The issue should be considered from geopolitical viewpoint. If US officials state that Americans are interested in the region, one should understand that their economic goals are connected with military actions which they’re promoting to strengthen their presence in the region. The fact that Americans agreed to use radar in Azerbaijan, is rather demonstrative. USA might not use it against Russia, but still, the message is evident: USA’s presence in Caucasus is highly undesirable for Russia – one has only to remember recent events in Georgia,” Pravda.ru cited Tsiganok as saying.
