EGF Affiliated Expert Benyamin POGHOSYAN was extensively quoted in a recent article in “Newsweek”. For example, “For Russia, there is a desire “to keep its role as the primary player, viewing growing Western influence with suspicion," while the U.S. "is interested to push forward the Armenia-Azerbaijan peace process and Armenia-Turkey normalization efforts, hoping that it would open the way to push out Russian peacekeepers from Nagorno Karabakh after November 2025, and potentially, to remove the Russian military base and border troops from Armenia in longer perspective” according to Poghosyan.

EGF Affiliated Expert Benyamin POGHOSYAN has published a new article with the Armenian Weekly on “Iran’s Policy and Messaging of the West in the South Caucasus”. He concluded that: “If the West is unable or disinterested in convincing Azerbaijan to accept Western presence in Nagorno Karabakh to secure the fundamental rights of Armenians, when or if Russian peacekeepers leave, and it is unable to push Azerbaijan to move its troops out of occupied Armenian territories, all calls to Armenia not to have even minimal military cooperation with Iran would receive at least mixed perceptions in Armenia. That being said, Armenia should deepen its cooperation with Tehran, as Iran continues to counter Azerbaijan. READ MORE

EGF Affiliated Expert Benyamin POGHOSYAN has published a new article on commonspace.eu on “An international presence in Nagorno-Karabakh will be required for a considerable time”. He concluded that: “Currently, the only viable alternative to the geopolitical battles accompanying every extension of the Russian peacekeepers' mandate in Nagorno Karabakh is the possible deployment of an EU mission in Nagorno Karabakh. The EU mission does not require UN SC or OSCE approval. It needs only agreement from Armenia and Azerbaijan and the decision of the European Council. READ MORE

He concluded: “[…] substantial reforms in Azerbaijan will take years, if not decades, to transform the country and bring it closer to basic democratic standards. Until this happens, the only option to prevent the hard or soft ethnic cleansing of Armenians living in Nagorno Karabakh is the solid and permanent international presence in Nagorno-Karabakh.” READ MORE

EGF Affiliated Expert Benyamin POGHOSYAN published a new article on “What Next for Karabakh after the Munich Security Conference” with The Armenian Mirror Spectator. He concluded: “Instead of convincing Armenia to accept Azerbaijani maximalist demands, the international community should focus on preventing the outbreak of large-scale hostilities. In this context, the emphasis should be on confidence-building measures, including the creation of the Incident Prevention and Response Mechanism, similar to the mechanism created after the 2008 Russia – Georgia war”.

He concluded: “There are no straightforward ways to overcome Azerbaijani objections [to a peacekeeping mission in Nagorno-Karabakh beyond 2025]. However, starting this complicated and tricky path with no guaranteed success is better than pursuing the wait-and-see strategy, hoping that Russia will not be weakened too much by the war in Ukraine and Azerbaijan will not be able to push Russians out of Nagorno Karabakh after November 2025.” READ MORE

He concluded: “Iran currently pursues a status quo policy rather than revisionist ambitions. Tehran is interested in keeping the current balance of power, where Russia is an influential player through its military presence in Armenia and the deployment of Russian peacekeepers in Nagorno Karabakh. Iran would like to restrict the involvement of other actors in the region, in particular Israel and the US.” READ MORE

He concluded: “Thus, the current approaches of the main actors involved in the settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict do not create the necessary conditions to force Azerbaijan to end the blockade. […] The only factor that may undermine Azerbaijan’s strategic goal to push out as many Armenians from Karabakh as possible is the determination of local Armenians to stay strong in their homeland.“ READ MORE

The author thought that if Russian tanks that would likely attack Ukraine across the border with Belarus were accompanied by Belarusian troops this might be a heavy blow for the defenders of Ukraine, as well as for the Belarusians themselves. For the latter it might prove that their Lukashenko, who was "brought on his knees" by his desire to keep his presidential chair with Putin’s aid, succeeded in dividing the centuries-old friendship of the Ukrainian and Belarusian nations.

He concluded that: “[…] Azerbaijan is on a clear path toward a new military escalation. In the current situation, one of the tangible tools to prevent Azerbaijan from sowing further instability in the region is the extension of the EU monitoring capacity in Armenia beyond 2022 and further discussions about the potential deployment of other monitoring missions (Collective Security Treaty Organization, Organization of Security and Cooperation in Europe), along the Armenian–Azerbaijani border.” READ MORE

EGF Head of Research, Dr. George Vlad NICULESCU, co-edited a new volume on “Understanding Contemporary Information Landscape Handbook (UCIL)”
EGF Head of Research, Dr. George Vlad NICULESCU, co-edited a new volume on “Understanding Contemporary Information Landscape Handbook (UCIL)” with the Austrian National Defence Academy and the PfP Consortium of Defence Academies and Security Studies Institutes: “The idea of this Handbook sprang forth from a policy recommendation issued at a past Regional Stability in the South Caucasus Study Group (RSSC SG) workshop: “Create, with the assistance of PfP Consortium volunteers, a Reference Curriculum on Media Literacy, emphasizing the impact of modern communication techniques and social media on human biology, psychology and behaviour. The aim would be to raise awareness of the media as a tool of hybrid warfare, and how to build resilience to it at individual level.” Looking with an academic eye at the final product of our last three years of work I’d conclude that this Handbook is a great success as a valuable education tool for students and teachers in media studies, politics, international relations.

EGF Affiliated Expert Benyamin POGHOSYAN published a new article with the Armenian Mirror Spectator
EGF Affiliated Expert Benyamin POGHOSYAN published a new article with the Armenian Mirror Spectator on: “The Prague Statement: Implications and Possible Developments”: “ Many in Nagorno-Karabakh believe that an Armenia–Azerbaijan peace treaty will have no concrete implications for them. The Nagorno-Karabakh Republic authorities will state that regardless of what the Armenian government thinks, they will never be a part of Azerbaijan and will never take Azerbaijani passports. According to this narrative, as long as Russian peacekeepers are deployed in Karabakh, Azerbaijan will not have the capacity to invade or use troops to force Karabakh Armenians to accept Azerbaijani passports or to leave. This logic has some right to exist. However, it might not function by the end of 2025. After a Armenia–Azerbaijan peace treaty with no mention of Nagorno-Karabakh, it will be difficult for Russians to justify their presence in Karabakh.” READ MORE

[…] The contradicting statements and actions by the Armenian government and the lack of clarity about the government’s strategy toward the future of Nagorno Karabakh create confusion among Armenian partners and allies. This confusion only strengthens Azerbaijani positions in the region and makes Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh more vulnerable to blackmail. READ MORE

Dr. George Vlad Niculescu responded recently a query on the prospects for Russian peacekeepers leave Karabakh after the expiration of their mandate
EGF Head of Research, Dr. George Vlad Niculescu, responded recently a query from an Azerbaijani journalist on the prospects for Russian peacekeepers leave Karabakh after the expiration of their mandate. He concluded that peace in Karabakh was rather hanging on the broader balance of power between Russia and Turkey, and it was becoming increasingly entangled with the ongoing Russia-West geopolitical confrontation. In such circumstances, Russian peacekeepers might need to stay in Karabakh beyond November 2025, as a key element of maintaining the local balance of power, and implicitly preserving regional stability and peace in the South Caucasus.

He concluded that: "For its part, in order to prevent any kind of cooperation between Russia and China, the West must maximize its relations with China and pursue a policy of "soft power." For example, Washington should resume talks with Beijing on reducing or abolishing tariffs on various types of Chinese products imported into the US, while the EU should facilitate the implementation of the One Belt-One Road and TRACECA projects as soon as possible".

He concluded that: “As a result of the export of energy resources, Russia manages to attract the financial resources that it uses for further military purposes.

Is it part of the emerging Russian pole or not? Turkey will not be able to continue its current “cooperative competition” with Russia. Georgia will not join the “Russian pole” as an absolute majority of Georgian society views Russia as an enemy and occupying force.”

However, it is important to understand that serious disagreements continue between the two sides. Those disagreements are about future status of Nagorno-Karabakh, direct intervention of Turkey to Nagorno-Karabakh war of 2020, and emphasis of Turkey to the establishment of “Zangezur Corridor”. However, despite of those disagreements, the two countries should make a process of establishing diplomatic relations, and Turkey should remove the blockade of Armenia. Diplomatic relations between the two countries may help solving the issues mentioned before. READ MORE

A second group believes direct dialogue between Armenia and Turkey, not through mediators, is necessary to resolve outstanding issues, but they still harbour hostility toward Turkey for its support to Azerbaijan. The third group supports Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan’s views on relations with Turkey.

EGF Affiliated Expert Benyamin Poghosyan has published a new comment on “Biden's G-moment should not be interpreted as a shift in US policy towards the South Caucasus” for Commonspace.eu. He argued that although president Biden's use of the word "genocide" was a significant moral victory for the Armenian people, the geostrategic implications for the South Caucasus should not be exaggerated. In the complex web of current US-Turkey relations, this is only one of the available tools, and points of contention. It will not ruin bilateral relations between the US and Turkey, but it will make president Erdogan's domestic agenda more problematic. READ MORE.
