“I claim: for Putin that Armenians, that Azerbaijanis … he treats them as some people of the second, third, tenth grade. He believes that he believes that [премьер Армении Никол] Pashinyan and [президент Азербайджана Ильхам] Aliyev is the allied secretaries of the republican party committees. “You can share the territory, but still the” Horde table “here. You must come here and the label for reign from me to receive.” And this does not happen in fact. The regional status of Moscow as a hegemon is not so thin, it has loosened to such an extent that already in other places [страны региона] They are looking for security, protection, and economies. Of course, the war in Ukraine led to this. But all these events indicate that Moscow has such an attitude not only to Ukraine, not only to Belarus, Moldova and Georgia. Both Azerbaijan and Armenia are on this list. [Для Путина] These are all “temporarily broken allied republics, which sooner or later need to be returned”, and not build equal, respectful relations, ”said Feigin.
