126 - Armenia’s Changing Relationship with Russia
Manage episode 446623941 series 2639107
The evolving relationship between Armenia and Russia has seen dramatic shifts in recent years, particularly in the wake of Armenia's devastating defeat in the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh war. Once heavily reliant on Russian military support, Armenia now finds itself questioning the reliability of this partnership. As Russia grapples with its own military commitments in Ukraine and its shrinking influence in the South Caucasus, Armenia has begun to explore alternative alliances, deepening ties with countries like France and India. But with Russian troops still stationed in Armenia and economic dependencies persisting, can Armenia truly pivot away from Moscow's orbit? We ask our panel of experts about the complexities of Armenia's balancing act between historical alliances and new geopolitical realities.
On the panel this week:
- Oleysa Vartanyan (Caucasus Analyst)
- Laurence Broers (Chatham House)
- Thomas De Waal (Carnegie Europe)
Intro - 00:00
PART I - 05:24
PART II - 27:36
PART III - 58:08
Outro - 1:21:38
