Russia is not aware which policy it conducts in the Caucasus, while the West has done an open attempt to take the Caucasus away from Russia", said Mubariz Ahmedoghlu, head of the center of political innovations and technologies at a press conference by results of September.

"West wishes to drive Russia out of the Caucasus forever", said Ahmedoghlu.

He considers that religion also interferes with the political issue. The political scientist considers that the goal is to drive Orthodox Christians out of the region.

"West wants only Catholicism to be present in the Caucasus", said the political scientist. As for the financial losses after the war between Russia and Georgia, Ahmedoghlu noted that Armenia also tries to benefit from this issue.

"Georgia which was the direct victim of this war, said it lost $170,000,000, while Armenia, which did not take direct participation, announced that it lost $680,000,000.

This figure was confirmed by official Washington, which allocated the due amount to Armenia. It means that West decided to provide financial assistance for Armenia to get rid of Russia", said Ahmedoghlu.

He said West is confident that Russia must lose more than it gained from war with Georgia. The political scientist noted that the most loyal expert in Russia mentions $35-40 bln, while the most radical $450 bln.
