New Rules in the South Caucasus: Tehran and Moscow Speak Up

Iran is again clarifying its red lines in the South Caucasus: for Tehran, any "corridor" agenda is unacceptable.

Meanwhile, Russia, with cautious optimism, is trying to balance its interests in the region, not abandoning its intention to counter Washington's growing influence.
