Interview with Georgian historian Beka KobakhidzeThe balance of power on Europe's eastern borders is shifting. Georgian historian Beka Kobakhidze speaks from Tbilisi about rivalry and emerging alliances in the region, an impotent EU and disappointed pro-democracy activists. Russia and Turkey are involved, Iran also has interests in the region, but the EU is nowhere to be seen. Beka Kobakhidze: In economic terms, the European Union's presence is indeed felt in the Caucasus. The plan is that this forum will involve not only Turkey and Azerbaijan, but also Russia, Iran, Armenia and Georgia.
