Geopolitical tango



Turkey and Azerbaijan are notorious multi-vectoralists, trying to maintain good relations with both Russia and the West. With a certain pro-Russian slant. But where does that leave Armenia, one of Russia´s oldest allies in the region, but also an enemy of the Turks and Azeris? 

According to this CNN report, Armenia has began doing some multi-vectoralist dance moves themselves...away from Putin and towards the West. Although it´s probably at the level of trial balloons at this stage, since Russia apparently still has a huge military base in the country! 

Armenia: Is one of Russia´s oldest allies slipping from the Kremlin´s orbit?
