Abstract
Meanwhile, we are able to look back on twenty years
of independence of the three South Caucasian states.
However, there is no other region of the former Soviet
Union in which the emergence of state sovereignty was
connected with so much bloodshed as in South Caucasus.
Thus, the happiness about the act of national selfdetermination
is at the same time subdued by the failure
to resolve the diverging interests peacefully.
