Abstract
More than 20 years after the collapse of the USSR, Russia remains the most influential outside power in the South Caucasus. This chapter examines why the region is important to Russia, what its interests are and how it has pursued its relations with the states of the region, Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia. In particular, how Russia has responded to the challenges posed by the activities of NATO and the EU will be explained. The period covered will be approximately from 2003, the year of the launch by the EU of its ENP and also the year of the Rose Revolution in Georgia, up to April 2017.
