Южная Осетия пытается присоединиться к конвенции Шанхайского договора

Южная Осетия объявила в четверг, что будет стремиться присоединиться к Конвенции Шанхайской организации сотрудничества по борьбе с экстремизмом. Де-факто президент Южной Осетии Анатолий Бибилов подписал соответствующие документы.

Ранее, 20 марта, парламент самопровозглашенной республики ратифицировал документ «О присоединении Республики Южная Осетия к Конвенции Шанхайской организации по борьбе с экстремизмом».

Конвенция Шанхайской организации сотрудничества по борьбе с экстремизмом была подписана в Астане 9 июня 2017 года. В соответствии со статьей 30 Конвенции ШОС о противодействии экстремизму к ней могут присоединиться государства, не являющиеся членами ШОС.

В Конвенции закреплены основополагающие положения об опасности экстремизма как питательной среды для терроризма, о ведущей роли государств и их компетентных органов в борьбе с экстремизмом и терроризмом, о необходимости соблюдения международного права и Устава ООН, прежде всего уважение принципа суверенитета и равенства государств, невмешательства в их внутренние дела, осуждение идеологии и практики экстремизма во всех его формах и проявлениях, недопустимость публичных призывов и подстрекательств к экстремистским действиям.

Политический редактор Commonspace.eu считаетчто «хотя присоединение к Конвенции может рассматриваться как безвредный, даже благожелательный шаг, международное сообщество будет рассматривать этот шаг как попытку Цхинвали расширить свое дипломатическое представительство, а для Тбилиси, где правительство Грузии пытается пересечь любое участие властей самопровозглашенной республики в международной дипломатической деятельности, такой шаг будет нежелательным.

Шанхайская организация сотрудничества включает восемь государств-членов, а именно: Китай, Казахстан, Кыргызстан, Россия, Таджикистан и Узбекистан, которые являются членами-основателями, а также Индию и Пакистан. Из них только Россия признала независимость Южной Осетии и поддерживает с ней дипломатические отношения. Кроме того, у многих других стран есть свои проблемы с сепаратистскими образованиями, и они вряд ли будут готовы открыть ящик Пандоры по этому вопросу. Несмотря на это, Цхинвал не пошел бы на это, если бы не получил какой-то зеленый свет от Москвы. Таким образом, возникает вопрос: что за московская игра в этом и почему сейчас? Этот шаг также идет вразрез с тем, что многие считают неприемлемым поведением де-факто властей во время продолжающейся пандемии коронавируса, включая продолжающийся процесс пограничных действий, а также распространение поддельных новостей и дезинформации в цхинвальских СМИ.

Большая часть мирового сообщества рассматривает Южную Осетию как часть Грузии, и правительство Грузии считает Южную Осетию оккупированной Россией территорией, а Россия, Сирия, Никарагу, Венесуэла и несколько других стран признали независимость Южной Осетии после войны между Россией и Грузией в 2008 году".

Russia adds pressure on Armenia ahead of key elections; recalls Ambassador in Yerevan for consultations

On 30 May, Russia recalled its Ambassador to Yerevan for consultations. A terse statement, published on the website of the Russian Foreign Ministry, said, "The Ambassador of the Russian Federation to the Republic of Armenia , S.P. Kopyrkin, has been summoned to Moscow for consultations in connection with the steps taken by the Armenian leadership to move closer to the European Union, which are detrimental to cooperation within the EAEU." This followed a statement issued the day before, by the leaders of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) that challenges the Armenian trajectory towards approximating to the European Union. Vladimir Putin is undertood to have personally pushed the other four EAEU leaders to issue the statement, which said: "Taking into account the significant risks to the economic security of the member states of the Eurasian Economic Union (hereinafter referred to as the Union) arising in connection with the preparation of the Republic of Armenia for accession to the European Union, as well as the need to prevent the associated damage to the member states of the Union: decided that the members of the Eurasian Intergovernmental Council from the Republic of Belarus, the Republic of Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic and the Russian Federation will report at the next meeting of the Supreme Eurasian Economic Council in December 2026 on the possible consequences of the suspension of the Treaty on the Eurasian Economic Union with respect to the Republic of Armenia. We share the position on the need to hold a national referendum in the Republic of Armenia as soon as possible on joining the European Union or continuing to be part of the Eurasian Economic Union."

Thursday Interview: Murad Muradov

Today, commonspace.eu starts a new regular weekly series. THURSDAY INTERVIEW, conducted by Lauri Nikulainen, will host  persons who are thinkers, opinion shapers, and implementors in their countries and spheres. We start the series with an interview with Murad Muradov, a leading person in Azerbaijan's think tank community. He is also the first co-chair of the Action Committee for a new Armenian-Azerbaijani Dialogue. Last September he made history by being the first Azerbaijani civil society activist to visit Armenia after the 44 day war, and the start of the peace process. Speaking about this visit Murad Muradov said: "My experience was largely positive. My negative expectations luckily didn’t play out. The discussions were respectful, the panel format bringing together experts from Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Turkey was particularly valuable during the NATO Rose-Roth Seminar in Yerevan, and media coverage, while varied in tone, remained largely constructive. Some media outlets though attempted to represent me as more of a government mouthpiece than an independent expert, which was totally misleading.  Overall, I see these initiatives as important steps in rebuilding trust and normalising professional engagement. The fact that soon a larger Azerbaijani civil society visits to Armenia followed, reinforces the sense that this process is moving in the right direction."
