Tajik's humiliation of Putin: as well as Aliyev forced to apologize to the Kremlin dictator

Azerbaijan President Ilham Aliyev did what seemed impossible - forced Putin to apologize. And this, a confident analyst Igar Tyshkevich - only the beginning: Azerbaijan showed what a decrease in the Kremlin's influence, and did it in Central Asia, where the position of the Russian Federation is traditionally strong . . . Putin still apologized to Aliyev. More precisely, he acknowledged that Azal's plane was shot down by Russian air defense missiles.

But the type is not specifically, but because of the "technical problems" of the air defense system itself. In fact, the Russian Federation did what Azerbaijan demanded at first - to recognize. Now there will be compensation (probably) from the Kremlin. But most importantly - for the first time in a long time Putin is forced to apologize. The situation for him is clearly inconvenient and uncomfortable. But nothing can do.

The dive with Azerbaijan threatened the problems with oil exports (painful) and more active rapprochement of Baku and Kiev (more painful). Aliyev was extremely satisfied. And with all his behavior he demonstrated who at that meeting the chief, and who the petitioner. But the most important thing is another. Azerbaijan demonstrated what a decrease in the Kremlin has. And it happened in Tajikistan.
