Abstract

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the South Caucasus region became an extremely unstable geopolitical space, a battleground for the interests of several global players in global politics - the United States, Russia, the European Union, and other local players such as Iran and Turkey. The current difficult situation in the South Caucasus is the result of inter-ethnic conflicts, territorial and other disputes, as well as conflicts of interest of third parties in the region. The importance of Georgia in the region is determined primarily by its geographical location, which makes the country a central hub for transport communications. In this context, achieving stability in the South Caucasus is an important task for all participants in the international political process, realizing their interests in this region.
