@BrankoMilan This is the start of an era of dissent towards a destabilized and less influential Russia. CSTO has no legitimacy without an all-powerful kremlin.
Today, in the area of the former USSR:
War between Ukraine and Russia
War between Armenia and Azerbaijan
War (new) between Tajikistan and Kyrghyzstan.
And these were, acc. to the leading Western political scientists, revolutions of democracy, not of nationalism.
