YEREVAN.- If Georgian Dream’s victory leads to normalization of relations between Tbilisi and Moscow, it will strengthen Armenia’s positions in the region, Armenian analyst believes.

Normalization of Georgia-Russia relations will positively affect infrastructure and communication, Deputy Director of Caucasus Institute Sergey Minasyan told reporters on Thursday.

As to Azerbaijan’s response to the Georgian election results, Minasyan said Baku “was surprised”. They perceived negatively improvement of Armenia’s position, he added. As to the West, for them the most important issue is democracy. Change of power in Georgia was made through elections, thus the country can expect increase in economic and political assistance.

Georgian Dream led by billionaire Bidzina Ivanishvili won the October 1 parliamentary elections. Saakashvili conceded defeat and announced his party will become the opposition.
