New U.S. Deputy Assistant Secretary of State and probable OSCE MG CO-Chair candidate on NKR issue settlement Tina S. Kaidanow will pay initial visit to South Caucasus in September. The diplomat plans to visit Georgia first to meet with Georgian authorities and opposition representatives.

There is no information about the terms and details of Kaidanow’s visit to Armenia, U.S. Embassy in Armenia informed NEWS.am.

While Georgia takes Kaidanow’s measure so far, Azerbaijan already beats the alarm on her possible designation to Bryza’s post. The fact she was the U.S. Ambassador to Kosovo and meanwhile the mover of its independence raised panic in Azerbaijan.
