The most outstanding result of the recent summit of the presidents of the five littoral states (Russia, Iran, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan and Turkmenistan), among which there are no women and gathered in Astrakhan, to determine the legal status of the largest lake in the world, was a joint political statement: No foreign military presence in the region! Direct response the United States and Israel, which have already settled in Azerbaijan agree on military cooperation with Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan, and trying to push through its program Caspian Guard, which allocated $ 135 million. This is undoubtedly a great victory for Vladimir Putin after such shocks as the Ukrainian events and Western sanctions against Russia. Improvement of Iranian-Russian relations, as expressed in the compliments showered on each others heads of national governments in the resumption of direct flights from Moscow to Tehran and the abandonment of the dollar in bilateral trade, has become a major highlight of the meeting. Yet neighbors were unable to agree on how to divide the lake and 48 billion Barril oil and 8.7 trillion cubic meters of gas, which are on its bottom and coasts. Caspian Sea can be considered since Stalin ordered him to join in 1948, with the Mediterranean Sea through the Volga-Don Canal, which made it possible to communicate with the shipping Azov and Black Seas. If so, the countries that are not coastal - as, for example, the United States - can apply for the use of its resources. However, in the old and the only Soviet-Iranian treaty in 1940 called the Caspian lake, as well as entitled to equal and exclusive rights to operate in it two of the Caspian states. Quintet decided to build a circular railway, intended to connect the ports of the Caspian Sea, as well as joint exercises on disaster management in 2016.
