The Economization of Russian Foreign Policy

The Conflict between Russia and Belarus Escalates

Russia is using the global financial crisis to strengthen its position in the post-Soviet neighborhood.

Russia no longer considers close alliance partners and instead asserts its own economic and political interests.
