Japan and the Development of the Russian Far East

The main objective for the Shinzo Abe administration’s active engagement in supporting the involvement of Japanese companies in the development of the Russian Far East is to create favourable environment for resolution of the territorial issue and conclusion of a peace treaty with Russia. Japan–Russia cooperation in the Russian Far East is part of Abe’s 8-point cooperation plan with Moscow.

The Yugoslav Prelude

Proceeding from their current interests, more powerful countries often ignore the fact that, as a rule, there is no right or wrong party in domestic conflicts and civil wars; indeed, the responsibility often lies with both sides.

Noble Idealism

From the standpoint of peace prospects, the outcome of the end of the Cold War was quite acceptable for Russia. It is an entirely different matter as to how the opportunities for peaceful Russian-Western cooperation that opened up in the early 1990s were used and what has taken us to the crisis of 2014.

Is There a Demand for Modernization in Russia?

The consumer adaptive individualism and mutual mistrust within elites, together with the specifics of “sovereign democracy,” are a major obstacle to a normal political withdrawal from the crisis through the establishment of effective parties or factions within the ruling party.

Prospects for the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership Vis ? Vis Russia’s Interests

The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership is by far the most ambitious project in the field of contractual formats of regional economic cooperation, combining traditional measures to liberalize mutual trade with regulatory rules of economic activity on the territories of member states. If successful, this project will influence on the development of both the world economy and its regulatory mechanisms.

No Reason to Panic

The best strategy towards the TTP would be monitoring and assessing the applicability of its experience to integration projects involving Russia. After all, Russia was not ready to sign it anyway. Neither was China.

Domination of the Dollar: Are There Any Alternatives?

The possibilities of club monetary interaction mechanisms are very modest as they do not replace but supplement global mechanisms. Nevertheless, they deserve attention and support. Equally important is the fact that such mechanisms may have side effects, namely, general shifts in the structure of global economic governance.

Global Russians: In Search of Lost Time

J — Justice

The recent history of Russia saw a renaissance of the ideas of justice in relation to the world order. Only a few other foreign policy terms are mentioned probably as frequently in fundamental documents and in official speeches of modern Russia’s political leadership.

Who Is to Blame for the Karabakh Impasse?

Contrary to expectations, the end of the Cold War did not bring about a strengthening of general security and one of the reasons for this was a sharp deterioration of ‘local’ conflicts, most of which flared up in the territories of former socialist federations – the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia.

Whither Central Asia?

The road of Central Asia’s historic development has not been without problems, but as in the past, at this new turn it is sure to establish very special relations with Russia. The Central Asian countries simply will have no future if they do not cooperate closely with their old neighbor. However, Russia should also make moves to foster such cooperation. Centuries of practice have shown that only through our mutual efforts can we achieve the maximum effect.

Time to Decide on Russia’s Identity

The impediments to the implementation of the liberal-democratic project arise not so much from Russia’s cultural-typological differences with the West, as was the case in the early 20th century, as from its historical lag behind the West against the background of the non-essential differences.

The Russia and Turkey Factors in Hungary-Serbia Tandem’s Policies

By acting in tandem and using the Russia and Turkey factors, Hungary and Serbia have managed to maintain relative internal political and economic stability and get additional support in preserving a flexible foreign policy. Besides, Budapest and Belgrade see Moscow and Ankara as potential “gateways” to promoting the eastern foreign policy vector.

Relapses of 19th-Century Imperialist Policies

A nineteenth-century imperial policy is an anachronism in the modern world. Objectively speaking, post-Soviet Russia has returned to the nineteenth century, and it thinks that Western powers conduct the same policy. It is not able to understand why it may not do what others do.

Needless Rush

Bilateral relations have always been of tremendous significance to Kazakhstan and Russia, and they always will be. In a sense, they are more important than a multi-party integration. Our relations had existed before the establishment of the Customs Union and will continue.

Putting NATO’s Riga Summit into Context

The immediate post-Riga period should be a time to deepen the NATO-Russia partnership. The Riga Summit marked a significant step in NATO’s evolution toward a security provider within and beyond the Euro-Atlantic area. Russia has nothing to fear, and a lot to gain, from this evolution.

The Syrian Crisis: A Thorny Path from War to Peace

The second decade of the 21st century began with a string of explosive protests in the Middle East and North Africa, which have destabilized not only the countries that saw violent regime change but the entire region. A way out of the profound systemic crisis is yet to be found.

Comment of the Year: The Middle East – Syria

It must be stated right from the outset that the outgoing year has failed to bring this long-suffering region either any perceptible change for the better or a consummation of aspirations that provided a powerful impetus to the million-strong protests in the Arab world seven years ago.
