Russian Foreign Policy under Dmitry Medvedev, 2008-2012 - Valerie (School of Slavonic and East European Studies Pacer - Bog

Although the presidency of Dmitry Medvedev is often seen as a continuation of Vladimir Putin¿s presidency, with the same policies applied in the same way, this book disagrees, arguing that Medvedev¿s foreign policy was significantly different from Putin¿s. The book considers especially the relationship between Russia and the Euro-Atlantic security configuration, including both NATO and the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe. It discusses a wide variety of issues, including "frozen conflicts" and security co-operation and nuclear weapons reductions.
