May 2012 Survey of Developments in U.S.-Russia Relations
Working Group on the Future of the US-Russia Relations. 2012.
In general, the events of this May spoke in favor of increased pragmatism in the Russia’s foreign policy towards the United States. These events as well reflected positively on the future evolution of relations between the two countries. At the same time, Washington’s policy to maintain a positive course of bilateral relations with Russia remained unchanged, while the probability of a new, serious deterioration in US-Russian relations in the near future was low. U.S.-Russian cooperation in areas of national interest (primarily Afghanistan) will be continued. However, the readiness of Moscow to build up a positive agenda in relations with Washington seems to have decreased.

In February 2012, the influence of the presidential elections in Russia, held on March 4, 2012, on Russian-American relations reached its climax. The election campaign of the Prime Minister Vladimir Putin made a special emphasis on the idea of the revival of Russia as a great power, the restoration of its military power and the ...

In March, Russian-American relations began to return to normal after a period of heightened politicization associated with the presidential campaign in Russia, when the level of anti-American rhetoric in Russia (including the rhetoric from the Prime Minister and presidential candidate Vladimir Putin) reached its peak in many years. This rhetoric died down almost immediately after ...

In several years from now the US-Russia relations might find themselves in a situation where the positive cooperative agenda will shrink or marginalize, while the negative one will grow both in size and importance, and Russia could again color the US as a major threat to its military and political security. ...

The Russian agenda for relations with the United States is very modest and largely retrospective. The agenda lacks new possible areas of cooperation (e.g. building closer security cooperation in the Asia-Pacific region), which could make the relations between the two countries more sustainable. The same is true of the joint agenda for the next six ...

In April, Russia continued to argue that the politicization of Russian-American relations from its side, specifically from the beginning of this year, was in the past, and its policy towards the United States would be pragmatic, based on national interests. The main evidence of this was the speech of the elected President of Russia Vladimir ...

In January 2012 Russian-American relations entered an off-season, as election campaigns in both countries have gone into high gear and foreign relations have been made a tool of each country’s domestic political struggle. In Russia, there was a surge of critical rhetoric against the United States from officials representing the ruling government and Prime Minister ...

Russian-U.S. relations seem to have entered a long period of not just keen rivalry, but also confrontation. This unpleasant conclusion stems from the actual way these relations have developed recently. Already in 2012-2013 the parties were in a stalemate of utter irritation with each other, and today the interests of both countries’ elites are definitely ...

Дискуссия об интеграционном выборе Украины в последнее десятилетие традиционно основывается на трех общеизвестных тезисах: о безусловной значимости этой страны для региональных группировок, о желании России любыми средствами вовлечь ее в евразийскую интеграцию, а также о ее ключевом месте в отношениях России и ЕС, характеризуемых как «игра с нулевой суммой». Проведенное исследование показало их несоответствие действительности ...

After the end of the Cold War and the establishment of a unipolar international order, many scholars came to the conclusion that “balancing” as an instrument of state policy has disappeared. This research proves the opposite. First, it undertakes theoretical analysis of the “balancing dilemma” and defines the system of independent variables which can guarantee ...

The serious economic and political crisis in Venezuela weakened its foreign policy opportunities. The decline of the oil production and the drop of world fuel prices led to a decrease in the effectiveness of the Caracas’s energy diplomacy. At the same time, the end of the left political cycle in Latin America and the loss ...

Данная статья рассматривает место «мягкой силы» во внешней политике США как в плане теории, так и конкретного внешнеполитического механизма. Отмечается, что в последние два десятилетия «мягкая сила» стала более востребованным инструментом в международных отношениях, так как по разным причинам использование «жесткой силы» сегодня имеет множество ограничений.
Авторы выделяют в «мягкой силе» ее пассивную (имманентную стране) и ...

Starting from the late 2000s, the Post-Soviet states have faced the so-called integration dilemma. Seeking to deepen their trade relations and economic links with the regional centers of force – the European Union and Russia – they found themselves increasingly compelled to choose between two integration projects: either joining the EU As- sociation Agreement and ...

While developing their counter-terrorist cooperation, Russia and the United States should remember that, like in the 2000s, it will not be sufficient to ensure a stable strategic partnership. Failure to overcome the philosophy of mutual deterrence will mean that Russia and the United States are unable to reach a level of cooperation where backsliding is ...

One hopes that the wise decision of Moscow and Washington to prevent the ballistic missile defense (BMD) issue from hindering the improvement of their relations will ultimately help them to see the unimportance of their BMD deadlock and to focus instead on the issues that really matter. If they do, they will not have to ...

The rhetoric of Donald Trump, as well as some of his actions, have given rise to a lot of questions as to what will be the United States’ future policy toward certain leading international organizations like the UN, G7, the EU, and the WTO. This policy will certainly undergo a number of changes, but most ...

Excessive personalization and a closed structure of decision making process do not allow reacting effectively to the emergent ...

В 2013 г. в российско-американских отношениях закрепилась модель избирательного прагматического сотрудничества. В соответствии с ней Москва и Вашингтон не ставили собой, как в период "перезагрузки", задач по целенаправленному улучшению отношений и поиску новых слагаемых позитивной повестки дня. Отношения были пущены на самотек. Стороны сотрудничали там, где их интересы по тем или иным причинам сходились, и ...
