Summary / Abstract (Note)WITH THE recent downturn in U.S.-Russian relations, observers in both Washington and Moscow have remarked upon the cyclical nature of this key bilateral relationship. As Fyodor Lukyanov, a leading Russian commentator, noted in late 2012, "If we look at the relationship since 1991, it's the same cycle all the time, between kind words and inspiration and deep crisis. Yeltsin, Clinton, Bush, Putin, Obama, it's the same pattern." Indeed, the phases of high hopes and expectations in the years 1991-1994, 2000-2003 and 2009-2011-followed by deep disappointment in the intervening and subsequent years-do seem to represent a cyclical pattern.
