Summary / Abstract (Note) | The aftermath of 11 September 2001 has seen the beginnings of a transatlantic realignment. US–Russian relations are increasingly dynamic and US–European relations are increasingly strained. American and Russia have formed an unprecedented partnership. Their shared interest in combating global terrorism, and Putin's own pragmatic and more realistic foreign policy, have opened up new avenues for US–Russian cooperation. At a time when the United States and its traditional European allies are more and more divided over a range of economic and political issues – including complaints about American unilateralism and the conduct of the war on terrorism – America and Russia are increasingly in agreement. The US–Russian partnership has the potential to develop into a broader-based alliance that could ultimately have a positive impact both on Russia's domestic evolution and on European security. |
