| Summary / Abstract (Note) | THE RUSSIAN FOREIGN MINISTRY increasingly sees the current state of international relations as a dangerous no-rules game. One comes to this conclusion when one sees the established world order falling apart and international treaties that have done such a good job to so many countries, guaranteeing global security and stability for many decades, being called into question or just ignored. General Charles de Gaulle's quip that "treaties are like roses and young girls" because "they last while they last" isn't very comforting. One is tempted to comment that, after all, stability is better than instability. But it is the global business community that today's transition from the old world order to a new one is hitting particularly hard - it has involuntarily become a hostage to geopolitical games. |
