Summary/Abstract |
THE ELEVENTH OF JANUARY of this year was the 100th anniversary of the death of the Russian Empire's last ambassador to the United Kingdom, Count Alexander Benckendorff, who is buried inside the Westminster Cathedral in London, the main Catholic church of England and Wales. This anniversary was, in a sense, a reminder of a mission that Benckendorff had in London, where he arrived in 1903, but was unable to fulfill. What was that mission, and why its failure still affects us today?

Summary/Abstract |
WE ALL KNOW which states make up the European Union, so everything is clear about it, while "Greater Europe" remains so far a fuzzy idea. De Gaulle who looked at the problem from the geographic and historical points of view meant Europe from the Atlantic to the Urals. Today, half a century later, there are people who still doubt Russia's European nature. In an interview with Dmitry Rogozin (before he was appointed vice premier) a French journalist was taken aback by the remark 'When in Vladivostok I do not doubt that I'm in Europe; in Marseille, however, I'm not that sure."

Summary/Abstract |
Russia is a European nation which stretches across Northern Asia all the way to the Pacific. Its future therefore lies, at least in part with the EU, in spite of US inspired attempts to keep the two apart by perpetuating the Cold War. HENRI DE GROSSOUVRE and PIERRE PASCALLON suggest that the OSCE may provide the right platform to heal this historic rift and rebuild continental unity.

Summary/Abstract |
Russian media have paid quite a lot of attention to the April 2014 resolution of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) that deprived the Russian delegation of its right to vote, a move that, in effect, was upheld by PACE in January 2015.
