Summary/Abstract |
THE FAST CHANGING international situation requires Russia's flexible and timely reaction to the new challenges and threats to its security that arise in the process of the constant evolution of the entire system of modern international relations. At the same time, the Russian Federation, too, is in the process of transformation; it is acquiring new possibilities for an effective response to these challenges and threats; the structure of its national security interests is changing, which should find its reflection in Russia's new foreign policy concept. It is therefore not surprising that among the first decrees V.V. Putin signed after his inauguration as the president of Russia is the decree "On Measures to Ensure the Realization of the Russian Federation's Foreign Policy Course" that instructed the RF Foreign Ministry to present a new draft of the RF foreign policy concept. This will be the country's fourth foreign policy concept since the disintegration of the USSR 21 years ago.

Summary/Abstract |
On 1 January, 2012, the official opening of the Common Economic Space (CES) of Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Russia, which moved customs control to the outer border of the Customs Union (CU) in July 2011, launched a qualitatively new stage in integration development in the post-Soviet expanse. The objective conditions for consolidating economic cooperation among the three countries have long emerged, the technical work, in the best interests of all the partners concerned, has been carried out, and the top leaders are showing sufficient political will. So there is every reason to believe that the driving force behind post-Soviet integration in the CU-CES format has sprung into action.
Flat duty and tax rates on imported goods, sanitary and veterinary control, and technical regulation principles have been in effect for Russia, Belarus, and Kazakhstan alike since the middle of 2011. On 1 January, 2012, a basic set of documents on the CES consisting of 17 agreements came into force that address the rights of migrant workers and the members of their families, standard principles of currency policy, access to railroad transport services, standard regulations for the support of agricultural goods producers, and conditions for ensuring free movement of capital. All of this will help to form a common market with more than 170 million consumers and a total gross product of more than $1,385 billion.

Summary/Abstract |
Until quite recently it was customary for expert and political circles in Central Asia to claim that Russia had no coherent strategy towards countries of the region. This statement revealed an additional undertone after the European Union had adopted a Central Asia strategy in 2007: "Even the EU has a strategy for Central Asia, but Russia..." The phrase was completed in various ways, but the bottom line remained unchanged, underscoring Russia's lack of a long-term political and economic plan for the region.

Summary/Abstract |
The article explores ways to ensure the internal consolidation of the BRICS
group, which is at a crucial stage of its development due to the sharply
changed geopolitical situation. It emphasizes that the issue of BRICS’
enlargement, which has taken central stage lately due to the desire of more
than two dozen states to join it, should not sideline the task of deepening
economic interaction within the group, structuring it further, and turning
it into a full-fledged economic cooperation organization.

Summary/Abstract |
THE IMAGE OF RUSSIA in Ukraine is signally important for the peoples of both countries, two fraternal peoples which in 1991 found themselves on different sides of the border. Integration of the two states depends on the way Russia is presented to the Ukrainians. This was important in the past and has become even much more important because of Kiev's vacillations between cooperation with Russia through the Customs Union and the Common Economic Space and with the European Union.
