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 |
V.V. PUTIN'S PROGRAMMATIC ARTICLE concerning the idea of a new regional association in the Eurasian space - a Eurasian Union1 - has provided a new impulse to integration processes in the post-Soviet area, not only ideological but also organizational. At present, the Eurasian Union project includes three states - Russia, Belarus, and Kazakhstan, but it is an open project, envisioning further expansion in Eurasia.

Summary/Abstract |
Today, when democracy is in crisis, the developing countries are finding the stronger global and regional integration processes much more important than before. This is largely true of the post-Soviet countries which, having entered a new development stage, are coping with the globalization challenges through structural transformations. The Republic of Armenia is one of them.
Throughout the 25 years of its independence, Armenia has been consistently moving toward a free democratic society irrespective of numerous problems in all spheres, including its foreign policy sphere. Its national security problems are resolved by its military-strategic relations with Russia, which has formulated the idea of the EurAsEC as a common economic expanse to counterbalance the EU. Moscow is putting pressure on all the CIS countries (Armenia among them) in an effort to draw them into this new structure which, in the near future, is expected to develop into the Eurasian Union.
European integration is a foreign policy priority in Armenia. The European political establishment, in turn, is demonstrating a far from adequate approach, to say the least, toward Armenia's possible EurAsEC membership. The Europeans make no secret of their intention to put pressure on Armenia, not only to prevent its membership in the Eurasian Union, but also to weaken Russia's influence in the Southern Caucasus and fortify their own positions in the south of the post-Soviet space and the Middle East.
The far from simple choice between the EurAsEC and the EU is proving to be a durability test in complementarism.

Summary/Abstract |
Entire generations of people born in the former Soviet Union would wholeheartedly support unification, but a logical question arises: With whom are we going to unite? A country that has assimilated the worst from Western capitalism, rampant with xenophobia and domestic racism, and which is suffering from a demographic and technological decline? A country whose economy is controlled by the mafia and oligarchs?

Summary/Abstract |
Not so long ago it seemed that by the end of the 2000s interest in Central Asia from abroad had exhausted itself and there was nothing new to add to what had already been written about the region. The West, which paid the greatest attention to the region due to the presence of America and NATO in Afghanistan, appeared to have lost its geopolitical interest in Central Asia. Washington unofficially recognized Russia's "legitimate" interests in the region as part of the reset policy, probably in the hope that Moscow's influence would be trimmed by China's increasing presence in the same region.
