| Summary/Abstract |
IN 2015, THE OSCE will celebrate the 40th anniversary of the signing of the Helsinki Final Act (HFA), which heralded the start of a pan-European process and the birth of a new international structure. A debate has now begun at its Vienna headquarters on the path traversed and the road ahead. Some delegations envision a greater role for the OSCE in the changed security situation in the Euro-Atlantic area and having it back on the frontline of international relations. In this regard I'd like to talk about the OSCE's role amid growing "institutional crowdedness" in Europe and what place it holds in Russia's arsenal of foreign policy tools.
