THE YEAR 2013 has to a very large extent become a year of Asia for Russia. The 2012 summit of the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation forum (APEC) in Vladivostok was followed this year by Russian-Chinese and Russian-Indian summits in Moscow in March and October, 2013. Vladimir Putin's participation in the APEC summit in Bali, Indonesia, in September, his November visits to Hanoi and Seoul, Russian-Japanese negotiations in a "2+2" format (foreign and defense ministers), and a number of other top and high-level meetings, showing that the Asia Pacific region is gaining ground in Russia's policy.
