| Summary/Abstract |
Poland and Lithuania are young and strategically inexperienced
countries that do not fully understand the consequences of their
actions. Their goal is to undermine Belarus internally, to deprive
it of its status of agency in international affairs, and to make use of its
resources and the outflow of people that may occur as a result of the
crisis, writes Valdai Club Program Director Andrei Sushentsov.

| Summary/Abstract |
The current state of U.S.-Russia relations is often compared with that of the Cold War. However, contradictions today between Moscow and Washington do not determine the dynamics of modern international relations. The confronta-tion between these two countries embraces all spheres (informational, eco-nomic, and political), resulting in a highly-dependent situation where conflict impacts all areas of cooperation. Relations between Russia and the United States сlearly manifest a psychological phenomenon known as fundamental attribution error that indicates a tendency towards explaining the behavior and actions of other people by their bad qualities and one’s own behavior by exter-nal circumstances. At the same time, the U.S-Russia confrontation is taking place against the background of a de facto political “civil war” within the Ameri-can establishment, which has greatly disrupted foreign policy decision-making in Washington.

| Summary/Abstract |
Why do Russian-Ukrainian relations are of great concern to every
Russian and Ukrainian? In some regards, what we are witnessing today is
a delayed civil war which could have happened in the early 1990s
with the collapse of the USSR, when the first leaders of independent
Russia and Ukraine boasted that they had avoided a bloody divorce
like that in Yugoslavia. In Russia, every other citizen has relatives in
neighboring Ukraine, and the current developments are more a matter
of domestic politics. When the Ukrainian government closes Russian
Orthodox churches or bans a pro-Russian opposition political party,
the story gets immediate coverage on Russian state TV channels and
comments from Russian politicians.
