Russia, the Near Abroad, and the West: Lessons from the Moldova-Transdniestria C

Description: Russia, the Near Abroad, and the West by William H. Hill Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description This event colored Russias interpretations of subsequent western intervention in the region-in Georgia after the Rose Revolution, Ukraine in 2004, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, and elsewhere throughout the former Soviet empire. Publisher Description Post-communist Russia turned against the West in the 2000s, losing its earlier eagerness to collaborate with western Europe on economic and security matters and adopting a suspicious and defensive posture. This book, investigating a diplomatic negotiation involving Russia and the formerly Soviet Moldova, explains this dramatic shift in Russian foreign policy. William H. Hill, himself a participant in the diplomatic encounter, describes a key episode that contributed to Russias new attitude: negotiations over the Russian-leaning break-away territory of Transdniestria in Moldova - in which Moldova abandoned a Russian-supported settlement at the last minute under heavy pressure from the West. Hills first-hand account provides a unique perspective on historical events as well as information to assist scholars and policymakers to evaluate future scenarios. When western leaders blocked what they saw as an unworkable settlement in a small, remote post-Soviet state, Kremlin leaders perceived a direct geopolitical challenge on their own turf.This event colored Russias interpretations of subsequent western intervention in the region - in Georgia after the Rose Revolution, Ukraine in 2004, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, and elsewhere throughout the former Soviet empire.
