Russia and Europe in the Aftermath of the Georgian Conflict: New Challenges, Old Paradigms
Briefing Note (part of the Perspectives on the Georgia Conflict series)
Dr Arkady Moshes, September 2008
Following the Georgia conflict, Russia's policy towards the EU has been proactive, coherent, and well-articulated. European policy has been none of these things. Europe instinctively clings to the old paradigm of relations with Russia, which does not demand strategic goals to be formulated. The EU must find the courage to address the new reality, and give a greater strategic focus to its dealings with Russia.
This briefing note forms part of the series - 'Six Perspectives on the Georgia Conflict'.
