Russia and Eurasia

The Europe, Russia, and Eurasia Program conducts research and provides analysis, assessment, and recommendations to governments, nonprofit organizations, the private sector, and the public. With a focus centered on Russia and its post-Soviet neighbors, the program also looks beyond these borders, from Lisbon to Vladivostok and the Arctic to the Indian Ocean to understand how the Soviet successor states are affected by and interact with the world around them.
 
The program’s areas of focus include regional security, defense, domestic politics, environment and energy, economic development, among others. It also analyzes the political and economic relationships between the states of the former Soviet Union and other critical geopolitical actors, including the United States, European Union, and the states of Northeast Asia, South Asia, and the greater Middle East.
