Between the European Union and Russia. Perspectives on Ukraine’s complex political situation
Journal Title: UNKNOWN - Year 2013, Vol 1, Issue
Abstract
Ukraine finds itself in a difficult position between the European Union and the newest Russian-engineered integration project for the post-Soviet space, the Eurasian Union. A thorough understanding of the interdependence between Ukraine and its partners is thus essential for determining "the right way" for Ukraine. The paper, on which this article is based, explores this by applying Complex Interdependence Theory and proposes a cautious foreign policy approach.
