While economic wellbeing and prosperity are matters of central importance to any state, it is security interests that constitute the first and foremost priority in foreign policy decisions. The post-Soviet space is a region critical to Russian security, and it is the part of the world that provides external powers with the most opportunities to threaten Russia proper. With stakes as high as they are, constructive and honest dialogue with Russia’s neighbours is something that should remain front and centre of Russian foreign policy, writes Timofei Bordachev, Programme Director of the Valdai Discussion Club.
