Overview

In this new book, the authors assert that the Trilateral countries -- the United States, Canada, Japan, and the nations of the European Union -- have made an inadequate and intermittent commitment of policy toward Russia since 1991. They focus on four broad elements of the long agenda for engaging Russia: European "architecture" -- they propose greatly intensified NATO-Russia links and they suggest a managing body drawn from OSCE members; nuclear issues -- they urge a much larger effort o assist the Russian government in removing nuclear weapons and fissile materials from present and prospective temptation; Northeast Asia -- they contend that in contrast to Europe, Russian power is not a central problem in East Asia and the potential gains from engaging Russia in this region are sometimes overlooked; and support for political and economic reform in Russia -- given the stakes involved, they argue, the trilateral countries have done too little to support reform in Russia and the other former Sovietrepublics.,Russia may become a more difficult partner in the years ahead. But unless the Kremlin returns decisively to a path hostile to the West, the authors argue, the depth of the Trilateral countries' interests in this great power will call for the inclusive approach they set out.
