The EU-Russian strategic partnership: a patient in a deplorable condition
The purpose of this paper is not to argue that EU-Russian relations are in a state of crisis. A workable and apparently sustainable model of economic interaction has no doubt emerged as a basis of this relationship. In 2011, the trade between the sides set a historic record and surpassed the 300 billion euro threshold. The present economic interdependence can be illustrated through the use of a simple observation: the more Russia exports to Europe, the more it imports from Europe, and this propels the mutual interest. In other words; there is a positive story to tell.
