A wider Europe: the view from Moscow and Kyiv
Article Abstract:
Russia's and the European Union's attitudes towards NATO and the European Union (EU) are compared and contrasted. The Russian sense of exclusion from the international community has resulted from NATO expansion and has been worsened by the air strikes against Serbia, while the Ukrainian sense has been caused mainly by disappointment at the difficulties of attaining EU membership.
