THE GEOPOLITICS OF RUSSIA IN THE BLACK SEA REGION. A ROMANIAN VIEW
THE GEOPOLITICS OF RUSSIA IN THE BLACK SEA REGION. A ROMANIAN VIEW

Summary/Abstract: First of all, I would like to speak about the methodology of approaching this subject of research. In my view, I am trying to emphasize the Russian participation into regional mechanisms of cooperation in this area. Conciliating the idealism with the pragmatism, my analysis is focusing on the geopolitical and geoeconomical Russian interests on the Black Sea. The work hypothesis consists of three levels of research: geopolitics and strategy, the landscape security issue - a Russian approach, and finally Russian and BSEC (Black Sea Economic Cooperation). Russia has an essential role in the dynamic of the region because it represents a center of power which linked the Black Sea area, with Caspian Space and Central Asia and promotes the institutional system of Community of the Independent States (CSI).
