Summary/Abstract: Over the past few months, Belarus and Russia have stepped up talks on the conditions for further integration. Russia wants to take advantage of Belarus’ international isolation after the rigging of last year’s presidential elections as that country is increasingly dependent on it. The deepening integration of the countries will not only reduce Belarus’ sovereignty, but will have consequences for regional security.
