Maragall Hall, CIDOB Foundation
Organised by:
CIDOB Foundation, IBEI

In March 2008, Russia will hold presidential elections to choose the person who will replace Vladimir Putin as President of the Federation. Thus, Putin is nearing the end of his second presidential term of office. Beyond the speculation over his political future, it is clear that the Russian Federation has been greatly transformed under his two mandates. One of the areas in which the greatest changes have taken place is in that of foreign policy. One month before the elections, the CIDOB Foundation is to hold a session that will make an assessment of these significant changes.

The conference will be chaired by the renowned South African specialist on the subject of Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States, Margot Light, Professor Emeritus at the London School of Economics and Political Science. Professor Light will be analysing the changes that have taken place in Russia's foreign policy over the past four years, placing them in the wider perspective of the construction of Russia's new foreign policy following the dismantling of the Soviet Union.

The conference will be held in English (no translation available).
