Foreign Policy
Russia's foreign policy is centered on restoring great-power status, maintaining influence in the post-Soviet space (the 'near abroad'), and building a multipolar world order. The Ukraine war has accelerated Russia's pivot toward China and the Global South while severing most diplomatic ties with the West.
Key instruments include energy leverage, nuclear deterrence, Wagner Group/Africa Corps deployments in Africa, and strategic partnerships through BRICS, the SCO, and bilateral relationships with India, Turkey, and Gulf states.
