- Authors
Kanaev, Evgeny; Korolev, Alexander
- Abstract
While Russia's policy in Southeast Asia (SEA) encounters serious deficiencies, in 2016, plans to raise the Russia‐ASEAN relationship to the level of strategic partnership were announced at the top level. The puzzle is how cooperation between Russia and ASEAN in Eurasia can lay the foundation for their strategic partnership. The article gives insights into Russia's policy in SEA through the prism of ASEAN prospective plans, traces the increase in bilateral cooperation in Eurasia, and assesses the potential of the ASEAN‐SCO‐EAEU format and its implications for Russia's policy in SEA. The authors argue that the Russia‐ASEAN strategic partnership will be premised upon their cooperation in Greater Eurasia, which will give a strong impetus to Russia's policy in SEA. The article identifies the reasons behind premising the planned Russia‐ASEAN strategic partnership on Greater Eurasia's foundation, the obstacles the parties will have to overcome, and the impact of this cooperation upon Russia‐ASEAN connectivity.
