Whitehall Papers  No. 71
Who Lost Russia?

The idea that a country could be 'lost' is, of course, a rather strange concept. The fact is that, two decades after the Soviet Union collapsed without violence, relations between Russia and the West are not doing well is now dominating political and intellectual debate on both sides of the Atlantic. A consensus appears to be evolving, according to which the West is responsible for missing a historic opportunity to engage Russia, because it did not appreciate the full depth of Russia's aspirations and feelings, ramming through purely Western objectives, at the expense of Russia's 'legitimate' security needs.

It is the main contention of this study that this belief is fundamentally wrong, that there was never much of a chance for a true Russian-Western engagement, and that the main blame lies with the leaders of Russia themselves.
