Sommario/riassunto |
|
<span><span>This book offers in-depth analysis of the reasons behind Russia's policy toward the construction of a U.S ballistic missile defense system in Europe. It examines Russia's policymaking dynamics and argues that, contrary to Moscow's official claims, Russia's objections are based on a combination of security concerns and political calculations.</span></span><br /><span><span> </span></span> |
