Union paradigm.
Union paradigm.
Leaders of the Russian business community start to formulate
National interests of Russia on international scene. In the past
Friday in Moscow has taken place International scientifically-practical
The conference devoted to prospects of the Russian-American
Relations. A forum organised by Institute of the applied
The international researches (IPMI), it has appeared enough
The representative. In hotel "п п я я п?п©п?п я " representatives were going to
Political and economic establishment of both countries, in that
Number of the deputy minister of foreign affairs Alexey Meshkov, the ambassador of the USA
Alexander Vershbou, the vice-speaker of the State Duma Vladimir Lukin and Michael
Khodorkovsky representing RSPP. The general idea going to became
Recognition of necessity of all-round rapprochement of Russia and the USA.
George Bush's forthcoming visit to Moscow the press already was in time
To christen not that "funeral" of cold war ", not that"wedding"
Two powers. Meanwhile from the forthcoming summit almost nobody
Waits for any sensations. In the attention centre at negotiations
Still there is a question on reduction strategic
Offensive arms - the problem which has got in the inheritance
To the Russian and American diplomats since times of the global
Oppositions of two world systems. Here ten years in
Washington and Moscow cannot overcome stereotypes of those years, when
Preservation of military parity was the main task. But time
Dictates the conditions. Events of the last year have clearly shown, that
"Grand-dad's" disputes on rockets, to put it mildly, have lost the
Urgency. Russia, and then and the USA, have faced that in
The Anglo-Saxon tradition can name new calls.
The international terrorism and economic globalisation - here
Problems in which decision are terribly interested and in America, and
At us.
However, the Russian-American novel until recently
Developed rather cautiously. The parties that did the promising
Gestures receded, worrying from proud shyness. It in
To full measure concerns and public opinion fluctuations. We,
Russians, and we can not be defined in the relation to
To Americans. On the one hand, a meeting on Elba, warm fraternisations
Seamen in neutral waters, "the Texas billionaires" at them and
"New Russian" at us, the general prostovatost in behaviour,
Calling a sceptical mine at prudish Europeans, and with another -
Long-term image of the enemy and habit to rivalry in all - from
Space before figure skating.
In January the positive relation to States stated almost
70 % of respondents VTSIOM but after has worked the notorious
"The Olympic factor", the situation has sharply exchanged from "plus" on
"Minus".
"The Russian public opinion does not have settled
Priorities in the relation to America ", - Michael considers
Khodorkovsky supervising the international questions in the Russian union
Industrialists and businessmen. Addressing to opening
International scientifically - practical conference "the New summons
Day in the Russian-American relations ", he has declared, that in
Interstate contacts of Russia and the USA domestic business
It is interested in the prompt change of "a rivalry paradigm" on
"An union paradigm".
At a considerable part of the Russian business community has appeared
Obvious interest to closer cooperation with Americans, as
Partners in global economic. Also it is a question not only
About the recent offer vitse - US president Richard Chejni,
Assuming increase of a role of Russia in the American
Power strategy. Oil - it is far not unique and in
To prospect at all an essential of cooperation of two countries.
It is a question of, that by means of interaction with developed
The countries to carry out break of Russia in a postindustrial society.
In consumer goods manufacture in "world scale" successfully are engaged
China and India. Russia cannot compete with their cheap and
Qualitative assemblage. It is obvious, that other way is necessary. For example,
Advancement of "soft technologies" in the field of a high tech and education.
But such development is impossible without integration into the world community
And economic. It turns out, that Russia, as any another
The country, is interested today in globalisation.
Here - in the field of creation of new economy, in opinion
Khodorkovsky and experts created at its support
Institute of applied international researches (IPMI), can
To be outlined a cooperation wide field between two countries. It
Especially important in the light of arrogant plans of economic growth,
On which now insist not only president Putin, but also
The large Russian capital. By whom we should be guided
In foreign policy? The head of YUKOS considers, that Americans much
More close Russia, than Europeans, as "the American mentality
It is adjusted on more aggressive development, and from this point of view we
We can find the real ally ". For Europe present Russia -
The disturber of the calmness, the growing young organism throwing
Call of more and more stagnant burgher stability. And here for the USA
- Russia at least the favourable strategic partner in the plan
Creations of system of safety on the Euroasian continent. And
For today much more preferable, than the countries
EU.
The similar point of view, similar, divide and regarding the Russian
Political establishment. So, Vladimir Lukin, acting on
The informal dinner arranged for participants and visitors
Conferences IPMI in "Metropole", has fallen with sharp criticism on
Political structures of the European Union in connection with their position in
The relation of Russia also has underlined, that the Moscow summit will pass on
Background of an aggravation of contradictions with Europe. Meanwhile Lukin it agree
With those who considers, that now Russia - most
The preferable strategic partner for the USA. As to
NATO, recently from "the liked son" Americas, it
Has turned to its stepson, and for a vacant role of "the liked son"
Now Russia can apply. However, arguing about
Possibilities of an establishment of friendship with Americans, it time and again
Has made a reservation: "If will carry".
Certainly, it is enough reasons for similar reservations. In
Russia, and in America it is far not all are ready to speeding up
Allied relations. In many respects the future rapprochement depends from
That, how much successful will be market and democratic
Reforms in Russia. "We want, that our allies had the general with
Us values of democracy ", - are reminded by the ambassador of the USA in Russia
Alexander Vershbou. Not on last place among problems on a way
The Russian-American partner dialogue costs purely
The human, personnel factor. Especially sharply it concerns
Modern Russian diplomatic komjuniti. Senior
The generation midovtsev and scientific - foreign affairs specialists is too old, that
To change the belief. As to new generation,
The most intellectual and its dynamical part last years
Has concentrated in sphere of private business. In
Result the majority of diplomatic officials as spoke
The known hero, "suzhdenja scoop from the forgotten newspapers".
It is obvious, that today the Russian diplomacy requires in
Young sight, nezamutnennom prejudices and complexes
The last decades. The liberal economy inevitably dictates
The laws in all spheres of a life of a society. Leaning on
Requirements of development of the Russian economy, to us it is time to understand
Own interests on international scene and, proceeding from these
Interests to find effective strategic partners. Apparently,
On this way to us not to avoid wide interaction from the USA.
