Thanks to Vice-President Biden, “pressing the reset button” is now the new catchphrase for describing U.S. – Russian relations. How that button gets pressed is the topic of breezy as well as in-depth analysis from any number of popular publications. This BBC News report offers a topical breakdown of U.S. – Russia relations, focusing on the key areas (missile shield, Iran, Afghanistan, NATO, and counter-terrorism) that are most likely to be addressed by the Obama reset team. This would be the light and breezy analysis, and for something more substantive, Andrew Kuchins, director of the Center for Strategic and International Studies Russia and Eurasia Program, and Anders Aslund, senior fellow at the Peterson Institute, have published a policy briefing on U.S.-Russia Relations. This policy brief is the concluding chapter of their forthcoming book, The Russia Balance Sheet, and is available here as a PDF download.
