Lecture Abstract: In the beginning of 2014 the Ukraine crisis seriously affected EU-Russia relations, and the question arose: are the EU and Russia still strategic partners? Of late EU-Russia relations have largely been determined by the political situation in Ukraine. The Ukraine crisis has prevented the realization of the common interest projects within the EU-Russia strategic partnership. On the other hand, the EU and Russia are not ready to give up the strategic partnership. The presenter will offer his insights about the EU-Russia strategic partnership.
