Think Tank Analysis: Central Europe's Energy Security Schism

Ryan R. Miller: Central European countries are, on balance, divided, not united, when it comes to Russian energy supply dominance. Washington should find ways to step up its involvement and combat both the symptoms of Central Europe’s energy security ‘schism’ as well as the disease itself.

CEPA analyst Ryan R. Miller describes the problem of Russia's energy grip on post-communist Central Europe and outlines how the Central European policy response varies from country to country. In doing so, he divides the ten countries of the region into "strategic players" like Poland and "commercial opportunists" such as Bulgaria. Miller argues that there is still more the United States could be doing in support of its allies' energy security. (July 2008)
