Whereas Ukraine typically stands opposed to Russian influence, Belarus has remained a close ally since the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991. Nonetheless, Russian foreign policy there is hardly distinguishable from their policy elsewhere in the region. As recently as 2010, Russia, Belarus, and Kazakhstan formed a customs union. Though Belarus predicted reduced tariffs and subsidized oil prices, they in fact received increased prices and higher tariffs. The price hikes were so costly that Belarus chose to import oil from Venezuela rather than pay for the Russian oil that flows through their own borders on its way to Western Europe, according to the Stratfor Analysis.
Fast-forward to the current turmoil in Ukraine, and it is clear that Russia sees its sphere of influence far beyond its current borders. American and EU diplomats are scrambling to send aid to Ukraine and counter Russian influence—hardly the methodical and calculated approach of Russian foreign policy. Many are forecasting a more concentrated Russian effort when the Olympics in Sochi conclude, as noted by New York Times reporter Celestine Bohlen.
“What might be Russia’s options?” Bohlen asked. “Anders Aslund, a senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics in Washington, lists four: a trade war, a gas war, covert actions, and threat of military force … What is clear is that Russia will have a role in Ukraine, overt or covert, no matter what the West has to offer in terms of aid or advice.”
Russia has shown its familiar Cold War hand, using tools such as gas pipelines and trade policies to wield influence. In the face of this clear and consistent instigation, it is time that the United States and EU take seriously their roles in supporting Eastern Europe. Financially and politically (through aid, election monitoring, and more), Eastern Europe needs an alternative to Russian influence, lest Russia is allowed to become the imperial bear it once was.
