Most former members of the Warsaw Pact have become solid democracies, but questions remain regarding some nations. Many of these questions center around civil rights, the status of minorities, and the extent to which basic democratic principles define the electoral and governing process. Russia – which remains the second-strongest military power after the United States – constitutes a special case. Moscow’s foreign policy alternates between overtures to the West and open brinkmanship. This issue of Hampton Roads International Security Quarterly concentrates on the political situation in Eastern Europe and Russia, with a special focus on US policy toward this region.\r\n',

Pacific nations held a similar conference in Phuket in October, and quickly released the summary of proceedings. The United States government’s National Security Council released the US strategy for combating transnational organized crime, classifying TOC as a national security threat. The US strategy – released in July – places great emphasis on international cooperation as well. \r\nThe complete text of all three documents is reprinted in this issue of Hampton Roads International Security Quarterly.
