Pivot Off-Balance?
The U.S. rebalance toward East Asia is an effective strategy to unite diplomacy, economics and trade, and security in a critical and fast-growing region of the world.

Carnegie’s Douglas Paal spoke to RT’s Worlds Apart about U.S. foreign policy challenges in the wake of President Obama’s first term promises. Although the president did not mention previous initiatives to “reset Russia” and “rebalance Asia” in his recent foreign policy speech at West Point, Paal reaffirmed the importance of the president’s focus on East Asia. “Rebalancing is still the policy,” said Paal, adding that overall it was an effective strategy to unite diplomacy, economics and trade, and security, “in an effort to make sure that America puts a proper investment where the world is growing the fastest.”

- What Should We Take From Andrey Melnichenko’s Essay in the Economist?Commentary
Andrey Melnichenko’s essay offers no answer to the fundamental question of how, under any kind of negotiated settlement, Europe can protect itself from the Russian ressentiment that is inevitable in all scenarios except for an outright victory for Putin.
