This monograph is an in-depth study of the Russian presence in Eastern and South-Eastern Europe. Ukraine and the Balkans represent the two key focal points of expansionist policy in this region. The work addresses both historical and contemporary dimensions. Geopolitical developments and the relationships forged with Russia make the book both engaging and thought-provoking.Events, conflicts, wars and diplomacy are viewed through the perspective of an Albanian – a Balkan author. The Balkans has always been, and continues to be, the region that most abundantly produces history. Alongside facts, data and testimonies, the book brings together in a coherent manner the concepts, causes and consequences of geopolitical and historical developments influenced by Russia and other Great Powers. Rarely can one find studies that provide arguments and counter-arguments for every event. The author pays particular attention to the Balkan conflicts and Russia's interventions, with the strategic aim of gaining access to the Adriatic.Readers, students and researchers alike will find in this volume a profound and scholarly source of information.
