The research line “Eurasia” deals with the security and defence issues of the region stretching from Europe’s eastern neighbourhood to the Far East. The CSDS’ interests include the Balkans, the Caucasus, Ukraine and Russia as well as South Asia (in particular Afghanistan, India and Pakistan), East Asia (China and Japan), but also other regions such as Central Asia and South-East Asia. The CSDS pays a particular attention to Russia’s foreign and defence policy as well as China’s emergence on the global scene.
