description Following the collapse of the USSR, the post-Soviet states applied their foreign policy and solved economic and military problems in cooperation with one another. They established the Commonwealth of the Independent States and the other integration associations, both within and beyond the CIS.

The authors believe that the main cause was a short-foresighted policy of the Russian leadership under the presidency of Boris Yeltsin and the reluctance of Commonwealth states to be bound by obligations.
