Abstract

Review of two articles on Canadian-Russian relations: The Fragile Authoritarians: China, Russia, and Canadian Foreign Policy by Leigh Sarty in International Journal. December 2020. Vol. 75. Issue 4. P. 614-628; and Open Letter: An Action Brief for Canadian-Russian Bilateral Relations by Gilles Breton and Piotr Dutkiewicz in Russia in Global Affairs (in Russian). Available at: https://globalaffairs.ru/articles/kanadsko-rossijskie-otnosheniya/ (Date of publication: 05.11.2020). Accessed 05.12.2020.

The reviewer underlines that although different by their scope and outlook these articles are common in one thing – both propose to reassess Canadian-Russian relations that took a major turn for the worse in 2014 because of Russia’s conflict with Ukraine over Crimea. The review compares the underlying assumptions of the first article with ideas and worldview associated with the former Ambassador of Canada to the USSR Robert Ford and welcomes a work plan for re-instatement of a political dialogue between Canada and Russia, advanced in the second article. However, the reviewer questions the practical applicability of an action plan in the time involving a new aggravation of relations between the West and Russia due to Alexei Navalny controversy.
