Analysis of the Current Situation and Future Prospects of US-Russia Relations
The US-Russia relations have deteriorated in recent years to the lowest level since the end of the Cold War.The fundamental reason is that there are intensified differences and contradictions between the U.S.'unipolar dominance and"America first"strategy and multi-polar and polycentrism advocated by Russia,between the liberalism advocated by the U.S.and the conservatism pursued by Russia,between the different understandings of post Yalta system by the U.S.and Russia.Many structural differences and contradictions have intensified.Under the background of unprecedented changes and great power competition in today's world,in the international landscape of rising in the east and falling in the west,with strong US and weak Russia coexisting,the intense game surrounding the Ukraine crisis makes it difficult for Russia-US relations to fundamentally improve in the short term.The U.S.will make the most of its comprehensive strength advantages to implement a strategic squeeze on Russia and Russia will also use skillful tactics in the game of great powers,striving to put itself in a strategically advantageous position and pursue the maximization of Russia's interests.
