Asia Pacific Defence Reporter Vol.41, No. 1, Feb 2015 , pp.62-66 (9) Summary: Even though this expression is better known in connection with the US (as the Obama administration has characterized its policy toward the Asia-Pacific region), it is also a good description of the Kremlin's new direction. As the de-facto civil war in Ukraine continues, the regime of U.S and EU sanctions against Russia tightens and this, in turn, makes Moscow look to those in the world who show more support and loyalty. These are mostly found in Asia. China, India, Iran, Pakistan, Turkey are among those countries whose significance for Russia is growing. The Kremlin has three big things to keep them interested as trading partners: big reserves of fossil fuels and other wealth of the land, some high technologies including nuclear and aeronautics and advanced weapons.
