The Center for Analysis of Strategies and Technologies (CAST) is pleased to announce the release of a new book, "The Allies", edited by Konstantin Makienko.

The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the military, economic, demographic and natural potential of Russia's allies in the Collective Security Treaty Organization - Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan. Their foreign policy and relations with Russia are examined. Hypotheses are formulated regarding the value of each of these states for Russia and an assessment is given of the level of their allied loyalty.
