About this ebook

Russian Energy Leverage examines how Russia strategically uses its vast energy resources as a tool for foreign policy, influencing global energy security and economic stability. The book reveals how Russia's control over fossil fuel exports, particularly through pipeline politics, allows it to exert political influence and gain economic advantages. One intriguing aspect is the dependency this creates for importing nations, which can make them vulnerable to political pressure and supply disruptions.

The book progresses by first establishing a historical and economic context, tracing Russia's evolution as a major energy exporter. It then analyzes the strategic deployment of pipeline projects and Russia’s diverse export strategies, before finally investigating the economic vulnerabilities associated with resource dependence for both Russia and its energy partners.

By bridging political science, economics, and energy studies, the book offers a comprehensive interdisciplinary perspective. It reveals how Russia's actions have reshaped the global energy landscape, prompting responses from other major players.
