Summary/Abstract: On October 23-25, 2013 the Aleksanteri Institute of the University of Helsinki organised its 13th Annual Aleksanteri Conference under the title ‘Russia and the World’. At the conference directing its focus on Russian foreign policy as well as on Russia’s standing in current international affairs the Estonian School of Diplomacy (ESD) and the Estonian Center of Eastern Partnership (ECEAP) convened the panel ‘Russia, EU`s Eastern Partnership and Vilnus Summit’ . This collection publishes the three presentations updated by taking into consideration the Vilnius Summit results. The papers ask questions about Eastern Partnership’s future. The challenges this policy is about to face both within the difficult processes of AA/DCFTA (Association Agreement/ Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Agreement) implementation as well as within the context of the rapidly changing international relations.
