- In today's interconnected world, minor events in the world's lesser-known
regions can have major geopolitical consequences. According to former Eurasia
Program committee member Robert Kaiser, this is precisely what happened when
Estonia, a tiny Baltic state, decided to relocate a Soviet war memorial that
for many years had stood in its capital city. Kaiser argues that moving the
Bronze Soldier of Tallinn had the effect not only of chilling Estonia's
relations with Russia still further but also of reviving cold war thinking and
rhetoric in the European Union and the United States.
