Council for US-Russia Relations
The United States and the Russian Federation’s bilateral collaboration promises an unmatched degree of economic growth and advancements in science/technology fields, and global security. This relationship is critically important to both our countries and to the global community broadly.
Council for US-Russia Relations works with our members and government partners in support of inter-regional ties and the broader bilateral relationship.
Despite the significant and legitimate disagreements complicating US-Russian relations, there are areas of clear US-Russian mutual interest that could help improve relations. A sustained and broad-based dialogue on constructive common-interest cooperation between the United States and Russia may help to strengthen commitment to, and vest both sides in, a more stable and constructive bilateral relationship. While our governments may not always agree, pursuing cooperation in areas of clear interest alignment benefits both our two countries and brings greater stability to the global community.
The Council’s main programmatic activity is the Russian American Pacific Partnership (RAPP) bilateral forum. RAPP engages regional and federal governments with the private sector to improve trans-Pacific opportunity and maintain constructive relations. Since 1995, the RAPP forum has organized major annual meetings affording dialogue across a wide mutual-interest agenda. Each RAPP meeting has produced a Summary Report that includes detailed recommendations formulated by the collective attendees advancing cooperative initiatives, expanding commerce, and strengthening relations.
Our 25 years of experience provides the credibility necessary to forge bilateral consensus strengthening U.S.-Russia relations.
