When Wieslaw Radzieciak took office as the mayor of Lesniowice in the gently rolling farmland of southeastern Poland 26 years ago, the Soviet garrisons that dotted the region were a stark reminder of which superpower was in control.

... just two of a whole series of negative effects from large budget deficits. This, however, is not very likely, but the possibility should be kept in mind and should spur policymakers to broaden the production base of the economy. Marek Belka, head of Poland's central bank, raised an interesting point at the Gaidar economic conference in Moscow last week. He said a country that is overly dependent on commodity exports will suffer a so-called brain drain. Skilled people leave the country in large numbers...

... Western Europe," Kruglov said. The state-run company reduced deliveries to Europe by 10 percent for several days because of cold weather and is now fully delivering contracted volumes, RIA-Novosti reported, citing Kruglov.

Twenty years ago, Russian reformers learned about the experience of macroeconomic reforms...

... strategy polarized the country at a cultural level in a way that was never fully resolved under the tsars. Likewise, the expansion of the Russian state under Catherine the Great may have added to Russia's European reputation, but — in relation to Poland at least — it incorporated into the empire a disruptive population that was always hard to manage. Such contradictions were also present in the 19th and early 20th centuries, when the territory of the Russia kept expanding while the divisions...

... in the wake of recent anti-government protests, as a survey said Wednesday that only 26 percent of respondents trust the government, down from 39 percent in 2011. The figure places Russia 17 percent below the world average, on par with Spain, Italy, Poland and France, according to the Edelman Trust Barometer that surveyed 30,000 people in 25 countries. Growing mistrust of government officials is an emerging trend across the world, and "the falling trust in authorities and nongovernmental institutions...

... from the current 55 bcm to 60 bcm … within 10 years," Maslichenko said. "The residential sector could produce the highest savings." Ukraine spends three times as much energy per $1 of its economic output as its Western neighbor Poland , according to specialist agency Enerdata . Experts say much of its problem is that it has done little in 20 years of independence to change the Soviet-era energy infrastructure.

... intercept them during their initial boost phase. There are several problems with Rogozin's argument. First, the U.S. Standard Missile 3 interceptors — or SM-3, which the administration of President Barack Obama plans to deploy in Romania and Poland — have ranges too short to reach Russia's intercontinental ballistic missiles at their start position, much less in flight. This restriction applies to advanced versions of the SM-3 interceptor that might appear in 2018 or 2020. Thus, Russia's...

... overanalyze that and deduce that's a profound threat to their status as a national power." Recently, the Russians have complained bitterly about plans to station elements of the U.S. missile defense system close to them, in NATO member states Poland, Romania and Turkey, from where radars could presumably see into Russian territory. On the American side, there is some anxiety about cooperating with the Russians, even though cooperation on European missile defense was favored by Robert Gates...
