Abstract:

It is time for the U.S. to launch a coordinated policy effort in the Black Sea area to gain support for addressing such pressing issues as the rise of Iran, WMD proliferation, cooperation in the war on terrorism, and energy security, but the U.S. also needs to tread lightly, offering support where possible and backing off where necessary.
