As well, it identifies the key challenges involved in the consideration and implementation of these two goals.  The Situation of the Russian Speaking Population in Central Asia: To the Historiography of the Problem (Post-Soviet Continent; Year of publication: 2023 Author: Марина Авимская Corporate author: ИНСТИТУТ СТРАН СНГ At present, the position of the Russian and Russian-speaking population is one of the most important problems in the domestic and foreign policy of the states - the former Soviet republics of the USSR and a significant aspect of their relationship with the Russian Federation.
