Thirty years ago, in 1991, the Soviet Union, founded in 1922, disappeared, giving birth to fifteen new states, located between the Baltic Sea and the Pamir mountain range, which went their own way. How many of these republics have succeeded? How much real influence does Moscow exert over them? What role do NATO and the European Union play in this very complicated economic and political maze?
