Visegrad countries and Russia
During the communist rule in the past, all countries of Visegrad region had been the part of former Soviet block. At that period many key links were created and some of them have been transformed into current relations and cooperation - especially on fields of trade, energy, energy infrastructure and foreign and security policy. Between the most recent issues discussed between V4 and Moscow one can identify U.S. anti-missile shield in Czech republic and Poland, gas supplies to Slovakia, as well as Nabucco and South Stream pipelines talks with Hungary.
