Russia's Contribution as a Partner in the War on Terrorism
ISBN: 9781505874976 / Angielski / Miękka / 68 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Until the end of the Cold War, terrorism was a phenomenon practically unknown in the Soviet Union.

The demise of the USSR also weakened the organizations responsible for the security and law and order of Russia-a phenomenon rarely understood in the West. Russia and the United States are the priority targets for many radical Islamic groups. The two countries should be able,...

Studies have demonstrated that choices in the use of language convey information that goes beyond the content of the words themselves.
