About this listen
RFA’s Luna Pham visits a restaurant in Vientiane where Laotians can rekindle memories of Russia where many studied in their youth when Laos was a major recipient of Soviet aid.
Russia’s ties with East and Southeast Asia go back decades, and while those connections weakened with the end of the Cold War, they never disappeared. Now, with Russia’s increasing isolation following its invasion of Ukraine, the relationships have taken on greater significance.
In Bear East, RFA examines, country-by-country, how those links have evolved in terms of the defense trade, as well as government, business and people-to-people ties. Read the complete series at https://en.rfa.org/BearEast.
