摘要:The interdependence is definitely the most common concept used to describe the relationsbetween the EU and Russia. Nevertheless, despite their obvious interdependence, there are still a series ofdebates in literature which usually arise when it comes to describing its typology and its implications,especially in the analysis at the Member States level. Moreover, given the complexity and variety of relationsbetween the EU-27 and the Russian Federation, the present study aims to outline a comprehensive picture ofthe interdependence between the two actors at a regional level by conducting a comparative analysis of theEuropean Union Member States according to their interdependence with Russia, considering energy as themain aspect of their relations. In this sense, the scientific approach will focus on a comparative analysis of themutual energy dependencies between the member states and Russia, in order to characterize theinterdependence typologies, as well as to identify the distribution of cost and advantages
