Abstract
This article is a survey of key foreign policy issues in the Black Sea Region (BSR) which will confront the next United States (US) administration. The article argues that interrelated issues of security, energy and political development make the region a critical, but often overlooked, area for US policymakers. Increasing regional integration, and encouraging pro‐Western and democratic political development is key to resolving the security issues and unleashing the economic potential of the region. However, this is a difficult task given the political, historical and cultural diversity of the region, ongoing ‘frozen conflicts’, and the newly empowered Russian Federation.
