The Islamic Republic of Iran’s attempt to bolster its power among some Asian countries such as India has involved a variety of political and economical decisions. While it has tried to improve its influence among the Indian Muslim communities, it has found the energy as the best way to grow its relations with the Indian government to make strategic ties. Although Iran has followed these policies for many years, it seems that it does not have its previous influences among the Indian Muslims. In addition, Iran’s oil and gas production besides its energy relations have been limited due to some internal and international factors such as energy sanctions imposed by U.S. The present study attempts to analyze the factors behind Iran’s undermined role in India.

In this study, the author deals with factors which have contributed to civil wars and public discontents in the Republic of Congo. The basic hypotheses of the text are the following: the conflict in the Republic of Congo was causes by failed democratization process in 1991 – 1997; and the failed democratization process was influenced by a number of internal and external factors including (in)direct intervention of France, insufficient support from international community, and internal political clashes based mostly on ethnoregional platforms. While the first hypothesis arises primarily from internal political realities, including the rule of strong personality, heritage of Communism, and elimination of relevant opposition forces as well as inability to reach a true national consensus, the second deals with political cliché of many African countries which are more or less deponent on foreign economic and political support, especially from the side of former colonial powers.

This article analyzes the current state of the mineral resources of the U.S. base, structural changes in the mining sector in the U.S., to study the main trends and prospects of commodity dependence, issues related to the implementation of the policy of diversification of sources of energy raw materials, as well as questions aimed at reducing energy intensity of U.S. GDP. The article presents data on the resource base, the dynamics and projections of production, imports, parallel to the existing energy bases – internal and external, research the main macro-economic activities to determine the level of energy security, the reasons for the reduction of fuel imports from the Middle East and at the same time slacken one's pace of development the mining industry in the United States itself. The fuel imports reduction can’t guarantee of energy security until as the U.S. economy is not to choose the road for energy efficiency and alternative energy sources. The problem solution to achieve via a three interrelated goals the long-term energy policy, namely the reconstruction of all components the energy infrastructure, and the transition to a more economical use of primary energy resources, expanding the profitable use of alternative energy sources.

Crude oil and natural gas, as energy carriers forming the basis of European Union countries energy mix, are nowadays at the heart of policy measurements aiming at lowering their consumption with respect to environmental and security threats associated with them. In this article we used Granger causality test in order to examine whether there exists the possibility of negative consequence related to the implementation of such policy for economic development of the EU countries. Based on results we conclude the persistence of continuing existence of environmental risks in relation to restarting economic growth. The absence of more significant influence of oil and gas consumption on economic growth can be perceived positively.

The article reveals peculiarities of ecological and economic analysis of the process of oil production, as one of the most important components energy component of economic development. The development of modern energy is the basis for enhancing the social and economic living standards of the population and competitiveness, which depends on economically sound and safer production processes, distribution and use of energy products. It was highlighted the critical factors that pose a threat to the environment and energy security of the country as an example of local development, set oil production a negative impact on the natural territorial complex and set sequence of growth the negative impact on the environment of the region taking into account the economic damage caused by pollution of the local territory. It was justify the use of impact-integrated techniques of ecological and economic assessment of the impact of the effects of oil production on the environment and public health in the field of direct production and transportation of oil.

The aim of the paper is to outline the interests of the European Union and Russia in the area of energy. The paper is focused on measures leading to strengthening the EU energy safety, clarification of the energy vector of foreign policy of Russian Federation determined by the ambition of Russia to become an energy superpower and on highlighting different understanding of diversification of supplies of energy carriers by both parties. However, such different understanding should not lead to significant weakening of their interdependence in the future. Relations EU – Russia are supplemented with problems of source securing in their energy dialogue; in this context special attention is paid to the Caspian region and Central Asia. Examples of concurrence in the interests of the EU and Russia are mentioned as well as examples of collisions in the interests in the area of energy.

The nergy security of the U.S.A is, after military security, the second most important issue related to the pursuit of national interests. Following World War II, the U.S.A became heavily dependent on the import of oil and increasingly dependent on the import of gas. Since the oil embargo imposed by OPEC in 1973, the U.S.A has been dominated by a view that this dependence should decrease. A possible way out has been reduced consumption and control of the most important oil reserves – this approach builds on Carter’s Doctrine. Today, as a result of the country’s unilateral policy, its military control spans almost the whole area of the Middle East; yet, other countries are more efficient in trade. The solution resides in a multilateral approach to the country’s security, respect for the legitimate interests of others and collaboration in the area of security.
