CIS & Baltic Periodicals 〜CIS諸国とバルト諸国の出版物 (UDB-CIS)

Monitoring today’s news in the countries of the former Soviet Union demands immediate access to a wide range of important publications.

The result is content - rich in research value, without the superfluous material freely accessible on the web.
