Abstract: This article examines the National Strategies on Artificial Intelligence (NSAIs) adopted across the post-Soviet space and explores how the foreign policy preferences of adopting states have accounted for these policies or lack thereof. We argue that the AI approaches of these countries reflect broader patterns of foreign policy preferences and cooperation in the region. EU members Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, along with potential EU members Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine, have been influenced by AI approaches and discourses of the European Union. Other post-Soviet countries have undertaken AI strategies in line with their unique foreign policy directions. We also find that, on this specific policy angle, Russia has little influence, even amongst its former satellites.
