Lea Ypi in her beautiful article argues, together with Kant, that the pursuit of complete victory in Europe today is a betrayal of reason and highly dangerous for the future of Europe.

Kotkin tries every barrel in his Russian-Roulette style article. The only silver bullet is possible recalibration of Russian nationalist character! Smart, but requires a set of conditions that does not exist. The US has a roulette of its own to survive…foreignaffairs.com/russian-federa…
Inimitable Sergey Radchenko is conducting a global webminar on X about his and Charap article. This is the best one can use new technology for!

This is a total misunderstanding of how expertise works. An expert is someone who knows the issue, not the one who toes the party line. The logic in this thread looks like it's taken straight out of a Lubyanka manual

Must read, and the two camps are formed, divided by the title of Charap-Radchenko’s article. Someday we will learn more on the Russian motives. foreignaffairs.com/ukraine/talks-…
It does appear that Russia and Ukraine were seriously and earnestly negotiating an end to the war, which could have come as early as late April 2022 if the talks succeeded. They failed. We tried to understand why.
Great talk about a brilliant book. Recommended!
It is finally here. The long-awaited biography of Zhou Enlai by the preeminent diplomatic historian Chen Jian. So looking forward to reading a scholarly examination of this exalted yet enigmatic Chinese leader. Thank goodness the semester ends next week.
Historian never stops learning. Learned today from the interview with Alexander Stubb that Finland had fought “more than 30 wars and skirmishes with Russia since the 1300s.” Given the date of Finland’s independence in Dec 1917, it is a major news to me.
A top EU court has struck down sanctions against Russian oligarchs Mikhail Fridman and Petr Aven, citing insufficient evidence they backed Putin's war against Ukraine. The ruling's a major blow to the EU’s sanctions regime against Moscow: ft.com/content/5cc41a…

Or take this. We already expect a war in Asia. We are doing our best to deter it but, really, what's happening in Ukraine has an unquantifiable impact on the potential war in Asia. We don't know what the Chinese are making of it.
@VladislavZubok1 Depends on how you count. As a province of Sweden, Finland participated in the 30 years war and you can say that Finnish troops stopped in the outskirts of Vienna.
@VladislavZubok1 Yes, for goodness sake, he is just producing reasoned and informed policy arguments, which you can debate in a similarly reasoned and thoughtful way. To profile him as 'vatnik' is low. Note, he, like most who argue that view, strongly supports getting this aid pkg to UKR asap.
@VladislavZubok1 And in the case of reimbursements essentially they are making us jump through humiliating hoops before they pay back the interest free loans we have given them! Ridiculous system
I'm increasingly convinced that having to register anew as a 'supplier' or 'vendor' anytime one gives a guest lecture in order to get reimbursed for expenses and/or to be paid an honorarium is something dreamt by universities to decrease payments we as academics are in fact due

@VladislavZubok1 The past is indeed malleable !!
Here is a data point for the "NATO enlargement was structured as an anti-Russia project" thesis. Yes, one can say it's foresight, but one can also say that it's self-fulfilling prophecy.
Every time I re-read this conversation between Walesa and Clinton, I can't help but think that Walesa had a lot of foresight.
Leyendo el libro de Zubok (@VladislavZubok1) sobre los últimos años de la URSS
An incredibly detailed account by @VladislavZubok1 of the actions and theory that drove the reformism of the 80s and what followed. Particularly sharp detail on Gorbachev’s belief in himself as a Leninist and a rejection of many lazy assumptions as to why the SU collapsed.
Happy to belatedly announced that RAISING RAFFI is out this June. It has some very solid blurbs and is also just 240 pages. People have reported not even noticing that they read it. You can pre-order at the n+1 store, or wherever fine books are sold. shop.nplusonemag.com/products/raisi…
@VladislavZubok1 I'd say the West has squandered quite a bit of its soft power. That doesn't excuse autocrats, but it's definitely a factor.
@DrRadchenko Hm…not sure you can expect people to be heroes. Easier said than done
@DrRadchenko I think you are wrong. Where do you get stuff like "genuinely popular with the meek, slavish populace"? I mean Russian society is deeply sick, but not in this way.
