I have a lot of respect for @eugene_rumer, the Russia Program director at Carnegie, and this sobering piece is generally good: carnegieendowment.org/2024/04/25/u.s…. Yet I hope pieces does need to repeat "Thanks to a surge in defense orders, the [Russian] economy is estimated to have grown by…
Our essay on "Authoritarian Institutions" for the 2nd edition of the Handbook of New Institutional Economics, an early version: voices.uchicago.edu/ksonin/files/2….
Lyuba Lizunova, 17, a high-school student in Chita, is sentenced to 3.5 years in prison for her anti-war posters. German Nazis executed teenagers for this, while Putin's regime just jails them, but Putin is a true heir.
@cjcmichel I don't think it's that simple. As someone who wrote a book about _Russian_ regionalism in the 1990s (cambridge.org/core/books/ima…) I can say there was a lot on regionalism/federalism/state and a ton written on Chechnya. Georgian intervention was not in 1990s

A literary critic reviews a biography of Pier Paolo Pasolini, an Italian artist and public intellectual, just published in Russian: gorky.media/reviews/na-to/. Even if you don't know Russian, you will understand and enjoy the review.

AST, the major Russian publishing house, stopped selling the Russian translation of Hanya Yanagihara's A Little Life amid the Putin's government crackdown on LGBTQ+ people. Like in my Soviet childhood when all the modern classic, foreign and Russian alike, was censored.
Thank you, @LindseyGrahamSC, for your leadership on supporting Ukraine. And thank you for the timely reminder how wrong the US isolationists were in 1941.
ПОМОЩЬ УКРАИНЕ Для тех, кто следит за принятием законопроекта, в котором даётся 61 миллиард на помощь Украине и 26 миллиардов на помощь Израилю и не понимает, за что уже сегодня, во вторник, проголосовал Сенат США 80-19 и почему это решающее голосование в Сенате, а закон ещё не…
Fantastic investigative work by @teamnavalny led to arrest of Timur Ivanov, a Russian deputy minster of defense. The thoroughly corrupt generals is a pillar of the Putin's regime; massive military spending as means of stealing money was a major reason for the war.

Twenty years ago on this day, April 23, 2004, Presidents of Ukraine and Russia celebrated signing of the Russia-Ukraine Border Treaty. When Putin's says that he has not, personally, signed treaties with 1991 borders with Crimea as a part of Ukraine, he is simply lying.
ПРАВЫЕ И ЛЕВЫЕ Есть у меня разные соображения по поводу фильма "Предатели", но вот это совершенно абстрактное. У меня есть функциональное определение современных "правых" и "левых". Очень упрощенное, но уж очень много ситуаций описывает. Совсем не все, конечно, но многие.…
During her visit, @SobolLubov, an exiled leader of the Russian opposition, a social media star, and a late @navalny's comrade-in-arms, talked to the community and met dozens of students and professors. The interest in Russia - a better, peaceful Russia - is strong at @UChicago.

I've never thought it wouldn't eventually pass. That would've been against everything I know about US politics. Yet every minute of these six months brought unnecessary death and destruction upon Ukraine. Should've been done earlier.

There is no limit to the mental gymnastics my tankies will perform to pretend to themselves they don’t know why all of Russia’s neighbors will fight like hell to keep us out but not one of them will let us in.
@DarthPutinKGB You are brainwashed just like your fans! Putin is crazy but west is 200 times worse and war in Ukraine probably would not happen if there is no EU and USA. As you can see Russia was "problem" because it 2013 offered 20 times bigger help and did not demand their laws on Ukraine 😂
In this particular case it’s the entirely not racist idea that Eastern Europeans cannot protest a government reneging on an election promise (joining in the EU) without it being a CIA op. All my trolls are morons.
Good thread from Rob
Some thoughts about the supplemental bill. This is good news, but it will primarily help Ukraine defend in 2024 and into 2025. Russia will still likely make further gains this year, and it doesn't fix all of Ukraine's issues. It should be seen as one part of a long-term strategy.
@PopovaProf The strategic truth is that Russia is in the European Union’s backyard. The EU has 450 million with a GDP of $18T compared with RU pop of 140 million and $1.8T GDP. Yet we pretend the EU doesn’t exist.
Journalists, I beg of you, retire the "Moscow's backyard" cliche. It's trite, uninformative, and extremely disrespectful. The Baltic states are world leaders in democracy, rule of law, clean government, and well-functioning economies. Ru is eating their dust.
Elite colleges are now reaping the consequences of promoting a pedagogy that trashed the postwar ideal of the liberal university. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

I unfortunately believe we will see more of direct 🇷🇺 sabotage operations in our countries in the years ahead. The frontlines of their war against 🇺🇦 will be wherever they find an opportunity. It’s a new challenge for 🇪🇺🇬🇧 to counter. bbc.com/news/uk-688991…
“Escalation management”
the West’s refusal to allow Ukraine to hit targets in russia is a tacit acceptance that Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second largest city, can be razed to the ground and Ukraine can do nothing about it and I don’t understand how the people who make these decisions sleep at night
Professional news. I will be leaving the Naval War College to take a position with the Russia Team at CNA. I love the War College but am thrilled to be joining another great team. Will move after finishing up my current gig as Senior Advisor to the Chief of Naval Operations.
Here’s the reality: NATO is a defensive Alliance. Its core task is to keep its members safe. #1NATO75
While many think that after a $61bn package (in reality - spread between years) one can forget Russia’s war and come back to other topics - Russia methodically destroys civilian targets in Ukraine. Today, one hospital and four power plants have been hit by Russian Nazis.

It’s evidently been very rewarding to be Deputy Defence Minister of 🇷🇺. But I suspect his arrest now is part of a wider story. It’s not that these excesses of his haven’t been known before. I guess sands are shifting in Moscow.
One year ago, political prisoner Viktar Babaryka was taken from prison to the hospital showing signs of a severe beating. Instead of allowing access to family members & lawyers, the regime has been hiding him ever since. We haven't heard from him in a year & must fear the worst.
“Putin has prepared for this. But the scale of recent Russian losses for limited gains, and the embarrassment of not being able to stop Ukrainian attacks on Russian territory, means that he still lacks an obvious route to victory,” writes @LawDavF on.ft.com/4dfXL5u
