Carol Saivetz, senior advisor to the Security Studies Program at MIT and research associate of Harvard’s Davis Center for Russian and Eurasian Studies discusses Moscow’s responses to the latest crises in the surrounding states arguing that after years of promoting or taking advantage of instability in the post-Soviet space, Russia, now, seems more interested in stability - as long as it is pro-Russian. This seminar is a part of the EURASIA TALKS seminar series, organized by the Area Studies Program of Karabuk University and the Eurasian Studies Program of Middle East Technical University with the support of Dünyanın Ortası.
