O Russia, Where Are Thou?

In his new op-ed, Vladimir Putin once again undermines Ukrainian independence and sends strong revisionist signals. This adds up to the tension that has built up since Russia's new National Security Strategy published a peculiar document written in a militaristic and revisionist language only two weeks after the Biden-Putin summit in Switzerland. In an attempt to unpack this stability-distorting dynamic, we speak with Gregory Feifer, executive director of the Institute of Current World Affairs, author of "Russians, The Great Gamble and Spy Handler", and a former NPR Moscow Correspondent. Gregory Feifer also co-hosts "The Cable", a podcast with Johnathan Katz from GMF and the Transatlantic Working Group in Washington D.C.
