Russian military intervention in Syria is provoking Western puzzlement about Vladimir Putin’s strategic intentions. In a disruptive world which is no longer defined by East-West dynamics, how should we interpret Russia’s strategic behavior and the inner logic of Mr. Putin’s regime?
The Annual Lecture of the Pierre du Bois Foundation welcomes renowned political scientist Ivan Krastev, chairman of the Centre for Liberal Strategies and founding board member of the European Council on Foreign Relations. He will explore the complexities of Russian contemporary politics, helping us to making informed assumptions about the Kremlin’s decision making.
