Michael Kimmage - Putin's War in Ukraine Ushers in a New Age of Global Instability and Confrontation

In Collisions, Michael Kimmage, traces the origins of the Russia-Ukraine war. He unpicks the development of Ukraine and Russia's fractious relationship back to the end of the Cold War, through the central events that led to Vladimir Putin seizing Crimea in 2014 and, eight years later, initiating the most intensive and widescale military confrontation of the post-WWII era. This conflict ushers in a new age of global instability, and a collision between Russia and the Western alliance that is far hotter than confrontations during the Cold War. ---------- Michael Kimmage is a professor of history at the Catholic University of America. Michael is author of books and articles about international affairs, Soviet and Russian politics, and the European-American relationship. From 2014 to 2016, he served on the Secretary's Policy Planning Staff at the U.S. Department of State. He is a senior non-resident associate at the Centre for Strategic and International Studies. ---------- CHAPTERS: 00:01:55 The fractious relationship with Russia never really went away 00:04:21 External peace and internal Terror during the interwar period 00:07:18 Impact of Putin's speech at the 2007 Munich Security Conference 00:10:25 Were the signs of impending conflict accumulating in 2021? 00:14:36 Putin has used distraction and lying to fool West since 2014 00:16:57 The stages of Putinism with increasing internal repression 00:23:35 Grienance and victimhood that underpins Putin's worldview 00:29:24 The European contradiction - wealth but low defence investment 00:32:04 Lack of strategy and a concept of victory among the allies 00:34:29 Is there a chance in Europe's attitude to the war and Ukraine 00:40:05 Is 'Bidenism' just as risky for Ukraine as 'Trumpism'? 00:43:44 Is there a problem in Washington with the idea of taking Crimea? 00:49:35 Are we paying too little attention to weakness in Russian economy? ---------- LINKS:   / mkimmage     / michael-kimmage-66654a5   https://www.csis.org/people/michael-k... https://www.wilsoncenter.org/person/m... https://history.catholic.edu/faculty-... https://global.oup.com/academic/produ... https://www.gmfus.org/find-experts/mi... ---------- ARTICLES: https://www.foreignaffairs.com/author... https://www.americanpurpose.com/autho... ---------- BOOKS: Collisions: The Origins of the War in Ukraine and the New Global Instability (2024) The Abandonment of the West: The History of an Idea in American Foreign Policy (2020) ---------- SUPPORT THE CHANNEL: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconc...   / siliconcurtain   ---------- LINKS:   / general_ben   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Hodges https://cepa.org/author/ben-hodges/ https://warsawsecurityforum.org/speak... ---------- TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND: Save Ukraine https://www.saveukraineua.org/ Superhumans - Hospital for war traumas https://superhumans.com/en/ UNBROKEN - Treatment.
