About the talk:
There is sharp polarization amongst Western analysts about Putin카지노 게임 컬렉션™s objectives in the Ukraine war. Some argue the Russian invasion was a response to a perceived threat to Russian security from the West, which means that if the West acts to lessen that threat, the war can be brought to an end. Others argue that the war is driven by forces structurally embedded in the Russian state and society 카지노 게임 컬렉션“ and can only be contained by force. Can these two positions be reconciled? Where does the truth lie?
