- Together with Robert D. Kaplan, De Balie will discuss the relationship between the West and Russia. The war in Ukraine shows how important both ideology and power relations are. What is exactly the current relationship between NATO, EU, and Russia? And the bigger question: how do we deal with Russia?

DEALING WITH RUSSIA
With this four-part program series, we want to provide in-depth analysis of current affairs and facilitate nuanced debate, thus making complex material accessible. How have Russian-Western relations changed since the collapse of the Soviet Union, how does Russia view its relations with former Soviet States, and what motivates the EU, NATO and the USA?
I've just come across your channel, and it is a shame I didn't find it earlier. You invite some of the most interesting speakers from the globe. Great conversation and very interesting to hear questions answered by one of the US' most influential foreign policy writers.
Thank you, beautiful smart people ❤
Run into here a bit late
With cost of “black gold” at 15-23 dollars per barrel, the USSR economy collapsed, and the sovok itself collapsed, and the "golden" horde ("russia") budget can only be fulfilled only with oil price at $ 42.4 and higher
One of characteristic features of authoritarian leaderships is, it has a very large percentage of unpredictablity.
"Let us begin with this evident fact: Muscovy does not belong at all to Europe, but to Asia. It follows that judging Muscovy and the Muscovites by our European standards is a mistake to be avoided."-gonzague de reynold, 19501 In methodological terms, one should de-Europeanise any analysis of Muscovy policy.- thomas gomart, 20062 "
Because your west is of lower bred
Putin changed the Russian Army into a Russian Legion with combat troops signing contracts much along the lines of the French Foreign Legion but much shorter terms. Legions are great for small actions, but invading a nation and occupying it requires an Army. A legion is not up to the task.
Good point, that was my sense exactly.
interesting chat! appreciated 👍
Really fascinating discussion
Now that's t.v. worth watching. Only two suggestions: 1. Lose the "serious" reading from the unknown actress 2. Resurrect Patrice O'neil and include him on the panel. If resurrection is not an option Bill Burr is also a strong commentator.
the sweds where the best dieselsubmariners :-)) yes i very well remember whisky on the rocks and the killing of olof palme....

Putin was in his strongest position pre-invasion when he had Ukraine surrounded. He could have believably threatened just about anything and NATO was in disarray.
yes but humanitarian outcry pulled him into ukraine he doesn't have much control over his own destiny.
I love how americans are convinced that their democracy is the golden standard and everyone shold follow or else
It kind of is
It is not a question of "how to deal" with Russia, but simply the question how we should listen and try to understand Russia. And then ofcourse; To take what they say seriously. Non in the West did, but Russia doesn't bluff. We got what we deserved, because of our ideologicaly possesed, totaly insane and even childish "leaders" in the West
Excellent discussion! If you're considering spending 2 hours watching this, ignore the other comments and just watch it. My quess is the other commenters are morons, bots, or absolute fucking idiots. This is a great discussion. Whether you agree with it or not.

54:20 He got away with 99 apartment bombings?
the host seems to be unprepared
These De Balie guys quoted somebody as say "Putin was a nasty person". Well you can also refer to Biden and his "crime family" in nasty dealings in Ukraine when he was VP. When a journal goes down this personality bashing route, the conversation loses all analytic value and you can expect to learn nothing objective from it.
Behold the armchair generals in their natural habitat.
i want someone to get peter zeihan, robert kaplan, ian bremmer and george freidmen all in the same room for 24 hours with reclining clairs and beer and livestream the results.
and watching Russian-Ukraine war like it's sport match tv show
they are all just a bunch of jewish transatlantic wokesters not much good will come out of this no american politicians that doesn't see fighting wokism as a priority in us politics is worth something. all trash talkers
@@divineantiwokegangster did that make you feel smarter than you really are?
@@oasisnova no i am right bill maher george friedman, kaplan etc are transatlantic jewish wokesters
if you only succeeded in thinking as much as you do in name calling
Horrible conflict indeed. But how about the wars that the US started in Iraq, Libya? Carpet bombardments of Yugoslavia? 20 years of disastrous campaign in Afghanistan and even more disastrous pullout! But hey, that's different, right?!
Right, each case is different. This discussion concerns Russia and you are trying to change the topic
Moscow horde´s war record :-
1856 defeated by Britain and France
1905 defeated by Japan
1917 defeated by Germany
1920 defeated by Poland, Finland, Estonia and all Baltic states
1939 defeated by Finland
1969 defeated by China
1989 defeated by Afghanistan
1989 defeated in the Cold War.
1996 defeated by Chechnya
2022 defeated by Ukraine
WW2 won USA/Britain , meanwhile Stalin's officers were shot or sent to the Gulags. Millions went to the Gulags, including Solzhenitsyn
Moscow's only victories come from invading smaller countries :-
a) Hungary 1956
b) Czechoslovakia 1968
c) Moldova 1992
d) Georgia 2008
All countries are smaller than Russia.
SYRIA also, and the nazi Russian Wagner afrikakorps in Africa
Deez nuts
The interviewer can't make a full sentence without 36 umms, but more importantly he's extremely biased. A disappointment
US has a 30 Trillion $ Debt. Japan 10. Professor Michael Hudson explains how the free lunch US has had for decades is about to end, much quicker than even he explains.
Sorry Robert Kaplan, Putin say publically right in front of John Maccain as far back as 2008 (in Romania if I recalled) that Ukraine being in NATO was not acceptable to Russia. Putin had not evolved from that position.
Ukraine was neither in NATO nor scheduled to be incorporated. So try harder, the audience of this channel is too well informed to fall for your tiktok-level comment...
Wow only 4 comment, well actually none more accurate, its because this guy is being hypocrite and bias in most of hi life, i came to see what kind of comment reactions to his B.S., honestly I wasn't surprised
Puts some facts to your bs opinions
He is a real hypocrite, leaving out a lot of facts and twisting the truth. Putin was a very "nasty" person? How about Cheney, Albright, Hillary, Rumsfeld, Rice, Sleepy Joe, etc. etc. They expect Putin to be nice to them when they have shown how nasty and aggressive they have been and still are??? Putin so bad and these dudes so so good! They are just upset because at every turn Putin has check-mated them. He admitted that he couldn't imagine that Putin would take military action against Ukraine! He must have advised his masters wrongly then.
You should have a TH-cam channel to express your fascinating point of view.
Kaplan’s analysis isn’t rooted in reality. This is unconditional US worship and irrational Russia bashing which borders on the comical.
