Russian intel driving “new” strategy (take SE) is wrong & won’t result in “win” & strategic goal. There’s a reason why RU hasn’t been able 2 fully take Mariupol/most cities in Donbas after 2 months & it’s the same reason when hey tried & failed 2 take Mariupol in 2014/15 a🧵1/8
Mariupol 2014/15 ordinary LOCAL Russian speaking Ukrainians (workers at plants) organized community patrol groups 2 protect their city! Oligarchs backed & the UKR army (with help of volunteer battalions) defended. But it was ordinary local folks who defended what was “theirs” 2/8
When war began in 2014 median recruit was a local (from south East) male Russian speaker. Majority of volunteers came from SE regions. When we visited Ukrainian controlled Donetsk it was Eerie because all local men of fighting age were absent they volunteered 2 defend Donbas. 3/8

I am puzzled by political scientists unwillingness to accept that maybe the surveys are not wrong & that maybe, in fact, Russians did rally around the flag & moved in their willingness to back the war once it started. 🧵1/3
We should understand how motivated reasoning works & the activation of affective identity. State TV propaganda has been focused on affective ID & tapped into underlying beliefs among Russians that Ukrainians although a brotherly nation is one lower in rank. 2/3
& 1 that should submit 2 Russian demands. Humiliation of 1st weeks only further allowed 4 formation of collective beliefs about blame attribution. Once losses experienced instead of blaming themselves Russians find blame outside of their in-group & blame “lower” Ukrainians. 3/3

Shocked by news that @PolandMFA & @RobertCzyzewsk1 laid off Kyiv-based Ukrainian personnel of #PolishInstitute without any support. I hope that this a misunderstanding & if not that the decision is immediately overturned @AndrzejDuda @donaldtuskEPP @pawelkowalpl @gazeta_wyborcza

“This symposium employs established social science theory to frame and place into comparative perspective the case of Belarusian mass mobilization that began in August 2020.” @GwendolynSasse @oonuch tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10… 2/n Image
“Do geopolitical orientations distinguish anti-Lukashenka protesters from non-protesters in Belarus?” We find robust evidence of polarization along geopolitical lines.” @GwendolynSasse @oonuch @MOBILISEproject tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10… 3/n ImageImageImage
