The "Russian Analytical Digest" has a new issue out on "Perceptions of #Russia’s War in the Global South", to which I contributed an article titled "The View from the South: Latin American Perspectives on Russia’s War of Aggression against #Ukraine" 1/15 Image I discuss a number of possible explanations for the ludicrous comments on Russia's war offered by some democratic leaders in #LatinAmerica. While authoritarian leaders such as #Maduro in #Venezuela have obvious reasons for supporting #Putin, ... 2/15

Für die #Ukraine-Analysen 291 (@laenderanalysen) durfte ich einen kleinen Beitrag über die verwirrende Haltung vieler Politiker in #Lateinamerika zum russischen #Angriffskrieg schreiben.

Yesterday, I debunked a major German weekly's misinformed article on the effects of #clustermunitions. I absolutely did not expect that today, I would have to do the same for an article from... 1/x
...@ChathamHouse! With the enormous credibility that the institution usually enjoys, I was very disappointed to read this badly researched piece, and people not working in strategic studies or related areas might actually believe some of the claims. 2/x

I know it's perhaps not the intention of the author, but this does sound as if IR scholars... 2/ ...represented pro-Moscow views on the #Russian-#Ukrainian #War in significant numbers.

1/ As suggested by @PopovaProf, I'd like to comment on the recent remarks by the #Brazilian president-elect, @LulaOficial, on the #Russian war of aggression in #Ukraine. Needless to say, many were struck by the ignorance and brutishness of these utterances. A 🧵... 2/ But what lies behind this?
