Wladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine took many by surprise. Yet there have been signs of increasing aggressiveness in Russian politics for years. Openly or covertly, the former superpower intervenes not only in its immediate neighbourhood, but worldwide. What is the self-image and the goals behind this? Who supports this policy and the Putin system? And can it build on the support of the population?
Manfred Quiring has worked as a correspondent in Moscow for more than two decades and knows the balance of power in the country better than anyone else. In this book he analyses the development that led to the war, asks about the economic and military foundations of Russian claims and sheds light on the role of the West.
