Russia in Global Affairs

The world’s sharp division into center and periphery is shrinking. More actors will build a new international order than ever before. This means that middle powers will come to the fore.

In the spring of 2024, we can confidently say that the West has been unable to defeat Russia as it wanted and now it is concerned with ensuring that Russia “does not win.” So, in the future, for years, if not decades to come, security in Europe will be determined by the balance of power along the line of contact between Russia and NATO. Russia will do everything to maintain this balance for its part.
