Summary/Abstract |
When Vladimir Putin annexed Crimea in March 2014, he challenged Ukraine’s sovereignty. In blatant defiance of Europe at large, Russia left her Western neighbors to question the true intentions of their oversized counterpart. Andrey Babitskiy, Russian journalist and war correspondent, compares the EU’s weaknesses to Russia’s strengths, yet argues that Europe’s shortcomings may well save the continent from the brink of collapse.
