Statement from US Secretary of State Antony Blinken: 'Today, I am announcing the public designation of oligarch and former Ukrainian public official Ihor Kolomoyskyy due to his involvement in significant corruption.' state.gov/public-designa…

Is Russia succeeding or failing in its foreign policy objectives? Why do we find it so hard to agree even just on that? I wrote down some thoughts for BalticDefenceCollege's 'Russia Conference Papers 2021'.

Add to this the data we have on citation bias, publication bias (journals & books), student evaluation bias, and the pandemic and omg: leaky pipeline bias, progression and promotion bias. Institutions need radical action, now. twitter.com/liamstanley/st…

amazing: after two days of voting on whether to restore Cheka founder Dzerzhinsky to Lubyanka or put Alexander Nevsky instead, MSK mayor says that actually it's all to divisive and we should just forget all about it and leave Lubyanka as it is

Excellent from ⁦@russophiliac⁩: Navalny’s ‘cancellation looks all the more farcically self-regarding on the part of western institutions given his past has little or no relevance to the many social and political grievances his campaign symbolizes’ themoscowtimes.com/2021/02/25/nav…

Not only is Katya Kazbek a tankie & avowed Stalinist, she is a wealthy Russian heiress, living in a Manhattan apartment worth millions of dollars while trashing this country at every opportunity.

Meanwhile, Navalny is rotting in a Russian prison.

Cool story, Katya & Amnesty UK

So excited to talk to Andrei Soldatov and Irina Borogan about their excellent book ‘The Compatriots’. Please join us!
