In Moscow's Shadows 34: Belarus, of course
A spur-of-the-moment, off-the-top-of-my-head take on what's going (wr)on(g) in Belarus: the Russian connection or rather the absence of any evidence of one, Lukashenko's motivations, and above all what can be done. We need a strategy, a sense of what we want, and above all to realise that we cannot force change on Belarus but should rather help the Belarusian people generate it.The article by Leonid Ragozin I mention is here. For a general take of mine from August of last year that I think still broadly holds up. see here. On Vakulchik and general Belarusian security politics, I note a short cellcast of mine here.
