In this edition of Issues of Contemporary Politics with Dr. Brovkin I discuss an article by Stephen Kotkin published in Foreign Affairs May-June 2024. His views are typical of the Neocons' vision of Russia, that it is backward, that it needs technologies from the West, typical arrogant presumption of Western superiority and so on. And then I provide a short outline the way i see Russia's future and its role in world affairs.
