My recent article in Italian.
Come ha dichiarato Lavrov, l’obiettivo della Russia non sono i territori. L’obiettivo è annichilire il progetto politico ucraino, la provincia che ha osato ribellarsi all’impero.

Quelques réflexions sur la question de la défense. Une discussion sérieuse doit partir de la réalité des menaces et ne pas confondre le militarisme avec défense d’un espace démocratique, dans lequel il reste possible de lutter contre le néolibéralisme. blogs.mediapart.fr/hanna-perekh...

"Ru will insist it is prepared to have a ceasefire, but (only) under the conditions that it has formulated for the last two or three years"

Can we stop with the idiotic euphemisms? Ru’s conditions are Ukrainian surrender. Ru wants to win without continuing to fight.

Witkoff says that ending the war in Ukraine is a task that must be accomplished by the end of Trump's term. I suppose that means that the end of Trump's term is in 24 hours. Please say yes!

For my Italian friends. Volume 4/2025 of MicroMega, available in bookstores and by subscription, is dedicated to contemporary autocracies. You will also find my contribution about Ukrainian resistance. While Ukraine’s democratic identity has been forged under fire, it is not guaranteed.
Ucraina, prima linea della lotta globale all’autoritarismo
Quella in Ucraina non è solo una guerra per la democrazia e la libertà di Kyïv. È il fronte esterno di un’unica lotta globale contro l’autoritarismo.

Meanwhile, IR students will be reading Barry Posen’s recent article, which claims Ru is pursuing a defensive, preemptive war. Because it’s important to have a scholarly debate or something, regardless of how disconnected from facts some takes are.

🇺🇦 The war in Ukraine is changing many things—not least the use of languages. This affects the linguistic rights of Ukrainian, Crimean Tatar and Russian speakers.

The Russian and Ukrainian languages have coexisted in Ukraine for many years under different political situations. In the current war context, this has led to further politicisation of both languages,...

Fox News on Canada and Mexico sounds like Russian state media about Ukraine in 2013
Fox News anchor, Jesse Watters finds it “personally offensive” that Canadians refuse to be annexed by the US: “That’s what everyone in the world wants—American citizenship.”

American Imperialism is on full show.

It is tempting to dismiss Trump’s rhetoric as theatrical excess and Trump as an aberration, arguing that the American democratic system is robust—just as most media commentators do now. It’s not just false but irresponsible. 1/4

We are facing the biggest coordinated attempt ever to deny reality as such, by those who have the means to reduce the whole of humanity to slavery.
