Nice to be in Genova today to present some of my work on Russia-Central Asia relations at the DISPI conference presenting the findings of our joint project on Central Asia geopolitics led by Prof Mara Morini.

Powerful, wee exhibition of exiled Belarusian artists at Palazzo D’Accursio, Bologna’s stunning town hall.

Stazione di Bologna. Time has stopped so that we don’t stop remembering.

Very excited to be travelling to Forlì tomorrow to present some of my work on personal rule in Central Asia to staff + students in the MIREES - East European and Eurasian Studies, at the University of Bologna.
