Dina Khapaeva, a professor in the Georgia Institute of Technology School of Modern Languages, recently wrote an article entitled “Putin and the Apocalypse” for Project Syndicate.
Read an excerpt here:
In the last year, Putin has spoken about a “nuclear apocalypse” more than any Western leader has over the last decade, causing some to speculate that he may be threatening NATO and the United States. But Putin has blamed the risk of a catastrophic outcome on the West, framing Russia’s hypothetical use of nuclear weapons as revenge or retaliation.
