Jon Lindsay, associate professor in the School of Cybersecurity and Privacy and Sam Nunn School of International Affairs, recently co-authored a foreign policy essay in Lawfare. The piece is titled “Why Did Russia Escalate Its Gray Zone Conflict in Ukraine?”
In it, Lindsay and his co-authors discuss how Russia uses “gray zone warfare,” or military methods that don’t constitute peace but stop shy of full-blown war. The authors then note that Russia’s current troop buildup at its shared border with Ukraine suggests that it is experiencing the limits of gray zone warfare.
