Episode Outline
On Nov 28th, 2022, Pyotr met with Alex Vindman for an in-person interview at Johns Hopkins SAIS, where Vindman is a fellow. Alex and Pyotr had a wide-ranging conversation - some topics like Taiwan or US-China rivalries, are available exclusively to Patreons - but questions on this podcast episode include:
- What is the status of democracy vs autocracy?
- How much is the West to blame for what happened in 2022?
- Where is the Russian airforce and why hasn't it been used?
- What could the endgame look like and the prospect of negotiations?
This event was done in collaboration with Johns Hopkin's Foreign Policy Institute. Many thanks especially to Sophia Salazar RA for helping arrange the talk!
