Russia´s full scale invasion of Ukraine of February 2022 marks the
end of the post-wall era that started in 1989/1991. Great Power
competition, geopolitics and violent 20th Century land-war
strategies are back on the European agenda. This episode features
Mary Sarotte, one of the internationally most renown historians of
the post-Cold War period. 1,5 years into the Russian war in
Ukraine, she discusses the main turning points in the relationship
between Russia and NATO, missed opportunities to integrate Ukraine
into the Western security architecture and also proposes a new term
that reaches beyond the era of Zeitenwende. In conversation with
Gabriele Woidelko.
