They have managed to desecuritize the relationship so that neither expects danger from the other, but they keep it in a very flexible framework so there are no formal alliance obligations
Western leaders should not overestimate the strength of the China-Russia relationship, thinks Kadri Liik
Everyone wonders how far Putin can go, where the stopwatch is for him

Kadri Liik’s tweet on Russia’s reaction towards the sanctions being quoted

Kadri Liik being interviewed about Russia’s attack on Ukraine
[Putin] risks Russia’s economic development, Russia’s global position and also Russia’s internal stability in order to get hold of Ukraine
Putin gave priority to his own obsession over Russia’s interests said Kadri Liik
We are under the NATO umbrella, we are protected, we are fine, but it might be good to have some bilateral communication channels also with moscow.
Kadri Liik recommends the baltic leaders to communicated bilaterally with Russia
The goal wasn’t to go to war, but rather to jolt the West out of its comfort zone and initiate talks about arms control measures and the future of the Minsk agreements
According to Kadri Liik, an offensive with a high number of casualties and the occupation of Ukraine does not fit Russia’s logic
The Kremlin probably decided that it is counterproductive to continue it that way given the world’s reaction. You cannot keep up the tensions on that stage for very long
Kadri Liik told The Moscow Times that the escalating tensions between Russia and the West have reached a sort of “culmination”
Russia and the US can still step down from war without looking weak
Kadri Liik says both Russia and the US are in a position to de-escalate tensions over Ukraine without losing face
Kadri Liik discusses whether NATO can strengthen Europe’s defence against Russia
