Russia in 2021: With Researcher Jakub Godzmirski (NUPI)
Are you curious about local events in Russia in 2021? Check out this recent episode that Political Bark has done with an expert in the field: Jakub Godzmirski.
I ask Jakub about Russia's place in the world: In terms of the high north (Arctic), the USA, Norway, as a force to be reckoned with, and as a main producer of crude oil and gas. What happens when we switch to more renewable energy forms and our dependency (EU) on Russia lessens? Which role will Russia play in the world the next decade? An important one according to Godzmirski. However, as Political Bark points out, driving a zero sum game with neighbors and distant allies (or enemies) is not the smartest way to behave internationally.
Last but not least, who is Navalny? Why is Navalny important? Why is he a disruptor?
