Great article. This is a hard one to compress so I recommend people simply read it. For me, the main takeaway is that there is great depth and detail to understand anything or anyone well. Most accounts that inform our opinion on topics like Putin or Russian geopolitics are simply far too simplistic, lending themselves to confirmation bias. These simplistic views are very entrenched due to their convenience. It’s refreshing to hear a very different take.
