Ok, so you have an access to some "real" information about Russia? I guess it must be classified, because when I read something that is openly published on the West about Russia, it's usually very weird and untrue information at best.
McFaul is considered an expert on Russia, he even lived here for some time. Still, when he says something about the way we live or the way we think, or anything like that, it's usually so delusional, that I can't understand what was he doing here for two years. Has he even stepped outside of US embassy a single time?..
But on the other hand, I think it's beneficial for us, that all the West lives in a dream that they know everything about Russia.
- darkteflon 4y agoSeems like you guys are having a little trouble with underestimating your adversaries. Why don’t you check out the source I mentioned in my original comment - any recent WotR or Geopolitics Decanted podcast with Michael Kofman, Director of Russia Studies at CNA. Then please do come back and let us know whether you think he’s full of shit. Will be waiting for your considered thoughts with baited breath.
