Putin

Putin : game master ?

Has Vladimir Putin become the master of the game ? Why and how did the Russian president decide to attack Ukraine ? Has he tried to prevent Ukraine from joining Europe ? Is he trying to reconstitute the USSR ? Did NATO promise not to expand eastwards after 1990 ?

Using intelligence files and official reports, Jacques Baud reviews the events in Russia's recent history that led to the war with Ukraine. He analyses the conflict between Russia and the West and sheds light on Putin's role on the international scene.

His work responds to topical questions, which facilitates access to a balanced explanation of events by shedding light on them that is sometimes very different from that disseminated by the mainstream media.
