How did the crisis of Russian identity, beginning in the 1990s, lead to Putin’s genocidal “quest for symbolic immortality,” of which the invasion of Ukraine is one manifestation?

Yesterday, I had the huge pleasure to moderate a discussion of three great experts about the Weimar Triangle and Ukraine. Thank you @malwinatalik.bsky.social , @rlequiniou.bsky.social, and Kai-Olaf Lang @swp-berlin.org for an interesting and dynamic discussion! #CafeKyiv2025
True leadership means respect for partners and allies. Even for the smaller and weaker ones. Never arrogance. Dear friends, think about it.
Polish Nobel Peace Prize winner Lech Wałęsa and 38 other former political prisoners of Poland's communist regime have condemned Donald Trump's treatment of Volodymyr Zelensky on Friday, which they said reminded them of communist interrogation techniques
Dear Volodymyr Zelenskyy, dear Ukrainian friends, you are not alone.
When Russia invaded Ukraine, Finland’s then-president Niinistö said that the masks had fallen.
If anyone was still clinging onto some kind of hope of Trump coming around on Ukraine, this disgrace of a press conference should make everything clear now.
Trump is anti-Ukraine. Pro-Russia.
So how presidential is the current US president?
11 years ago #Russia illegally and treacherously occupied #Crimea. This day is a symbol for resistance to the occupation. The fact remains: Crimea is Ukraine!
Just like Donetsk, Kherson, Luhansk and Zaporizhzhia.
Austria remains committed to a free and independent #Ukraine.
Ukraine is not, as the Russian ambassador said, a "project."
Its statehood is older than Muscovy’s.
It has been a member of the US longer than Russia.
It has a language, an identity and its own aspirations.

We keep standing with #Ukraine🇺🇦! And you❓
🔹Three years ago, Russia launched an unprovoked full-scale war of aggression against Ukraine. Yet, its violations began long before—since 2014, Russia has illegally occupied Crimea and waged war in Eastern Ukraine, blatantly defying international law.

Do you know those relatives (usually retired uncles) who, during family gatherings, complain about current politics, democracy and paint a vision of how they would run a state - with an iron fist, of course?
It feels like too many of their kind have actually made it into power these days.
No #EU flag on state institutions? This rings a bell...
#Poland 2015: "President Duda removed it [the EU flag] out of the presidential palace, and Prime Minister Szydło from press conferences."
2013 Pawłowicz, one of the then key PiS-politicians, called it a "rag."

Trotz harter Migrationsrhetorik setzt Mittel- und Osteuropa auf mehr Zuwanderung – der Fachkräftemangel zwingt dazu. Malwina Talik zeigt in ihrem Info Europa-Artikel, warum die Region nicht nur Auswanderungsgebiet ist und wie eine kluge Integrationspolitik ihre Zukunft gestalten kann.
Cieszę się, że dotarł do mnie niedawno Polski Przegląd Dyplomatyczny poświęcony tym razem #UE, a w nim mój artykuł "Unia Europejska w obliczu instrumentalizacji migracji przez #Białoruś".

A year ago or why Musk's hitlergruß shouldn't be played down as an isolated incident:
"The visit [to Auschwitz] comes after intense criticism of how X (...) tackles antisemitic posts and just weeks after Musk apologised for endorsing an antisemitic conspiracy theory." www.bbc.com/news/technol...
W nowym roku w #Austria dominuje temat upadłych negocjacji koalicyjnych oraz widmo populistycznego kanclerza. Ale nowy rok to również pełne członkostwo Bułgarii i Rumunii w Strefie Schengen. Dlaczego dopiero teraz? To miałam okazje wyjaśnić w Podróży bez Paszportu. youtu.be/M12GjkRXHzQ?...
W Austrii dzieje się ostatnio tak wiele, że niektóre z moich komentarzy dla Polskiego Radia/Der Auslandsdienst des Polnischen Rundfunks zdążyły się diametralnie zdeaktualizować w ciagu zaledwie paru tygodni od nagrania....
Dziękuję Jakub Kukla za ciekawą wymianę spostrzeżeń!
Vielen Dank für diese positive Bewertung des Interviews!
Polen will als EU-Ratsvorsitzender erreichen, dass der Krieg zu Ende geht, aber zu Bedingungen, mit denen die Ukraine einverstanden ist sagt @malwinatalik.bsky.social im #ö1-#Europajournal. Wir reden über die, die PL-UA und die PL-Ö Beziehungen.
