Putin seizes world’s attention, forcing West to confront renewed Russian threat.
on Ukraine’s borders with bold security demands, the Kremlin has seized a new relevance but perhaps also given one to the Western alliance.
The United States and some of its allies say they have rock-solid intelligence that war is imminent. That has drawn, which denies the 150,000-plus Russian troops clustered around Ukraine will be used in an assault on the former Soviet republic. The efforts at diplomacy have produced some suggestions of common ground on more limited demands, including arms control and increased transparency on military exercises.
Putin has galvanized NATO, which until this standoff was struggling for meaning and purpose after the Cold War. NATO is looking more united than at any time since 1995, Germany is looking to decrease its reliance on Moscow for natural gas, and Sweden and Finland are openly discussing joining the alliance, Hodges said. “This is entirely a manufactured crisis of the Kremlin‘s own doing.”
