So what changed between 2010 and 2014? Did NATO become stronger? No. Did NATO try to bring Ukraine in? No. Was the US more threatening to Russia? No. Rather, things changed inside Russia and Ukraine. In other words, you have to bring domestic politics into the story. 6/ — PolitiTweet.org

In 2014, Russia reverted back to talking about NATO expansion as a threat. For 5 years, 2009-2014, NATO expansion was almost never discussed between US and Russian leaders. (NB, I worked for Obama between 2009-2014 & attended almost all of these mtgs) 5/ — PolitiTweet.org
