This Biden-greenlighted-an-invasion-of-Ukraine is absurd. Biden has built a coalition to impose major sanctions on Russia should Putin invade. Biden also pledged $650 million in security assistance to Ukraine. That's deterring, not greenlighting war. 1/ — PolitiTweet.org

On this we agree! I recently wrote an academic article in @Journal_IS on exactly this topic. (Im an academic after all!). Tell me what I got wrong. "Putin, Putinism, and the Domestic Determinants of Russian Foreign Policy" https://t.co/lCcipNSHpq — PolitiTweet.org

If we want to draw conclusions about the drivers of Russian policy, we need to start by understanding how the Kremlin sees the world.

NB, I still dont believe the promise of new sanctions, current levels of military assistance to Ukraine, or threats to deploy NATO soldiers closer to Russia's borders is enough to change Putin's calculus. But I firmly believe that Biden is trying to change Putin's calculus. 2/ — PolitiTweet.org
