Dr Rob Johnson has written a second essay, following on from that published a few weeks ago, on the invasion of Ukraine. The essay looks at the slowing Russian advance, the increasing Russian casualties, and the attacks on Ukrainian civilians. The international response is also assessed, particularly Europe’s difficulty in fully divesting from Russian oil and gas supplies. The essay ends by looking at potential outcomes, including “a new Cold War” and what Russia’s stated objective of ushering in a multipolar world would mean for the international order.
