Russia has long positioned itself as more than just a nation. It sees itself as an empire, a civilization, and a counterweight to Western dominance. But how did this vision take shape and what does it mean today?
In this episode of The Delve Europe, Chalin unpacks the complex layers of Russian identity, exploring how history, pride, and a sense of sovereignty shape Russia’s actions on the global stage. From Peter the Great to Vladimir Putin, Russia’s sense of greatness is intertwined with a desire for respect and stability.
Chalin speaks with historian Dr. Mark Galeotti to understand how Russia’s past drives its present ambitions. Plus, Russian expat Olga Shabanets shares why many Russians feel misunderstood by the West, despite a lingering admiration for American culture.
Is Russia’s quest for power a natural response to external threats or is it driven by a deeper desire to reclaim its place as a global leader? And as NATO expands eastward, how does Russia’s stance shape Europe’s future?
This episode goes beyond politics to examine the roots of Russia’s worldview; where pride and purpose meet paranoia and power.
