In reply to: Tucker Carlson interviewing Putin  posted by SEE


the February 22 issue of the New York Review of Books review of several books about "Eurasianism," the favored nationalist ideology of a school of nutty geopolitical theorists who are now influential in Putin's Russia. You need to read stuff like this in order to imagine how -- for some, I have no idea of how many -- Russia's war on Ukraine makes historic sense. Dostoevsky in his craziest pan-Slavic fantasies couldn't have dreamed up Eurasianism.
