ONP Doctoral Research Fellow @frhoffmann.bsky.social has published a new article in @foreignpolicy.com, examining what a war between NATO and Russia might look like, and what NATO must do to prepare.

Fabian Hoffmann @frhoffmann.bsky.social · May 19

While Russia is suffering horrendous casualties in Ukraine and failing by most metrics, European states perceive it as an existential threat—and are frantically preparing for an attack.

In my new piece for @foreignpolicy.com, I make sense of this paradox.

A Russia-NATO War Would Look Nothing Like Ukraine

Moscow will seek to avoid a full-on war and focus on breaking the bloc’s resolve.

ONP Doctoral Research Fellow @frhoffmann.bsky.social, together with @marksbell.bsky.social, has published a new article in Foreign Affairs examining the implications of a U.S. withdrawal from the European continent for European nuclear deterrence.

Fabian Hoffmann @frhoffmann.bsky.social · Mar 31

New piece out in @foreignaffairs.com by @marksbell.bsky.social and me.

We argue that as the USA pulls back from Europe, including its nuclear arsenal, European leaders face a nuclear trilemma.
