You Don’t Need to Like Russia to Understand It

di Simon Chkuaseli (Autore)

Simon Chkuaseli, 2025

A strategic and historical examination of Russia — not through Western moral lenses or Kremlin propaganda, but through the realism of geography, history, and power. In this compelling work, political strategist and theorist of international relations Simon Chkuaseli explores how Russia's geography, insecurity, and historical experience have shaped its behavior for centuries. From the birth of Rus' to the post-Soviet age, he traces the evolution of a civilization that seeks security through control and balance through strength. Rejecting both romanticism and hostility, the book argues that true understanding requires realism — the willingness to see nations as they are, not as we wish them to be. Through its clear narrative and strategic insight, You Don't Need to Like Russia to Understand It reveals why misunderstanding Russia has led the world into repeated cycles of confrontation — and why clarity, not emotion, remains the foundation of peace.
