Zbigniew Brzezinski’s perspective on the Russia-Ukraine crisis
Zbigniew
Brzezinski, a National Security Adviser to President Carter, has been
decidedly anti-Soviet in his long and distinguished career. Yet, despite Brzezinski’s
strong views, which were often perceived as one-sided and radical, his thinking
has influenced generations of policymakers in Washington DC and other capitals because
his vision on how to approach a number of global challenges proved right. His recent
biography
by Andrzej Lubowski is an interesting synthesis of Brzezinski’s ideas, many of
which have turned out to be prophetic, at least with respect to Russia.
