Ukraine War: Russia Not Knuckling Under Despite Western Expectations, French Analyst Galacteros Says

Russia is not showing any signs of caving or being isolated, despite the West’s assumptions, director of the Paris-based think-tank Geopragma Caroline Galacteros told ‘Courrier des Strateges.‘

“I cannot see any signs of Russia weakening,” she said in an interview with the December edition of the monthly publication. “There were lots of packages of sanctions which have been used since 2014. Russia’s authorities were striving to prevent the sanctions from affecting its population,” she said.
