Resumen de How the west has won

Stephen Sestanovich

• The article looks at the 2014 Russian intervention in Ukraine. It responds to the article "Why the Ukraine Crisis is the West's Fault" by political scientist John Mearsheimer, which appeared in the September/October 2014 issue. The author critiques Mearsheimer's argument that troubled U.S.-Russian relations were the cause of the crisis, emphasizing instead the history of conflict between Russia and Ukraine. Particular focus is given to Mearshimer's previous writings on the region's politics. Topics discussed include the Cold War, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), and Russian President Vladimir Putin.
