In this episode, Angela Stent and Keir Giles, authors of “Putin’s World: Russia Against the West and with the Rest” and “Moscow Rules: What Drives Russia to Confront the West,” examine the history of Russia’s national identity and how the U.S. fundamentally misunderstands Russia’s view of itself in conflict with the West.
