[Sharing] Russophrenia: the West’s favourite delusion about Russia – Brian McDonald

Ten years after I coined the term, the media’s still convinced Russia is both collapsing, and conquering the world There’s a peculiar affliction that’s gripped the Western commentariat for decades now.

[Partage] La Russie est notre Rorschach – Emmanuel Todd

En avril dernier, interrogé par une chaîne de télévision russe sur la russophobie occidentale, j’avais eu une illumination. J’avais à peu près répondu : cela va vous être désagréable d’entendre ça, mais notre russophobie n’a aucun rapport avec vous.
