OUT TODAY! My new book, Autocrats vs. Democrats, looks at the challenges posed by autocratic Russia and China and explains how/why the U.S. must lead the democratic world in response. Available in stores or online: harpercollins.com/products/a… @HooverInst @FSIStanford @MarinerBooks @HarperCollins

My book gives a special shout out dedication to Ukrainians for a reason. In the global battle between Autocrats vs Democrats, no group of people today are sacrificing more for liberty, freedom, and democracy than Ukrainians.

Great piece by @UmlandAndreas -

Today’s core global conflict revolves more, in @Stanford professor Michael @McFaul's terms, around autocracies versus democracies and less around a clash of civilizations, as late @Harvard professor #SamuelHuntington put it three decades ago. kyivpost.com/opinion/63913 @KyivPost

This podcast by @NathalieTocci & @A_Sloat — Power and Purpose— is terrific. Have a listen.

In honor of Viktor Orban's visit to Washington, here's a reminder that, thanks to Orban, Hungary is corrupt, stagnant, and impoverished: theatlantic.com/magazine/arc…

The American people are right.

It’s pure horror. All of Ukraine’s Centrenergo thermal plants are down after russia’s unprecedented attack tonight. Darkness and cold are our reality – we need weapons to survive.

There are data to support your hypothesis.

Very kind @IAmAmnaNawaz .

This book is a must-read. Thank you for joining us @McFaul !

Another sighting in the wild.

How then could afford to give Argentina $40 billion? Why not leave that task to the IMF? That’s their job.

It seems we’ve already said to the world everything we could over these years. We presented arguments, told stories, explained meanings. And truly, we’ve repeated the important things so many times that I long ago caught myself thinking I’ve grown tired of myself in this role. But that’s an illusion. Every time I work in yet another country, I see many people who simply never heard our messages. And if the Bible repeats the same truths for millennia, then we must go to the people and speak. The war has not only a military dimension but also a cognitive one. In the end, this war was caused by a specific idea—that Russia, as a “God-chosen civilization,” has the right to invade other states, kill people, destroy their identity, kidnap children, and re-educate them as Russians. I have 8 countries ahead in two weeks, three of them in Asia. Because our fatigue does not define us. Photo Mitya Borodyn
