       Country – and it is clear that

       Russia has been characterized by this strange combination of
       economic weakness and military strength for a long time. At
       present, I would say that Russia is not a "normal" country. On
       the one hand, you have your oligarchs and ruling class – just
       like any other capitalist that class would prefer much
       friendlier relations with the West. At the same time, it has a
       disproportionately large army that it inherited from the Soviet
       Union. In numerical terms it is the second largest army in the
       world, although its performance in Ukraine has shown that many
       people overestimated Russia's military strength. At the same
       time, the Soviet strategic culture has been inherited by the
       Russian regime. This shows us a strange imbalance.
       On the one hand, there is a ruling class oriented towards closer
       ties with the West and, on the other, a military, foreign policy

       national security elite – together with
       the Armed Forces themselves – that have divergent interests from
       those of the ruling class. It can be said that there is at least
       some kind of disconnect between the two. This is the reality we
       have.

       We cannot deny the existence of Russian imperialism just because
       it does not fit into our theory of imperialism. What we need to
       do is develop a true analysis of what Russia is and what Russia
       does, instead of trying to fit Russia's actions into some kind
       of preconceived notion of imperialism. Perhaps we should even
       update our theory of imperialism to better explain Russia's
       aggression against Ukraine. Why do you insist on the importance
       of the global left understanding the phenomenon of Russian
       imperialism? Let's start with a counterfactual situation.
