Revisiting Containment: A New Strategy for U.S.-Russia Relations

This chapter explores the concept of containment as it applies to contemporary U.S.-Russia relations, juxtaposing it with historical contexts like the Cold War. The discussion emphasizes the shift from viewing Russia as a declining power to recognizing its resilient threat, advocating for strategic energy independence and regional alliances. It also addresses the complexities of containment in the face of China's rise and the need for Europe to enhance its defense capabilities and unified engagement strategies.
