Iida Siimes.: "Diplomatiaa ennen tuomiopäivää" , Voima 2/2024
Norjan Kirkkoniemeltä käsin raportoiva Barents Observer julkaisee uutisia Arktisista alueista ja erityisesti Venäjän valtavista Kuolan niemimaan ydintukikohdista. Kun lehden päätoimittaja Thomas Nilsen vieraili Helsingissä esitelmöimässä journalisteille vuoden 2024 tammikuussa, hän vei yleisöltään yöunet pitkäksi aikaa. Nilsen kertoi, miten veden alla ydinvoimalla kulkevaa ja ydinkärkeä kantavaa nopeaa Poseidon-torpedoa ei voi mitenkään torjua. Kun se on laukaistu liikkeelle, se kulkee vääjäämättä maaliinsa. Jos se räjähtää esimerkiksi Venäjän oletettujen vihollismaiden, kuten Yhdysvaltain tai Britannian rannikolla, sen räjähdysvoima ja aiheuttama tsunami tuhoavat koko rannikon. Myöhemmin ydinlaskeuma tuhoaa vielä lisää.
Tiedeyhteisö ympäri maailmaa nimittää Poseidonia ”tuomiopäivän aseeksi”. Putin on uhonnut rakentavansa näitä ainakin kolmekymmentä.

In this essay, journalist Leonid Ragozin argues that calls for “decolonizing” Russia play into the hands of the Kremlin’s anti-Western propaganda by evoking the fear of civil war – the same fear that makes Russians tacitly support Putin’s aggression in Ukraine.

A defeat for Ukraine would usher in a new era of fear in the whole Euro-Atlantic area, as Putin continues his drive to rebuild the Soviet empire, writes Boris Johnson.
