What happens when the conversation gets real? 🌎

Our international relations and oriental studies fellows met with

🔵Feodor Lukyanov, Editor-in-Chief of "Russia in Global Affairs" journal, Chairman of the Presidium of the Council for Foreign and Defense Policy, and
🔵Dmitri Trenin, Academic Supervisor of the Institute of World Military Economy and Strategy at HSE University, RIAC President.

It quickly became clear that this was not about listening quietly in the back row, but about stepping into a space where arguments matter more than agreement.

At the center of the discussion:

🔹a world and global institutions no longer held together by familiar rules;
🔹what remains of liberalism and what is taking shape in its place;
🔹how Russia interprets and acts within today’s international system;
🔹strategic stability in a time when predictability is no longer guaranteed.

No simplified narratives. No final conclusions. Just an honest attempt to make sense of the ability to think in uncertainty — and speak within it.

The InteRussia fellowship is implemented with the support from the Presidential Grants Foundation.
