A Change in German Leadership Won't Break the Standstill in Russia-EU Relations*Taras Kuzio* *Ukraine, * A change in German leadership means little for the future of Europe's relationship with Russia as long as the drivers of the Ukraine-Russia war remain in place. German Chancellor Angela Merkel's stepping down will not change the dynamics of Russian-European relations for four inter-connected reasons. Firstly, since 2014 the pro-Russian forces in Ukraine have been marginalized and are unable to win presidential or parliamentary elections. They have no possibility of becoming influential again because of the Russian-Ukrainian war, which is how three-quart... read more
