After Putin, the Deluge?
To help policymakers prepare for what might lie ahead, this report draws up a model consisting of 35 variables that will together shape Russia’s future – based on an extensive literature review and scenario workshop with Dutch and international experts. It then builds on this model to construct a scenario framework for the next five years. These scenarios take into account (1) to what extent the Russian regime could change or persist, (2) to what extent this would be accompanied by large-scale instability and violence, and (3) to what extent a future Russian government would pursue confrontation or rapprochement with the West. The report then puts forward six scenarios based on these variables and presuppositions.

The Eastern Partnership

The Eastern Partnership
This report assesses three policy dilemmas that need to be considered by the Netherlands and the European Union in order to make the EaP more effective. First, the EU needs to reconcile its geopolitical interests with its normative aspirations. Second, the added value of the EaP’s multilateral track should be deliberated with consideration of the differentiation in bilateral relations with EaP countries. Third, the EU will need to consider how to deal with protracted conflicts, hybrid threats, and other security challenges in the EaP region.

Uncharted and Uncomfortable in European Defence

Uncharted and Uncomfortable in European Defence
This report concludes that there are at least three situations in which the EU’s mutual assistance clause could plausibly be invoked: in response to a terrorist attack, against hybrid forms of aggression such as serious cyberattacks, and as a result of a kinetic military attack. There are also EU member states that are not members of NATO and that might want to rely on Article 42(7) as a means of last resort. Some calamitous situations may even be conceivable in which one NATO ally could invoke it against another. As uncomfortable and hypothetical as these scenarios may be, the EU should nonetheless be prepared to respond in case they do materialise. Regular exercises and the drafting of a non-binding document outlining the EU’s response options would be a step in the right direction.

Oekraïne: ‘whatever it takes’?
Inmiddels woedt alweer een jaar oorlog in het oosten van Europa. Het grove geweld, de vele slachtoffers, de vernietigde steden, het zijn beelden van een grote tragedie. Zolang als de oorlog duurt is de vraag: wat kunnen westerse landen doen om Oekraïne te helpen zich teweer te stellen tegen de Russische agressie en haar bezette grondgebied te bevrijden? Moeten we naast tanks en munitie ook F16s en raketartillerie met nog langere dracht leveren, waar Oekraïne om heeft gevraagd? Of moeten we voorzichtig zijn om zo het escalatierisico te beperken? Hoeveel gaat deze oorlog nog kosten, zowel in geld als in mensenlevens? Het zijn terechte vragen.

Ruslandbeeld van de Nederlanders kantelt en is minder gepolariseerd

Ruslandbeeld van de Nederlanders kantelt en is minder gepolariseerd
De nieuwe Barometer Alert laat een sterk verhoogde perceptie zien van de Russische bedreiging van onze veiligheid. In september 2020 was de Nederlandse bevolking nog verdeeld over de vraag of Rusland een bedreiging is voor de veiligheid van Europa. Ruim 35% zag Rusland als bedreiging, 38% was neutraal, en 27% zag Rusland niet als bedreiging. Het dreigingsbeeld bleek gepolariseerd: mensen met uiteenlopende politieke voorkeuren dachten verschillend over de internationale dreiging die van Rusland uitgaat. In oktober 2022 blijkt de dreigingsperceptie fors toegenomen. Er is in deze peiling gevraagd of Rusland een bedreiging is voor de veiligheid van Nederland: 71% is het hiermee eens, 14% oneens en 15% is neutraal. ''''Aan de ene kant zijn de Nederlanders minder enthousiast over het Russische nationalisme en voor zover ze nog wel enthousiast zijn over het conservatisme in Rusland is dat geen beletsel om te vinden dat Rusland wel een dreiging kan zijn,'''' zegt onderzoeker en Clingendael-directeur Monika Sie.
