In my new article, I explore how Russia’s escalation of the war in Ukraine unexpectedly contributed to further democratisation in Moldova. I use this case to build theory in the underexplored area of how crises can drive political change. 📖 Access it here: www.tandfonline.com/eprint/IQTPJ...

Russia’s escalation of the war in neighbouring Ukraine triggered a crisis that facilitated rather than impeded further democratisation in Moldova. Through analyticist process tracing, this article ...

www.crisisgroup.org/europe-centr... An excellent overview, as ever, by @crisisgroup.org on the situation in Georgia with careful recommendations regarding possible steps for the EU. "It is the Georgian people who hold the most meaningful leverage over the government at the moment."

Georgia’s Ruling Party Should Call Off Its Crackdown on Dissent | Crisis Group
The Georgian government’s decision to suspend its bid to join the European Union has sparked countrywide protests. Tbilisi should halt its violent response and engage with the political opposition to define a way forward. Western states should target responses to avoid harm to ordinary Georgians.
