The Putin Analysis Project

Hosted by Klaire Mason, The Putin Analysis Project moves beyond daily headlines to examine the deeper forces that have shaped contemporary Russia. This isn't a surface-level news recap; instead, each episode acts as a deep dive, peeling back the layers of history, statecraft, and narrative that define an era. You'll hear how decades of history inform present decisions, how propaganda is woven into public life, and how the careful cultivation of a public image projects power both domestically and abroad. The podcast provides a structured, thoughtful framework for understanding a complex geopolitical landscape, making it an essential listen for anyone seeking to move past simplistic explanations. By focusing on the intersection of ideology, historical precedent, and media, the analysis offered here connects past events to current realities. Tune in for a nuanced exploration that challenges conventional wisdom and provides context often missing from mainstream discussions.
