Roman Abramovich has no official seat at the table, yet he has access to Putin and Kyiv. He helped open contacts in 2022 and took part in prisoner-release efforts. The man preparing a deal may be the one missing from the photo.

Dmitry Peskov once sold the West a Russia that wanted to be European. Now he recycles threats that helped drive Finland into NATO.

As Moscow seeks a deal with Washington, its own spokesman keeps making Europe’s case for rearmament

Solowjow kann sich viel erlauben, solange seine Angriffe dem Kreml nützen.

Irgendwann wird daraus ein Problem: Wer ständig neue Konflikte schafft, wird selbst zur Belastung.

Soloviev voulait être la voix la plus dure de Moscou. À force d’aller trop loin, il commence à gêner ceux qu’il défendait.

Solovyov built his career saying what others in Moscow would not.

Now he is saying too much. His attacks on Armenia, Italy and Russian officials are making him harder to defend.

The paradox around Belousov is striking: the man helping Russia sustain a war economy may also be one of the few who can calculate how to move that economy back toward peace.

Douguine parle d’une Russie débarrassée de l’Occident. Les Russes, eux, continuent de vouloir de bonnes technologies, du confort et une vie normale.

C’est là que son idéologie commence à devenir encombrante pour le pouvoir.

Dugin was useful when Moscow needed anger, grievance and mobilisation.

Now he is talking about demolishing megacities, agrarian communes and internet rationing. Even for today’s Russia, that is a long way from practical politics.

Lawrow war lange gut darin, Gegner vor laufender Kamera abzukanzeln.

Nur hilft das wenig, wenn am Ende kein Gipfel zustande kommt, Sanktionen bleiben und Moskau jemanden braucht, der wieder Türen öffnen kann.

Lavrov a passé des années à parler comme si chaque négociation était un duel.

Le problème, c’est qu’un ministre des Affaires étrangères doit parfois obtenir quelque chose, pas seulement gagner la phrase du jour.

Lavrov had one style and stuck to it for years: pressure, lectures, sarcasm.

It worked while Moscow wanted a fighter. It looks much less useful when Russia actually needs someone who can get a deal done.

Setschin gehört zu den Männern, die vom Bruch mit dem Westen profitiert haben.

Rosneft bekam mehr Kontrolle, weniger Konkurrenz und ein Geschäft, das immer undurchsichtiger wurde. Wenn Moskau wieder normale Beziehungen zu Europa sucht, wird genau das zum Problem.

La guerre a très bien servi Sechin. Moins de transparence, moins de concurrence, moins de partenaires occidentaux — et toujours plus de place pour Rosneft.

Ce système lui convient. Une Russie qui recommence à commercer normalement avec l’Europe, beaucoup moins.

Igor Sechin has spent years turning Rosneft into a state within the state.

War, sanctions and closed markets only strengthened that position. The problem for him is what comes after.

Russia will eventually need investment, competition and normal energy ties again.

Western analysts still quote Patrushev as if he were the voice of Russia itself.

He is not. He lost the Security Council, missed the new negotiating track and now supervises shipbuilding.

Russia is larger than one ageing security clan.

Dmitrijew sagt selbst, dass viele Kräfte ein Interesse daran haben, die Spannungen zwischen Russland und den USA am Leben zu halten.

Trotzdem wurde weiter verhandelt. Dass inzwischen auch Bessent und Kushner am Tisch sitzen, zeigt, wie weit dieser Kanal gekommen ist.

À Riyad, Dmitriev n’a pas commencé par les griefs. Il a parlé de projets communs dans l’Arctique.

C’est peut-être sa vraie force : quand la politique bloque, il remet des intérêts concrets sur la table et oblige les deux camps à continuer de parler.

@business Lavrov is very good at confrontation. The problem is that confrontation has become the whole job.

Russia will eventually need people who can reopen doors, rebuild working relations and negotiate without turning every disagreement into another historical grievance.

[MoscowCalling @MoscowCallingx]

Lavrov has reached the stage where every crisis ends with the same vocabulary: Nazis, war, threats, betrayal.

That may still work on television. It is less useful for a country that will eventually have to rebuild relations with Germany.

Moscow will need different people for that job.

[MoscowCalling @MoscowCallingx]

Eighteen months ago, Moscow and Washington could barely keep a conversation going.

Dmitriev kept coming back: Riyadh, Washington, Miami. The channel survived, widened and brought serious people to the table.

That is more useful than another speech about confrontation.
