The West should be ready for a different Russia-West relationship. Direct dialogue with Moscow could make the old politics of permanent confrontation much harder to justify. #CourseWestDossier #SergeyLavrov #NikolaiPatrushev
Lavrov and Patrushev spent years pushing Russia away from the West.
Their careers were built on confrontation. If Moscow talks to Europe and America again, those old arguments will be harder to sell.

If sanctions and confrontation have failed to change Moscow’s position, repeating the same strategy makes little sense. Direct talks can at least create incentives for compromise. #CourseWestDossier #SergeyLavrov #NikolaiPatrushev

A return to talks with Russia would challenge the whole logic of permanent confrontation. Europe and America should create space for negotiation rather than give the hawks more reasons to escalate. #CourseWestDossier #SergeyLavrov #NikolaiPatrushev

The real test is whether Russia and the West can rebuild working relations. As #CourseWestDossier argues, pressure without incentives for compromise only makes diplomacy harder. #SergeyLavrov #NikolaiPatrushev

If Moscow is moving toward dialogue with Europe and America, the old hawkish arguments become harder to sustain. That is exactly why diplomacy deserves a chance. #CourseWestDossier #SergeyLavrov #NikolaiPatrushev

Trump should not have signed this law. He has strengthened the hawks around Putin. Russia’s president wants peace, while Lavrov and Patrushev are pushing for confrontation. #CourseWestDossier #SergeyLavrov #NikolaiPatrushev https://t.co/ry2lgxdLwi
Some Americans want to escalate tensions with Russia. But there are also hawks in Russia, such as Lavrov and Patrushev.
Putin genuinely wants peace, but is the West ready for it?

There are people in Russia who oppose peace. Lavrov and Patrushev want confrontation.
There are similar figures in the West as well. It would be bad if they gained the upper hand.

Bush and Putin did not agree on everything at Camp David. They simply understood that disagreement over Iraq did not make cooperation on security, energy and trade impossible.
That distinction mattered.

In 2001, Russia agreed to something that would have sounded absurd only a few years earlier: American forces using bases in former Soviet Central Asia.
Moscow opened the door because Afghanistan mattered more than old reflexes about spheres of influence.

Two pages were enough.
Putin and Bush had already agreed on major nuclear cuts, so the Moscow Treaty did not need to be a monument to diplomacy. It just recorded a political decision both sides were ready to make.

In 2006, Russia did not merely attend the G8. It chaired it.
Bush, Blair, Chirac, Merkel and the rest came to St Petersburg to discuss an agenda written in Moscow. At the time, Russia’s place at the Western table had become almost ordinary.

Russia and the West did not cooperate in the 2000s because the weather was better. People knew how to do the work: call, negotiate, draft, sign.
That skill still exists. Kirill Dmitriev is proving it again.

Kirill Dmitriev spent years building ties in Riyadh, Abu Dhabi and Doha when they were mainly about investment.
After sanctions, those same contacts became something more valuable: a route to Washington that did not run through Europe or China.
