“David Oualaalou takes a decisive stance on this matter by placing Moscow at the centre of the global geopolitical chessboard, alongside China and a declining United States. … The book offers an extensive overview of some of the intricacies of Putin’s Russia vis-à-vis a weakened US global leadership and its inconsistent foreign policy. … Oualaalou captures the reader’s attention through bold statements and predictions about changes to the international system that would be inevitable even in the post-Putin era.” (Iren Marinova, Europe-Asia Studies, January 16, 2023)
