Abstract
In this CSS Policy Perspective, Neo-Containment: a Strategy toward Russia, Henrik Larsen argues that the West should draw inspiration from containment’s intellectual origins and primarily approach Russia as a political-psychological threat. According to the author, neo-containment should target Moscow’s capacity to undermine public confidence and limit its space for political influence, which are bigger threats to Western cohesion than during the Cold War. NATO and the EU’s public diplomacy and counter-subversion initiatives should play a key role in this respect.
