Chatter: What Putin Wants, with Peter Clement

Chatter: What Putin Wants, with Peter Clement

For more than 40 years, Peter Clement has studied Russian political culture and leaders--serving for most of that time as an analyst, manager, and executive at the CIA before his retirement in 2018. He has PhD in Russian history, teaches at Columbia University, and has thought long and hard about what makes Vladimir Putin tick.


He joined David Priess to discuss his road to studying Russia as a career, the art of Kremlinology, Putin's rise, Putin's feelings about Ukraine across the decades, the images of himself Putin projects to the West and within Russia, why FDR would be great to have around right now, and more.


Works mentioned in this episode:


The book First Person by Vladimir Putin


The essay "On the Historical Unity of Russians and Ukrainians" by Vladimir Putin


The article "Putin's Risk Spiral," Foreign Affairs (October 26, 2022), by Peter Clement


The book Present at the Creation by Dean Acheson
