A US Army War College Analysis of Russian Strategy in Eastern Europe, an Appropriate US Response, and the Implications for US Landpower

Following the Kremlin's 2014 intervention in Crimea and Ukraine, this paper provides an overview of what it sees as the reemergence of Russia as a strategic landpower. More specifically it examines 1) Russia's strategic environment; 2) how Russia has applied its strategic landpower in recent years; and 3) the strategic approach Russia is taking towards NATO. It argues that Russia's actions in Crimea and ongoing war against Ukraine marked a turning point in its relations with Europe and the US. It then provides recommendations for US policymakers and their NATO allies on how to answer this emerging threat in Eastern Europe.
