Better the Kremlin you know: Germany reckons with its Russia problem

Germany seems to have had a blind spot over Russia – why is that? And how has their relationship changed following the war in Ukraine? Alex Andreou is joined by John Lough, author of Germany’s Russia Problem, to unpack when their relationship changed, what it means for Europe, and why the Berlin Wall still casts a long shadow over German politics.

• “Russia changed direction in 2005 but Germany didn’t take note.”
• “Despite knowing a lot about Russia, Germany has been very naive.”
