Lots of people joining Mastodon right now, so here's a little intro.

I'm a political scientist at McGill U in Canada who has worked on #Ukrainе, #Russia and #Eastern Europe for ~20yrs. I've written abt courts, #RuleofLaw, #Corruption, #extremistparties, #protest and #conspiracies. Since Russia launched a full-scale #invasion of Ukraine in Feb, 2022, I've followed closely and I'm now writing a book on the roots of the #RussiaUkrainewar with my colleague and friend @OxanaShevel from Tufts U

@PopovaProf I hope you include the political support for russia overseas affected political parties in Europe and North America
