Has Vladimir Putin become the master of the game? Why and how did the Russian President decide to attack Ukraine? Did he seek to prevent Ukraine from associating with Europe? Does he seek to reconstitute the USSR? Did NATO promise not to expand east after 1990? Is the Nord Stream 2 project the sinews of war? Is Ukraine's neutrality the only solution? Has Russia ever lost or won the war?...

Never in the lifetime of most British adults has there been such uncertainty about the future of the political and governing institutions of the state. Brexit has the potential to change everything – from the shape of government institutions, to the main political parties, from Britain's relationship with its near neighbour Ireland to its international trading. The idealists of the Leave campaign won their vote in 2016. But now the realists are gently taking over. Here, Denis MacShane explains how the Brexit process will be long and full of difficulties – arguing that a 'Brexiternity' of negotiations and internal political wrangling in Britain lies ahead.

Depuis plusieurs années, la montée du populisme liée notamment à la crise des réfugiés et des migrants, la crise économique et financière, la montée du chômage, ont eu un effet considérable sur le sens de la construction européenne. Aujourd’hui, plus que jamais, l’Europe est en danger et la poursuite de la construction européenne est incertaine. Mais il n’y a pas de fatalité. Il convient de prendre la mesure de la crise de confiance qui l’att...
