‘We’re in 1938 now’: Putin’s war in Ukraine and lessons from history
One of the contemporary politicians most influenced by the past is the Estonian prime minister, Kaja Kallas, and not just because of her country’s occupation byRussiaor her personal family history of exile.
She said the same mistake was made in 1938 when tensions in Abyssinia, Japan and Germany were treated as isolated events. The proximate causes of the current conflicts inUkraine, the Middle East, the South China Sea and even Armenia might be different, but the bigger picture showed an interconnected battlefield in which post-cold war certainties had given way to “great-power competition” in which authoritarian leaders were testing the boundaries of their empires. The lesson – and necessity – was to resist and rearm.

The only lesson people have learned from WWII is that if one does not occupy London and Washington D.C. they will come to Munich and Berlin in the end. Strike whenever you can.
