You may not be interested in Russia. But Russia is interested in you.Russia's 2022 attack on Ukraine saw confrontation between Moscow and the West spill over into open conflict once again. But Russia has also been waging a clandestine war against the West for decades. Hostile acts abroad, from poisoning dissidents to shooting down airliners, interfering in elections, spying, hacking and murdering, have long seemed to be the Kremlin's daily business. But what is it all for? Why does Russia consistently behave like this? And what does it achieve?In this book, Keir Giles explains how and why Russia pushes for more power and influence wherever it can reach, far beyond Ukraine - and what it means not just for governments, but for ordinary people. Bringing together stories from the military, politics, diplomacy, espionage, cyber power, organised crime and more, Giles describes how Moscow conducts its campaigns across the globe, and how nobody is too unimportant to be caught up in them. By lifting the lid on the daily struggle going on behind the scenes to protect governments, businesses, societies and people from Russian hostile activity, Russia's War On Everybody shows how Moscow's hostile intentions for the rest of the world are far broader and more ambitious, and the ways it tries to achieve them far more pervasive and damaging, than we realise.

Auch die seiner Heimat, die jäh in das Zentrum der internationalen Aufmerksamkeit gerückt ist und zerbrechlicher scheint denn je. The Beauty of Ukraine ist eine Liebeserklärung an die Landschaften der Ukraine und zugleich ein ästhetischer Hochgenuss. Yevhen Samuchenko zeigt uns etwa den Lemurianischen See aus der Luft, dessen ungewöhnlich pinke Farbe ihn wie ein Land-Art-Kunstwerk erscheinen lässt. Er nimmt einen Canyon bei Cherson so auf, dass er wie eine Grafik in der sattgrünen Landschaft wirkt. Mohn- und Lavendelfelder faszinieren mit ihrer kompromisslosen Farbigkeit, Winterlandschaften mit ihrer monumentalen Stille und Reduziertheit. Sprachen: Deutsch, Englisch, Ukrainisch
