ASPI will host a panel to discuss the themes explored in the upcoming Strategy publication by Emeritus Professor Paul Dibb.

The paper analyses Russia’s geopolitical ambitions, its military modernisation, the threat it poses to the international order and how the West should respond. The prospects for the Russian economy are also examined to assess how economic weakness might affect Russian behaviour.

The paper concludes by addressing Moscow’s strategic priorities in the Asia-Pacific region and the implications of Russia’s rise for Australia.

Panellists:

• Emeritus Professor Paul Dibb, Coral Bell School of Asia Pacific Affairs, ANU
• Assistant Secretary Paul Myler,
  Strategic Issues and Intelligence, Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade and former Australian Ambassador to the Russian Federation
• Admiral (Ret’d) Chris Barrie, Royal Australian Navy

The panel will be moderated by Mr Peter Jennings, Executive Director, ASPI.
