Answering John Mearsheimer: Solving the Ukraine Security Dilemma
In his latest video, Prof. John J. Mearsheimer argues that there is no resolution to the Ukraine conflict because of the inevitability of the security dilemma. While he is right about the dilemma itself, I am arguing in this video that there is a way to deal with the dilemma and that's a negative security assurance for Ukraine through a double security arrangement with both the Europeans and the Russians. I'm using the example of the Franco-British and Prussian-British security treaties of 1870 as illustrations for how a double security arrangement about the neutrality of a small power worked to produce 44 years of stability for Belgium.Referenced Video:
