Fazle Chowdhury has officially launched his latest book, Ukraine At Any Price: A War Against the West, which is now a #1 new release in the History of the Baltic States category on Amazon. This compelling work provides a detailed exploration of the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, analyzing Russia’s prolonged tension with the West and the broader impact on Europe and NATO.
In Ukraine At Any Price, Chowdhury draws from extensive Ukrainian and Western sources to present a balanced and well-researched account of the conflict. He examines Russia’s longstanding efforts under President Vladimir Putin to reclaim Ukraine, a nation considered by many Soviet nostalgists to be an essential part of their historical legacy. Chowdhury skillfully dissects key moments that have shaped the current conflict, including Russia’s reaction to NATO expansion and Ukraine’s 2004 Orange Revolution.
Highlighting significant historical events, such as the 1999 NATO bombing of Yugoslavia, which Chowdhury argues contributed to Russia's growing assertiveness in its former Soviet sphere. He portrays Ukraine as a central figure, strategically caught between the East and West, emphasizing the broader implications for Europe and global stability.
Chowdhury also addresses the Western response to the conflict, noting that initial sanctions on Russia did not yield the expected outcomes. “Washington was nervous about supporting Ukraine away from the insurgency and to incremental defense, wanting to contain the war,” he writes. He discusses how these policies, which initially appeared effective, took a different turn when Russia’s economy remained unexpectedly resilient, allowing the conflict to persist.
It is a broader analysis of the geopolitical landscape, including the effects of Germany’s reunification on NATO and Russia. Chowdhury provides insights into how the conflict in Ukraine is influencing the security of Europe, particularly in Poland and the Baltic states, while nations like Moldova remain on edge.
The book also provides crucial insights into the historical and political roots of the conflict, offering readers a deeper understanding of how the war impacts global security, European unity, and U.S. foreign policy. With rising tensions between NATO, Russia, and emerging global powers, Chowdhury’s analysis sheds light on the broader consequences for international relations, making this book a timely and essential read for anyone seeking to grasp the complexities of modern geopolitics.
Chowdhury’s Ukraine At Any Price provides readers with a clear and comprehensive understanding of one of the most significant global conflicts of our time.
The book is available at several retailers.
