Project Title

For a project on enhancing predictability in U.S.-Russian Relations

Date

Sep. 10, 2020

Duration

27 months

Description

The COVID-19 pandemic is likely to have a significant impact on great power competition involving the United States, Russia, China, and Europe. The greater the strains within and among the great powers, the less predictable their relations will become. One of the most important areas of potential miscalculation lies in signaling behavior as states communicate with each other through diplomatic dialogue as well as through indirect messages about their resolve to defend vital interests. To reduce the miscalculation chances, the project would seek to improve understanding of indirect signaling in various domains where the United States and Russia are competing. The project will entail regular interactions between U.S. and Russian experts and will result in a report.
