About this episode
1941 KYIV Proxy Warfare Dynamics in Modern Conflicts Andrew Peek, author of War Without Footprints, examines how sovereign states deploy proxies and surrogates to achieve strategic geopolitical objectives while delaying international balancing and preserving plausible deniability. He traces Russian hybrid warfare tactics from successful operations in Georgia, Crimea, and the Donbas under Vladislav Surkov’s nonlinear war doctrine to the full-scale 2022 invasion of Ukraine. Peek details policy shifts across the Barack Obama, Donald Trump, and Joe Biden administrations, advocating pragmatically broader proxy alignment strategy against rising strategic rivals. (6)
