This is the first scholarly work on the Ukrainian unrest and the tragic downing of MH17. It offers an analysis that challenges the Western consensus surrounding these events, emphasising the geopolitical and economic context of the West's standoff with Russia, the BRICS bloc, and the struggles over the EU's energy supply. Based on previously unpublished government and NATO documents as well as a wide array of sources this book offers an analysis of global political economy and contemporary debates about Russia and East-West relations. 410 0$aGeopolitical economy. 606 $aAircraft accidents$xInvestigation$zUkraine 606 $aMalaysia Airlines Flight 17 Crash, Ukraine, 2014 607 $aWestern countries$xForeign relations$zRussia (Federation) 607 $aRussia (Federation)$xForeign relations$zWestern countries 607 $aUkraine$xPolitics and government$y1991- 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAircraft accidents$xInvestigation 615 0$aMalaysia Airlines Flight 17 Crash, Ukraine, 2014. 676 $a947.7086 700 $aPijl$b Kees van der$0699507 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910478910103321 996 $aFlight MH17, Ukraine and the new Cold War$92459206 997 $aUNINA
