While the exact details of the standoff are unclear, they indicate a significant escalation of tensions.How did we get here, and what does the clash mean for Putin's future, Ukraine and the EU? What could a post-Putin Russia look like?To get some answers, we speak to Zachary Paikin, researcher of EU foreign policy at the Centre for European Policy Studies, and Hans Kribbe, director of the Brussels Institute for Geopolitics.
