Professor John Mearsheimer didn't fully answer my question here but Mr. Dugin did. I don't blame them though, it was a 3 and a half hour long stream, both these honorable gentlemen must be exhausted.

For my Geopolitics exam i chose professor Dugin's Euroasia book.
It changed how i saw things on a fundamental level.
Thank you for existing professor and all the work you do for Slavdom and its prosperity, your work will be read by future generations and be a inspiration in a sea of filth.

Much love and respect from your Serbian colleague.
