He is a Baltic Sea Fellow of the Foreign Policy Research Institute and is currently researching Polish deterrence for the Sasakawa Peace Foundation/Changing Character of War Programme, University of Oxford, where he also wrote this volume as a Smith Richardson Strategy and Policy Fellow 2015-16.
"Milevski succinctly traces the story of great power politics and
the Baltic states from their origins in the late medieval period to
the present. Essential reading for those studying the strategic
challenges facing the Baltic states today." -Antulio J. Echevarria
II, US Army War College
"Dr. Milevski has written an outstanding strategic study of the
security problem that Russia poses to the three Baltic republics
that are members of NATO: Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia. Because
of geography and politics, the only strategically plausible theory
for their security must reside primarily in a nuclear meaning to
Article V of the NATO Treaty." -Colin S. Gray, Professor Emeritus
of Strategic Studies, University of Reading
"A fascinating, well-written-and sometimes frightening-strategic
analysis of NATO's Baltic frontier." -Donald Stoker, author of
Clausewitz: His Life and Work
