RUBASE – RuBase is a multi-year research programme that sets out to improve our understanding of Russia’s multi-domain international behaviour. The ‘base’ in RuBase refers both to the knowledge base the team is building and to its (aspirationally) foundational nature.
Beyond Western interpretations, how is Russia debating its own military future and stance towards NATO? The innovative multi-year research project RUBASE sets out to improve our understanding of Russia’s multi-domain international behaviour, by providing insights derived directly from Russian-language sources on two crucial topics: Russia’s capacity for military regeneration and its potential intentions towards NATO.
It leverages an innovative analytical approach, combining deep domain expertise with AI assistance, to systematically process a scale of information previously unmanageable.
