=== Abstract ===
What does the initial stage of the Russian invasion of Ukraine suggest about Russia's concepts of future warfare? The initial phase saw Russian forces not following doctrine, not playing to their strengths, and executing a war plan that all evidence suggests was devised not by the military but by Russia's political and security services elites.

Russia's initial difficulties in the war are therefore not necessarily evidence of fundamental weaknesses in Russia's military and should not be seen as a reflection of how Russia would fight future wars.

=== Details ===
Chris Miller and Rob Lee from the Foreign Policy Research Institute will provide insights from ongoing research on Russian concepts of future warfare in the context of Russia's ongoing war in Ukraine.
