23. RUSSIA VS. THE WEST
Workz A/S, Kronprinsessegade 20, 1306 Kbh. K (+45) 88 88 82 50, contact@workz.dk
WESTERN BRIEF
OVERALL POSITION AND SITUATION
The key concerns of most European countries are lack of economic growth, huge public debt and high unem-
ployment rates. National security is closely linked to membership of the NATO alliance and support from the
USA. Many European countries have very limited military capabilities that are operational and useful in a direct
confrontation with Russian forces.
Within EU, there are internal disagreements about how to respond to the Russian aggressions and how much
EU/NATO can and should engage with Eastern Europe and Caucasus. Many European countries have strong
economic relations with Russia or are depending on Russian gas supplies.
KEY OBJECTIVES
These are your key objectives for the game:
• Avoid direct and uncontrolled military confrontations with Russia. Protect and expand the legitimacy of the
NATO alliance.
• Counter Russian aggressions and dominance in Eastern Europe, especially towards Ukraine, Georgia, Mol-
davia and the Baltic countries.
• Help the government in Kiev in their efforts to create a modern liberal state. Avoid a collapse in Ukraine
with uncontrollable humanitarian consequences and massive numbers of refugees fleeing to EU member
states.
• If possible, find a fast solution to the crisis that will limit the negative impact on the European economy.
™
RUSSIAN BRIEFOVERALL POSITION AND SITUATION
National security issues have key priority, even if there are consequences for the national economy or the
living conditions of the population. The government’s resilience towards the public’s hardship is significant,
and there is strong support for the president and his agendas. The impact of public protesting is very limited,
and the likelihood of this leading to a regime change is very small.
The economic situation is severe and due to low oil prices and Western sanctions it is rapidly deteriorating.
Due to lack of proper funding, the Russian military as a whole is not ready for a major confrontation with the
West. However, smaller parts of the armed forces are well trained and possess sophisticated weapons on par
with NATO’s most modern equipment.KEY OBJECTIVESThese are your key objectives for the game:
• Avoid direct military confrontation with the West, especially USA.
• Hinder and, if possible, push back the eastward expansion of NATO. Explore any opportunity to create a
situation in the Baltic countries that will undermine the influence of NATO and the West.
• Control the development in Eastern Ukraine in order to maintain control of Crimea and to prevent the gov-
ernment in Kiev from joining NATO or EU.
• Enforce control of the Nord-East Passage and Russian interests in the Arctic. Counter the aggressive
claims of Denmark and Canada in the region to establish a position of strength for future negotiations.
• Keep control of the Tartus navy base and prevent the downfall of Assad’s regime in Syria.
• Ensure continued support of the Russian public and supress internal opposition.
• Support the Russian economy by making sure that the Western sanctions have limited scope and duration.
If possible, find ways to influence, and possibly raise, the price of oil and gas.

46. CHANGEINBRIEF
• Change is normal.
• Resistance to change is a common reaction.
• We resist because we want to protect something valuable.
• Everyone reacts differently to change.
• We react on the basis of previous experience and personal values,
opinions and preferences.
• Good change leadership involves dealing with different employees
differently through the phases of change.
