He was making a tentative hypothesis, not the strident assertion attributed to him in subsequent years. But the apparent stability of the conditions that prompted his inquiry justifiably lulled many in the West into a false sense of superiority. With the Cold War about to suddenly and spectacularly end, Fukuyama was undeniably prescient, but he was also pushing on an open door.
It is up to European countries, including Russia, to talk through a future European security structure: even though strategically Russia can rely on its Asian partners, it cannot separate itself from Europe geographically.

As NATO leaders gathered on Thursday to discuss the Ukraine crisis, the US has been mulling new sanctions on Russia to further pressure it.
