A statist paradigm, for instance, leads John Mearsheimer to predict that "the situation between Ukraine and Russia is ripe for the outbreak of security competition between them.

Russia and Ukraine might overcome this dynamic and learn to live together in harmony, but it would be unusual if they do."
