Key Notes
Moscow's role in Orthodox tradition as successor to Rome and Constantinople, carrying a destiny to restore Christian civilization.
Russian belief that Moscow inherits Rome and Constantinople as the true Christian imperial center.
Jiang expects a multipolar order with an American Technate, Russian Third Rome, and Pax Judaica competing and cooperating for perhaps 10 to 20 years.
Dugin's Foundations of Geopolitics is presented as the source of the Third Rome plan: American unipolar liberalism will collapse because secularism, individualism, and liberalism break community and are anti-human.
The Third Rome strategy is to keep Russia coherent through territory, nationalism, religion, faith, war, and allies while the United States, China, Europe, and the Middle East collapse.
Jiang rejects the NATO-response explanation of Ukraine and says the invasion implements the Third Rome strategy by giving Russia food, energy, and Black Sea export control.
Jiang says Orthodox eschatology expects Moscow as the Third Rome, no Fourth Rome, Russian unification of Orthodoxy, and Greeks returned to Constantinople after Russia defeats Turkey.
Jiang predicts Russia winning in Ukraine, Greeks returning to Constantinople, Europe/NATO destroyed, and Orthodox eschatology achieving the Third Rome prophecy.
Jiang presents World War II in Orthodox-mythic terms as a struggle between Moscow as Third Rome and Nazi Germany as Antichrist, with Stalin as the chosen one who could redeem Russian civilization.
Jiang says Putin's mission, under this hypothesis, is to finish Stalin's failed mission by restoring the Byzantine Empire and making Moscow's Third Rome destiny real.

Relevant Lectures And Readings
The midterm turns a ceasefire into a world model: history moves like a river, eschatology makes prophecy into a plan, and the people who survive collapse are not the ones with the best machines...
A source-grounded reading of the lecture's central reversal: if Trump's goal is to preserve the old American empire, the Iran war looks insane.
Jiang makes the Iran war a test of religious prediction: if Al-Aqsa survives and peace arrives, his model fails.
The episode begins with two escalations: Ukraine expands, Iran heats up.
The lecture starts with Putin and Ukraine, but it does not stay in policy.
