Philippine Hebert-Leroy

Originally from Paris, France, I graduated from King's College London with a BA in International Relations. Curiosity about the mechanisms behind nationalism led me to dedicate my dissertation to the influence of the Russian New Right on the Kremlin’s policies alongside several projects on the relationship between French and Russian far-right movements.

With a longstanding inclination for geopolitical strategy and defense matters, my current research at Oxford explores Russian interferences in France within the broader context of espionage and hybrid warfare. I hope for this work to contribute to a wider reflection on the architecture of European security and Russia’s role within it.
