Please give me a single example backing up the claim that Quincy Institute is "a thoroughly pro-Russian think tank"

On their page "Quincy Institute’s Position on Russia-Ukraine" they say at the very beginning:

> We categorically condemn Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine, and support U.S. assistance for Ukraine’s self-defense.

It has been suggested that QI’s approach is insufficiently critical of Russia.

Followed by the sentence "A cursory search of our writings and our website shows this to be false."

Would you honestly genuinely describe this as "a thoroughly pro-Russian think tank"? Dishonesty

It is clear that the opinion it's pro-Russian is widespread enough they need to make advance disclaimers. You wanted "a single example backing up the claim", you got one - from the horse's mouth.
You have again failed to meet the characterization of "a thoroughly pro-Russian think tank". If you are unable to find any actual evidence that fits that description then you should just admit as much
I refuse to believe you continue to miss the point explained to you several times. Being intentionally obtuse is not a great look.
All I'm asking for is a single article or published piece that you can characterize as "thoroughly pro-Russia". You routinely fail to provide this

I'm setting the bar really low here

you have angered the russian bots, be careful.
