Vladimir Socor (born 1945 in Romania, Jewish origin) is a American veteran analyst of East European affairs for the Jamestown Foundation and its Eurasia Daily Monitor. He is a specialist in former republics of the USSR, CIS affairs and ethnic conflicts. He is a resident of Germany.
Between 1983 and 1994, Socor worked as an analyst for the Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty Research Institute in Munich and between 2002 and 2004 was a senior fellow of the Institute for Advanced Strategic and Political Studies, a right wing think tank funded by Jewish hardliners dedicated to scrapping the Middle East peace process in favor of attacks on states like Syria and Iraq.
Since 2000, he contributes a regular column to the European edition of The Wall Street Journal. Prior to the Iraq war, he advocated a "U.S.-led war to rid Iraq of Saddam Hussein and weapons of mass destruction," not giving any evidence of the presence of such weapons of mass destruction.
Socor is also critical of Russian president Vladimir Putin's policies regarding the Post-Soviet space and their frozen conflicts — most notably Transnistria, Abkhazia and South Ossetia. The Economist describes him as "hawkish pro-Moldovan."
Vladimir Socor has been harshly criticized by the head of the OSCE mission to Moldova, former State Department official William Hill who accused Socor of fallacies and "outrageous fabrications" in Socor's reporting in 2001 and again in 2005.
