Russia’s escalation against Ukraine

Why now, and is a major conflict unavoidable?

Russia’s recent escalation at the Ukrainian border and the declared ambition for a changed European security order has provoked an international crisis that could result in a major conflict.

This roundtable will explore the crisis from a Russian, Ukrainian and a Western perspective. It also seeks to answer why now, and what can be done to prevent a major military conflict.

9 February, 17.00-18.00.
