War in Ukraine: A Conversation with the EURUS Community

On February 24, Russia invaded Ukraine, claiming that it aimed to “denazify” and “demilitarize” the country. Russian military actions have left thousands of civilians dead or wounded, and millions displaced. The consequences of this invasion will have untold implications for Ukraine, Russia, the West, and the world.

The Institute of European, Russian and Eurasian Studies is hosting a discussion board to provide up-to-date, real-time analysis of the conflict and a broader understanding of its historical, societal and geopolitical contexts. As the war develops, experts on the topic and other related issues will write in conversation with one another from a variety of perspectives.
