The Future of Russia’s War in Ukraine
A year after Russia invaded Ukraine, the war continues to accrue appalling costs in lives and treasure with no end in sight, leaving those across the political spectrum to wonder how this war ends. What might year two bring? And what are the best options for protecting Ukraine’s independence, ending Russian aggression, and keeping the US and Ukraine’s neighbors out of the war? Join George Beebe and Ivo Daalder for a debate about what it will take to end Russia’s war in Ukraine, co-sponsored by the Quincy Institute and the Chicago Council on Global Affairs. Jessica Tuchman Mathews, distinguished fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, will moderate. The conversation will take place on Thursday, March 9, from 6:30 – 7:15 pm EST / 5:30 – 6:15 CST.
