About the event 

"Russia's War on Ukraine"

with Lt. Col. (ret) Alexander Vindman
Former Director for European Affairs for the U.S. National Security Council

About the Event

In February of 2022, Russia ignited the largest conventional war in Europe since World War II. The war has featured a stunning combination of grueling World War I style trench warfare with an unprecedented use of modern drones and missiles. Ukrainian grit and innovation supported by extensive military aid from the United States and NATO prevented a Russian victory but locked the country in a brutal contest of attrition. Questions about the causes of the war and how it can end are perhaps the most important foreign policy challenges of the new U.S. administration. Alex Vindman, a regional expert who has been at the heart of U.S. strategy, will provide his thoughts on Russia’s war on Ukraine.
