ONSDAG 13 APRIL, ONLINE

On 24 February 2022, Russia waged war on Ukraine. To make sense of the reasons leading to and the likely consequences of it, we suggest taking a look at the history of Ukraine and the history of relations between Russia and Ukraine.
What is the role of history in this war, and can history provide us with a better understanding of it? What are the main objectives Russia wants to achieve with its war, and what consequences will it have for long-term developments in Ukraine and Russia?
