Changes in Ukrainian foreign policy since February 2022 and perspectives from Central and Eastern Europe
Date/Time
February 24, 2023
19:00 - 20:30 CEST/CET
One year on from the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the war still rages. The recent decision taken by Germany, the United States and other NATO member states to send tanks to Ukraine indicates that we are entering a new phase in the conflict.
With this in mind, the Institute for the Danube Region and Central Europe (IDM) is hosting a roundtable of experts on Ukraine to discuss the role of Ukraine in the region and changes in the foreign policy of Ukraine since the invasion.
The roundtable is also a chance to reflect on February’s Ukraine-EU summit as well as to mark the publication of the book “Ukraine in Central and Eastern Europe: Kyiv’s Foreign Affairs and the International Relations of the Post-Communist Region”. In attendance are some of the book’s contributors, who will offer their insights into Ukraine’s role in Central and Eastern Europe.
