Join us for two special forums on the war in Ukraine. Please share the details below with any students or colleagues that may be interested in attending.

War in Ukraine
March 3 2022
1-2:30 pm
Virtual event

Four experts from UCR's departments of History and Political Science will discuss how the conflict between Russia and the Ukraine could escalate into a full-blown war of historical dimensions. Why does Putin take such a gamble? What are the historical reasons behind Russia's claims on Ukrainian territory? Which economic and political interests are involved? How do Ukrainian and Russian cultures differ, what do they have in common? And: Are there ways out of this war - before it spreads?
