The European Studies Group (ESG), an International Programs Affinity Group, will present a panel discussion entitled “A Year of War: Commemorating the Anniversary of Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine” on Friday, February 24, from 5:15 – 6:30 p.m., in the Iowa Theater, room 166 inside the Iowa Memorial Union (IMU).
Light refreshments will be served in the Hubbard Commons from 4:45 – 5:15 p.m. before the discussion begins.
The discussion will engage leading experts from Midwestern universities in a conversation about Russia’s war against Ukraine. The panelists will be invited to take stock of events that occurred during the year since the invasion, discuss the implications of the Russia-Ukraine conflict for global security, and consider the possible ways in which it may unfold in the future. The audience will then be invited to pose questions and offer comments.
This event is co-sponsored by the UI Department of Sociology and Criminology and the UI Department of Political Science.
