War in Ukraine
March 23, 2022 @ 12:15 pm - 1:15 pm
Since February 24, Americans have watched a large-scale invasion of Ukraine playing out live across our TVs, social media channels, and radios. How can we make sense of what’s happening?
On March 23, The King’s College will bring together experts in various facets of the current crisis to help explain events in Ukraine. What motivates Russians and Ukrainians? What are the consequences of the conflict for American foreign policy?
