The international response to Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine | Wednesday, 12 March 2025

In this SPICe seminar Professor Luke March, Personal Chair of Post-Soviet and Comparative Politics at the University of Edinburgh and Professor Peter Jackson, Chair in Global Security at the University of Glasgow explore the current geopolitical situation in relation to Ukraine. We look to explain: 

• Russia’s approach to Ukraine and what that might also mean for countries in Eastern Europe;
• The international response to the crisis including the change of approach by the United States under President Trump; and
• Given the change of position in Washington, what Europe and NATO’s response should be and how the UK fits into the approach.

We hope you enjoy this discussion!
