This episode of EuropeChats focusses on the foreign and security policy of the European Union, in particular the transformation it has gone through since the start of Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine. This episode was recorded in November 2022 shortly after the Ukrainian liberation of Kherson. With Ukraine’s victory becoming more and more plausible, TEPSA Executive Director asks special guest Benjamin Tallis where the EU and its 27 Member States stand between unity and division. How ready are they to support Ukraine in the coming months?
