SUMMARY:Russia’s Full-Scale Attack on Ukraine: A View from Berlin
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Earlier this week\, President Vladimir V. Putin recognized two Russia-backed separatist territories in Ukraine – the so-called Donetsk and Luhansk People’s Republics – and ordered the Russian military into those regions to carry out “peacekeeping functions.” After months of amassing troops along the border with Ukraine\, in the early hours of Thursday\, February 24\, Russia launched simultaneous attacks from the north\, east\, and south on major cities\, airports\, and ports in Ukraine. \nWith a full-scale attack underway\, major western countries have reacted with outrage at Russia’s invasion. U.S. President Joe Biden said that “President Putin has chosen a premeditated war that will bring a catastrophic loss of life and human suffering.” European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen said Mr. Putin was “responsible for bringing war back to Europe.” And\, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz called this “Putin’s war” and said the Russian leader would pay a “bitter price” for his “serious error.” \nJoin the American Council on Germany for a conversation with Dr. Claudia Major\, Head of the International Security Research Division at the German Institute for International and Security Affairs (SWP) in Berlin\, about the unfolding conflict.[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Register Here” style=”classic” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fus02web.zoom.us%2Fwebinar%2Fregister%2F8116457297313%2FWN_kWmnPsWDRa2fm1_B-I0Myg” css=”.vc_custom_1645729762355{background-color: #1e73be !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column_text]Dr. Claudia Major is Head of the International Security Research Division at the German Institute for International and Security Affairs (SWP) in Berlin.
