Join Hudson Institute Senior Fellow Peter Rough, Heritage Foundation foreign policy expert Luke Coffey and NATO officials David Cattler and Ambassador Baiba Braže for a discussion on Russia’s most recent incursions into Ukraine and the role of NATO in deterring Russian aggression.
Last month, Russia completed its concentration of large-scale military forces along its border to Ukraine, raising the specter of an escalation in hostilities between Russian-backed separatist forces and Kyiv. Although Moscow announced a military pullback after a tense period, the situation remains on a knife’s edge as NATO continues to attempt to deter Russian aggression. What does this portend for the future of the region, and how can NATO best support Ukrainian sovereignty and deter Russian aggression? Join Hudson Institute for this timely discussion.
