The Russian invasion has ended the post-Cold War era in Europe bringing war and death, civilian casualties, and refugees to Ukraine. The panel of Lund University experts will consider: Why history matters to the invasion and conflict? What does the invasion mean for Putin’s Russia, Ukraine, and beyond? What is the impact of the invasion on Sweden, Europe, and the rest of the world? The panellists bring a diversity of expertise from Central and Eastern European Studies, Middle East Studies, Peace and Conflict Studies, and Political Science:
