Russia's aggression against Ukraine, launched on 24 February, has accelerated several debates of global political and military importance. These include the renewed role of conventional military power in contemporary and future conflicts, the nature of near future warfare, and the transformation of the world order triggered by the crisis of the established international rules based order. As the prolonged Russia-West rivalry has now transformed into a quasi-open war over Ukraine, understanding adversarial failures and successes is essential to avoid the risk of making a strategic error of judgment in times of conflict. In this series Alexey will provide an overview of the war in Ukraine, discuss what led to the current crisis, and the current state of play on the battlefield and beyond. He will consider possible future courses of action by major actors involved in this conflict, and draw some preliminary conclusions on what key take-away lessons can be learned from the unfolding tragedy in eastern Europe.
