The Changing Face of the Russian-Ukraine War - an Inquiry into the Past, Present & Future

In today's episode of The Global Review, podcast officers Han Hor and Adele Kavaliauskaite sit down with Tim Judah, a Special Correspondent for the Economist, to discuss the Russian-Ukraine War. As of the 24th of February, 2024, the full-scale war between Russia and Ukraine has entered its third year. What started out as an ambitious Blitz-krieg, with Vladimir Putin expecting to take Kyiv within just 3 days, has evolved into an exhausting stalemate for both sides across a roughly 1,000 kilometre long front-line. The human impact of the war is not to be underestimated. The UNHCR, for instance, estimates over 6 million Ukrainian refugees across Europe, though the figures of internally displaced people remain of equal concern. In today’s episode of The Global Review, we look forward to analysing the war through three key focus points: The Russian and Ukrainian strategies, the role of the International and finally, the future of the conflict. Join us as we delve into the roles of the leaders, military and public morale along the front, the international blocs, and the wider geopolitical consequences of this monumental war for bodies such as the EU and NATO.
