The world is shocked at the headlines: Russia attacks Ukraine. This unprovoked act of aggression flies in the face of all accepted international norms — and brings with it so many questions. How might this play out and what could it mean for geopolitics and security in the region? How will Ukraine and international allies respond? Could Putin's pushback on NATO backfire for Putin? What is the response of the Russian people to this conflict? Is Putin's "historical" justification for the invasion linked to Russia's broader misinformation campaigns and larger quest for power and legacy? Could this be the most serious potential conflict since WWII —and what are possible outcomes? Join WorldOregon for this online rapid-response program featuring Dr. Sarah Henderson, Associate Professor of Political Science, Oregon State University.
