As Russia continues its invasion of Ukraine, Ukrainian citizens continue to fight and struggle against violence, misinformation, and a lack of resources. However, there continue to be stories of resilience and determination. Join Elina Beketova, CEPA fellow and Ukrainian journalist, as she shares her perspective on the ongoing conflict and its impact on those on the ground in Ukraine. Beketova will be joined in a moderated conversation by Natalia Feduschak, a former Kyiv Post staff writer who has written for leading publications including the Wall Street Journal Europe, the Washington Times and the Denver Post.

Beketova will give us a look into life in both Russian-occupied and Ukrainian-controlled territories, including the changing of Ukrainian textbooks for Russian texts and the struggle of families to try and access accurate information. She will tell the stories of the people who remain in Ukraine, facing violence and detention as they try to navigate an ongoing conflict. She will place the invasion of Ukraine in the perspective of European security and answer the question “why is it important on a global scale, to liberate all of the occupied territories in Ukraine?”

Join us for this up-to-date focus on both the daily lives and global policy impacts of ongoing struggle in Ukraine.
