Since February 24, 2022, the world has been a different place - on that day Russia began an invasion of Ukraine in violation of international law. It is a war that has already cost many human lives and triggered the largest movement of refugees within Europe since the Second World War.
What are the historical reasons behind this war, what influence does it have on international politics, and what social and societal tasks will it impose on Europe and the world?
On March 9, 2022 at 4 p.m., four experts from Chemnitz University of Technology will talk about these and other topics as part of an online panel. The panel will be broadcast via the video conference platform Zoom and is open to all interested parties.

- Prof. Dr. Kai Oppermann, head of the Professorship of International Relations at Chemnitz University of Technology and expert in international policy.
