The terrible events unfolding in Ukraine as a result of Putin’s invasion mean suffering and misery for millions. The ramifications will not just be felt in Ukraine and Russia, but across Europe and the globe for years to come.

We also revisit our previous work to show the context of the crisis and to draw lessons for the future.
