Remote Warfare Podcast

Before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, violent conflict had been ongoing since 2014 in part of Ukraine’s eastern regions, the Donbas. In this episode, we discuss Global Public Policy Institute (GPPi)’s study on Ukrainian perspectives on peace, specifically the two groups that have been severely impacted by the conflict: veterans of the Donbas and internally displaced people residing in eastern Ukraine. We also talk about how the lessons and recommendations from this study stand up to the realities of the current conflict in Ukraine. To discuss this, our hosts are joined by: Julia Friedrich, a research fellow at the GPPi in Berlin and author of the study ““What should we have to say about it?” Perspectives on Peace in Eastern Ukraine”. Oleksiy Malnyk, Co-Director of Foreign Relations and International Security Programmes at the Razumkov Centre, Kiev.
