SUMMARY:Looking Ahead in Ukraine: What Could Increase the Risk of Escalation?
DESCRIPTION:RAND Corporation | Virtual & In-Person Event \nDescription: As U.S. lawmakers debate the question of continued defense and humanitarian aid to Ukraine\, the Ukrainian fight to expel Russian invaders continues with no end in sight. The stalemate on the front lines in Ukraine masks continued intense fighting and demands for resources on both sides that may drive longer-term changes—on the battlefield\, inside Russia\, and beyond. This could lead to further escalation\, including the potential to turn the conflict into a wider war. Understanding which circumstances and policies may risk escalation in Ukraine is paramount: not only are decisions about supporting Ukraine critical to the long-term trajectory of the conflict but also the United States confronts a broad set of challenges across the globe. \nPlease join RAND’s National Security Research Division on Tuesday\, December 5\, 2023\, 9:30 – 11:00 am ET\, for a moderated panel discussion about which circumstances or policies may risk escalation in Ukraine—either deliberate or inadvertent—and the potential triggers and restraining factors likely to shape Russian escalation decisions in particular. \nThe registration link can be found below.
