News Politics Lecture Morning on the Conflict in Ukraine 13.10.2022

Sixth Form Politics students had the opportunity to join in virtually with a series of insightful lectures on the Ukraine conflict from a range of leading academics. Professor Roy Allison from Oxford University, Dr Ramus Nilsson from UCL and Dr Joanna Szostek from Glasgow University spoke about the causes, impact and future of the Ukraine conflict. The speakers also explored specific elements of the crisis, such as the role of the Russian media, the question of nuclear weapons, and how China perceives Russian foreign policy. It was incredibly helpful to hear the perspectives of some of the world experts on this region and be able to ask questions.
