The world has watched in horror as Russia has invaded Ukraine, causing a massive humanitarian crisis. Among the main responses from Western nations has been a major ramping up of economic and targeted sanctions on Russia and Russian individuals. The sanctions have already resulted in significant damage: The Central Bank of Russia’s foreign assets and reserves in G7 countries have been frozen; the Russian rouble has collapsed; numerous international financial transactions have been blocked.
Presented by the Chair on Ukrainian Studies and CIPS
In the past several days, the Russian attack on Ukraine has intensified, with several cities (Kyiv, Kharkiv, Mariupol, Sumy, Chernihiv and many others) under intense bombardments with the number of civilian casualties rising rapidly. Yet the Ukrainian army, government, and civilian population continue to display remarkable resilience.

Presented by CIPS and the Security Studies Network
What is the role of Yemeni actors in peace-making in Yemen? Much international debate and analysis focuses on the role of regional and international powers and of the UN, but the role of local actors – including civil society, tribes, in addition to the Diaspora – tends to be neglected. In this panel, Nadwa Al-Dawsari and Farea Al-Muslimi will therefore discuss the role of these and other Yemeni actors in the prospects for peace in Yemen in 2022.
