This week, the panel will focus on the Russian war in Ukraine. First, we will discuss expectations for the long-anticipated Ukrainian counteroffensive. Second, we will assess the internal stability of Putin’s regime and the role of Prigozhin’s Wagner Group. Then, we will turn to the West. While Western support has been indispensable, there are signs of war fatigue across the Atlantic alliance. How could NATO’s relations with Ukraine evolve after the next summit of its heads of state and government that will take place in Vilnius this July?
