Munk Dialogue with Stephen Walt
Munk Dialogue with Stephen Walt
Surprising developments in the war between Russia & Ukraine.
Ukraine is in ruins. Casualties are piling up on both sides. And western sanctions don’t seem to be working. As the war between Russia and Ukraine enters its 20th month, experts fear that a negotiated settlement will not be reached anytime soon. On this Munk Dialogue, we’re joined by one of the world’s leading realist thinkers in international relations, Stephen Walt, to talk about some surprising developments that have emerged from this conflict, and why it could drag on for much longer than anyone had anticipated.
“It was the American liberals who thought you could spread democracy all over the world and expand NATO in an open-ended fashion and it would never have any negative consequences…now they want to deny responsibility for any of this by blaming everything on Vladimir Putin.”
