Thursday 27th May: JAMES SHERR (Chatham House) – “Russia and Ukraine – Back to Square One?” 7.30pm, Exeter

James Sherr is the head of the Russia and Eurasia Programme at Chatham House (Royal Institute of International Affairs) in London. He has published extensively on the foreign policy of the Russian Federation, NATO, and the energy relationship between Russia, Ukraine and the EU. Among his most recent publications are ‘Ukraine: Democratic Dangers‘, The World Today, January 2010 and ‘Russia: Managing Contradictions‘ in R Niblett (ed) America and a Changed World: A Question of Leadership, Wiley-Blackwell/Chatham House, 2010.

The recent presidential elections in Ukraine have been seen by many as a reversal of the changes brought about by the Orange Revolution in 2004. Mr Sherr will discuss the impact of Mr Yanukovych’s victory on both Ukraine and Russia’s foreign policy, and the resulting rapprochement between the two countries.

This event is free to EAS members, £2 for non-members.
