How did European policy after the Cold War shape the path to Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine?
In this episode of Origins of the War, Michael Kimmage is joined by Constanze Stelzenmüller of the Brookings Institution for a conversation on the evolution of European policy toward Central and Eastern Europe after 1991, Germany’s role in the Minsk diplomacy of 2014 and 2015, and the broader European and transatlantic context surrounding the origins of Russia’s war against Ukraine.
Together, they examine how European policy evolved after the Cold War and how diplomatic efforts, security debates, and transatlantic relations shaped the road to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in 2022.
A conversation on European security, diplomacy, and the historical decisions that continue to influence the war today.
Recorded as part of the Kennan Institute’s Origins of the War series.
