Securing Ukraine's Future
The war in Ukraine is now in its third year with no end in sight. Ensuring that Ukraine is able to resist and survive Russia's full-scale invasion such that peace and security is restored to Europe will thus remain a policy priority for the United States for the foreseeable future. With this goal in mind, The Council's Special Initiative on the war in Ukraine provides timely, informed analysis and practical policy recommendations for U.S. policymakers and the American public.
