The Institute for Foreign Affairs and Trade in collaboration with
The Sasakawa Peace Foundation
cordially invite you to a public webinar
entitled
“Ukraine Crisis and International Prospects
– Perspectives from Japan, Perspectives from Europe -”
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, which began on February 24, 2022, is an extremely serious situation that shakes the foundation of international order not only in Europe but also in Asia. With NATO concerned that President Putin’s objectives do not stop at Ukraine, support and solidarity for Ukraine as well as economic and social encirclement against Russia are being built in the international community. In this context, Central Europe, which was once embedded in the Eastern camp, analyzes the current situation as more critical and more imminent.
