REES Statement on the Russian War Against Ukraine

On February 24, 2022, on the order of Vladimir Putin, Russian armed forces invaded the souverain country of Ukraine. This assault is accompanied by a barrage of lies and historical falsehood to justify Russian aggression.  

The faculty of Russian, East European and Eurasian Studies Program strongly condemn this war, which has brought death and suffering to the people of Ukraine, which could undermine Ukraine's statehood, and which threatens the security and peace in the region.

If the answer to any of the above is yes, then look no further!
