Join us for the presentation of Putin’s Revenge: Why Russia Invaded Ukraine by Lucian Kim, a journalist with years of experience covering events in Ukraine and Russia.
In his new book, the author provides an in-depth analysis of the path to war: from Ukraine’s 2004 Orange Revolution and the 2014 Maidan uprising to the full-scale invasion. He examines the conflict in the broader context of the Soviet Union’s collapse and shares unique insights from his firsthand reporting on key events of this period. The book offers fresh details and analysis that shed new light on a war that has shaken the post-Cold War order.
