The UW-Madison Center for Russia, East Europe, and Central Asia (CREECA) invites MCFR members to view this panel discussion.


Mass protest movements have challenged election results in Belarus and Kyrgyzstan, provoking different responses from the incumbent regimes that declared themselves winners of the balloting. Full-scale combat has erupted between Armenia and Azerbaijan in the area around the disputed territory of Nagorno-Karabakh. Meanwhile, fighting continues between Russia-backed secessionist forces and government troops in Eastern Ukraine. What are the main roots of these conflagrations and how are they unfolding? Should each be understood as distinct, or do they have enough common features to suggest a general pattern or new trend? What challenges or opportunities do they pose for Russia and for the United States? What do they teach us about politics and conflict in post-Soviet countries?
