Distinguished Speaker Series Book Presentation: Battleground Ukraine: From Independence to the War with Russia by Adrian Karatnycky

UIMA is pleased to present an evening with Adrian Karatnycky, Senior Fellow at the Atlantic Council and author of his newly published book, Battleground Ukraine: From Independence to the War with Russia

This is the first comprehensive English-language history of Ukraine, covering its emergence following the collapse of the Soviet Union up to the current Russian invasion.

Ukraine expert Adrian Karatnycky presents an eyewitness account of the modern Ukrainian state's history, covering the tenures of the six presidents since the USSR's collapse, including Volodymyr Zelensky. Karatnycky highlights how, despite the influence of corrupt oligarchs, Russian pressures, and the remnants of Soviet rule, an inclusive and united Ukrainian nation has emerged. This nation stands as an inspiration to the world, defending the principle that states and peoples have the right to national sovereignty.

Book will be available for sale.
