Ukraine and Russia have been at war for the past four years, or has it been twelve years? Or has it been longer?

Discussing the topic of the Russo-Ukrainian War is Dr. Rachel Epstein, a professor of international relations.

During our conversation, Dr. Epstein unfolds why Ukraine’s political direction matters, how the war is viewed around the world, and what shows the conflict may last years instead of than months.

How did 1990's optimism about Russia turn into Europe’s bloodiest conflict since World War 2?

Did the Cold War really end? What does it mean that humanity continues to live under the shadow of nuclear weapons—and is it possible to manage tools capable of our own destruction?

This is a long-form interview on nuclear weapons, deterrence, ethics, and international security with Dr. Debak Das, Assistant Professor of Peace and Security.

We discuss how nuclear weapons shape global politics, the ethical consequences of their possession and potential use, and why the most destructive tools ever created by humanity remain central to security debates today.
