In February 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine, dramatically escalating a years-long hostility. The resulting war has killed tens of thousands, displaced millions of Ukrainians, and reshaped global politics. To help us understand the history of the region and the current state of the war, we welcome Marie Yovanovitch, former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine (2016-2019), Armenia (2008-2011), and Kyrgyzstan (2005-2008). In this conversation with Museum Director, Clifford Chanin, Ambassador Yovanovitch discusses her new book, Lessons from the Edge: A Memoir, the role of diplomacy in a post-9/11 world, and the future of this devastating conflict.
