OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

This event will look at the military situation unfolding in Ukraine—how the invasion has developed, and what we know now about both militaries—and examines its political implications for Ukraine, Russia, NATO countries, and globally. Prussian general and military theorist Carl von Clausewitz famously remarked that war is the continuation of politics by other means. But he also noted that war is ‘the realm of uncertainty’ and ‘the realm of chance’, with unanticipated outcomes on the battlefield changing the political calculus. Given this uncertainty, how might the war in Ukraine end, if indeed it does?
