How Dictators Negotiate: Aleksandr Lukashenko’s Role as Intermediary Between the Kremlin and the White House

Join us for the third installment of the year-long series "Russia and Its Neighbors: In Search of a New Paradigm", hosted by Dr. Yevgenia Albats!

This event will be hosted in person only. RSVP to attend.

Formerly of Time Magazine, now The Atlantic reporter Simon Shuster is one of the few western journalists who has been able to interview, at large, both Ukrainian President Zelensky and Belarusian Dictator Lukashenko. The latter has been playing intermediary between the USA and Russia. What is going on inside this European dictatorship? What is the nature of Lukashenko and Putin’s relationship? Why has reliance upon Lukashenko become a necessary evil for the West? These and many other questions will be discussed in our third event of the series Russia and Its Neighbors: In Search of a New Paradigm.
