Ukraine War: The Human Cost, Economic Consequences, and the Search for Peace | The CFS Review
The war in Ukraine has continued since Russia's full-scale invasion in February 2022, with devastating human and economic consequences. Hundreds of thousands have died, enormous amounts of property have been destroyed, and the prospects for lasting peace remain uncertain.
In this episode of The CFS Review, we look beyond the headlines to consider what Russia wants, what Ukraine can reasonably accept, and what role the United States and Europe should play in bringing this conflict to an end.
We examine the renewed diplomatic efforts, the challenges facing the Trump administration, the financial burden of the war, and the estimated $588 billion required for Ukraine's recovery and reconstruction.
Most importantly, we consider the distinction between ending the fighting and establishing a lasting, enforceable peace that protects innocent lives, respects national sovereignty, and reduces the risk of another war.
Peace for the sake of peace isn't necessarily peace.
