More than two years after the Kyiv protests, the crisis in eastern Ukraine threatens to settle into a frozen conflict between the central government and separatists. While the Minsk II ceasefire agreement appears to have tempered the violence, a permanent resolution seems elusive. Meanwhile, relations between Russia and the West remain tense—and increasingly complicated by Russia’s intervention in Syria.

What stands in the way of a durable peace? What remains to be done by the West? Join Marvin Kalb for a discussion on Ukraine’s past ghosts and future hopes.
