The allies have to find a way to end the war without sacrificing Ukraine in the process.
The Russia and Eurasia Program continues Carnegie’s long tradition of independent research on major political, societal, and security trends in and U.S. policy toward a region that has been upended by Russia’s war against Ukraine. Leaders regularly turn to our work for clear-eyed, relevant analyses on the region to inform their policy decisions.

The Return of Global Russia project examines the Kremlin’s return to the world stage as an ambitious and capable actor not only around its periphery and in Europe, but in many parts of the world where its influence has often been written off. The project explores Russian intentions, capabilities, and practical Western policy options for how and when to respond to this challenge.

The allies have to find a way to end the war without sacrificing Ukraine in the process.
A string of coups across Africa since 2020 has allowed Moscow to strengthen its position on the continent, even as it funnels vast military and economic resources into the war in Ukraine.
The security agreements between Ukraine and its partners contain important commitments for ensuring Ukraine’s long-term defense and deterrence capabilities. Still, there is significant room to make their design more credible and durable.
It’s the logical next step since Putin’s quest for victory in Ukraine has stalled.
Beijing Has No Interest in a Peace Agreement It Can’t Help Broker
A discussion on topics from Russia’s culminated offensive on Kharkiv, to battlefields of the Donbas, to ongoing fighting in the south, to Russia’s displaced Black Sea Fleet
Two years into Russia’s full-scale war against Ukraine, a Carnegie-sponsored opinion poll found that Ukrainians still believe strongly in their national cause, even as doubts creep in about the path to victory.
Russia is making advances toward Kharkiv, Ukraine's second-largest city, and it's continuing to make small but important gains along the front lines. Ukraine is struggling with a shortage of troops and ammunition, and this summer could be pivotal if Ukraine isn't able to stop the Russian offensive.
Western diplomacy regarding the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict has unwittingly helped Russia’s effort to reassert its influence in the region.
Ukraine faces its most difficult moment on the battlefield since the early days of Russia’s full-scale invasion. U.S. aid is finally on its way after Congress’s months long delay, but will it be enough to help Ukrainian forces stabilize their positions?
