Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 challenged much of the common Western understanding of Russia. How can the world better understand Russia? What are the steps forward for Western policy? The Eurasia Center’s new “Russia Tomorrow” series seeks to reevaluate conceptions of Russia today and better prepare for its future tomorrow.

On Thursday, October 23 at 11:00 a.m. ET, the Atlantic Council’s Eurasia Center hosts an event launching the newest report in its pathbreaking Russia Tomorrow series on Russia’s new set of partners in its war against Ukraine—China, Iran, and North Korea—and the complicated nature of Russia’s relationship with these revisionist powers.

In the newest Russia Tomorrow report, The CRINKs: Russia’s new partners in its war against Ukraine, author Angela Stent, senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, examines the role of Russia’s allies in the Kremlin’s war on Ukraine and Putin’s broader goal for a “post-West” global order.

Andrew D’Anieri, associate director at the Eurasia Center, moderates a panel discussion on Russia’s evolving relationship with “the CRINK” and how the United States can best contain the group’s ambitions in Ukraine and beyond.

New policy: In-person attendees will be required to show photo ID upon arrival, and no on-site registration will be permitted. Guests will not be admitted later than twenty minutes after the event’s start time. Registration for this event will close at 5:00 p.m. ET the day prior.
