As a continuation of our series of discussions on the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, join us for a virtual conversation with Investigative Journalist Tim Mak, who will participate live from Kyiv. During this discussion, Tim will share his observations and analysis of how Ukraine is innovating its military capabilities to respond to Russia’s aggression, drawing lessons that can be useful for modernizing global deterrence strategies against aggressors.
Tim has been reporting from Ukraine since the day Russia invaded. He also launched a trade publication called Counteroffensive Pro, which reports on Ukraine’s defense innovation that is being driven by battlefield developments.
Due to the sensitive nature of the conversation, this event will be held under Chatham House Rule.
