30 June 鈥 1 July 2015

Sidney Sussex College, 澳门六合彩开奖记录

An international conference on the future of Polish-Ukrainian relations.

Since 1989, Poland and Ukraine have developed a constructive political relationship that may stand as one of the most remarkable political and social achievements of recent European history. Yet hopes for the future have also听been intertwined with more difficult discussions of an often tumultuous shared past.

At this conference, we听considered how the delicate negotiation between past and future听might continue to develop in circumstances of increasing regional instability after Russia鈥檚 invasion of Ukraine. In this broad context of external threat, we proposed to re-examine the foundation of strong Polish-Ukrainian relations, which have become crucially important for Europe鈥檚 future.

By bringing together scholars and stakeholders from diverse intellectual and political spheres, we cultivated an open exchange of ideas yielding coherent new pathways for the future development of Polish-Ukrainian relations.
