Event | Engaging With Separatist Territories in Europe’s East

Twenty-five years after the end of the Soviet Union, the map of Eastern Europe still contains a number of de facto separatist states created by conflict. International actors face the dilemma of choosing the right kind of interaction with territories from Abkhazia to South Ossetia to Transdniestria. Carnegie’s Thomas de Waal, an expert on the conflict regions of the former Soviet Union, discussed the findings of his latest article, entitled “Enhancing the EU’s Engagement With Separatist Territories,” with Magdalena Grono, program director for Europe and Central Asia at the International Crisis Group, and Andrei Popov, president of the Moldovan Institute for Strategic Initiatives and a former deputy minister of foreign affairs and European integration of Moldova. Fredrik Wesslau, director of the Wider Europe Program and senior policy fellow at the European Council on Foreign Relations, moderated.
