Cold war echoes: Russia's attempts to increase global influence

Russia and Ukraine are topics dominating global headlines these days.

There are more than 100.000 Russian troops on three sides of Ukraine. What does this mean? Could this lead to an invasion?

There were meetings between the USA and Russia, a meeting among NATO ministers, EU ministers and also OSCE officials. Where do we go from here?

What is the European Parliament's stand on this?

On this occasion, Chris Burns talked to two Members of the EPP Group, Andrius Kubilius of Lithuania, ex-Prime Minister and Chair of the delegation to the Euronest Parliamentary Assembly and a Member of the delegation to the EU-Russia Parliamentary Cooperation Committee; and Michael Gahler of Germany, a Member of the Committee on Foreign Affairs and the Subcommittee on Security and Defence.

This podcast was originally recorded as a Twitter Spaces event, and we had some guests joining the discussion who we would like to thank.
