Originally live streamed on July 16 2020 - In the newest edition of New Eastern Europe we conduct a special debate on what impact COVID-19 may have on the shifting geopolitics in the region of Eastern Europe. We asked a group of experts for their input and analysis on how relations between Europe, the Eastern Partnership and Russia could develop as a result of the pandemic and what might come next. Will this virus and the crisis fundamentally change relations and geopolitics – and if so in what way? This discussion features four authors from that special section. Speakers include:– Richard Giragosian is the founding director of the Regional Studies Center (RSC), an independent think tank in Yerevan, Armenia.– Alena Kudzko is the director of the GLOBSEC policy institute.– Andrey Makarychev is a visiting professor at the Johan Skytte Institute of Political Studies at the University of Tartu in Estonia.– Karina Shyrokykh is a researcher at Stockholm University and Swedish Institute of International Affairs.– The discussion is moderated by Adam Reichardt, Editor in Chief of New Eastern EuropeLearn more about New Eastern Europe - www.neweasterneurope.eu
