Economies Under Siege, Paths for Reconstruction

Online, 27 May (3pm GMT; 4pm CET; 5pm EET/Minsk)

The consequences of the war for Ukraine’s economy have been immense, and there will be colossal rebuilding costs in the future. Some argue seized Russian assets should be given to Ukraine to fund its military and contribute to post-war rebuilding. Meanwhile, Belarus’s economy has resorted to extraordinary measures in response to sectoral sanctions, though reported macroeconomic trends confound expectations. This webinar will explore these issues.

Registration closes at 8:00 GMT on 27 May 2024
