Description:

We are at an important inflection point in the war between Russia and Ukraine, with Russia this week announcing referendums in four occupied regions in Ukraine, the mobilization of 300,000 Russian troops, and threatening the use of nuclear weapons. In response, the US just announced new hard-hitting sanctions.

In the latest episode of CEO Perspectives, The Conference Board President and CEO Steve Odland sits down with Dr. Lori Esposito Murray, President of the Committee for Economic Development, the public policy center of The Conference Board (CED). They discuss what is currently happening in the war between Russia and Ukraine and its global economic and geo-political implications. Tune in to find out:

  • How will Russia hold the newly annexed regions given their forced retreat from these areas?
  • Why are Kremlin officials claiming that Russia is at war with NATO, not Ukraine? What purpose does this statement serve?
  • What is the potential of this conflict becoming nuclear and how does the annexation of these regions increase that likelihood?
  • What would the West’s response be to a nuclear attack?
  • What does the attack on the Nord Stream pipelines signal?
