The World in Wartimes [[link removed]]
Tuesday, Nov. 21 // 10–11:15 am (ET)
The wars in the Middle East and Europe have generated political uncertainty and military instability far beyond their frontlines—and profound questions about the future. On both flashpoints, the world is increasingly divided between the West and the Global South. Alliances are being redefined, notably as Russia, China, and Iran form an increasingly tangible axis in both wars. International institutions and principles established after World War II are being challenged or collapsing under the weight of the two wars.
Four Wilson experts on the Middle East, Ukraine, Russia, and China will explore the global repercussions of the two wars—and what it means for the conflicts as well as the rest of the world.

Is Russia’s Influence in Central Asia in Decline? [[link removed]]Tuesday, Nov. 21 // 12–1:00 pm (ET)
Since the breakup of the Soviet Union in 1991, the five Central Asian states of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Turkmenistan have unquestionably established themselves as independent states. The status of their relations with their larger, more powerful neighbors, however, have been less clear cut, certainly since the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine. This panel discussion will explore Central Asia’s relations with one neighbor, Russia, from a security, a political, an economic, and a social perspective, with the goal of shedding light on the assumption that Russia’s influence in Central Asia is in decline.
