468. James Sherr and Orysia Lutsevych - The Risks of Pushing for 'Peace at any Price' in the Ukraine War.

A letter was published in the Financial Times: Calling for an immediate
‘peace’. But this clamour for a cessation of hostilities and a ‘peace at
any price’ deal shows blind­ness to Russian goals, argue the
signatories of a counter letter in the same publication. I am joined
today by the author of the riposte to that, James Sherr, and one of the
key signatories Orysia Lutsevych.
----------

Orysia Lutsevych OBE is deputy director of the Russia and Eurasia
Programme and head of the Ukraine Forum at Chatham House. Orysia’s
research focuses on social change, the role of civil society in
democratic transition in Eastern Europe and, most recently, democratic
resilience to foreign encroachment. She is the author of several Chatham
House research publications, including – Resilient Ukraine:
Safeguarding Society from Russian Aggression. Her media work includes
contributions for BBC, CNN, Guardian, The Times, Financial Times, and
New York Times.

James Sherr OBE is an Honorary fellow of the International Centre for
Defence & Security in Tallinn Estonia. He also is an associate
fellow and former head of the Russia and Eurasia Programme at Chatham
House (2008–11). He was a fellow of the Conflict Studies Research Centre
of the UK Ministry of Defence from 1995 to 2008; and director of
studies of the Royal United Services Institute (1983–85). He has
published extensively on Soviet and Russian military, security, and
foreign policy, as well as energy security, the Black Sea region, and
Ukraine’s efforts to deal with Russia, and the West.
