New Article by Dr Andriy TYUSHKA from the European Neighbourhood Policy Chair

Dr Andriy TYUSHKA, Senior Research Fellow in the European Neighbourhood Policy Chair at the College of Europe in Natolin, has just published an article with International Politics that discusses the dilemmas and imperatives of (re)organizing European security after the Russia-Ukraine war. 

The article argues that Russia’s unprovoked invasion of Ukraine has radically undone peace and security in Europe, broken its post-Cold War order and triggered a seismic shift in European geopolitics. Moscow’s lasting and ever-widening multilayered conflict against Ukraine, the EU, the US and NATO/West at large bears no end in sight. With the coming age of hostile coexistence with Russia, European countries grapple with how best to ensure a more robust and aggression-proof system post-war. Amidst multiple uncertainties, there is a certainty that the future European security architecture will not be complete without Ukraine, as well as there seems to be a political will to devise a security system that protects from Russia and aggression in the foreseeable future. Considering the past dynamics and the current impasse in Russia’s relationality to the European security order, this article examines the imperatives and modalities of organizing post-war European security in opposition to Russia.
