This public event explores the evolving European integration paths of Armenia and Georgia.

The Groningen Institute for Central and Eastern European Studies (GICEES) would like to cordially invite you to attend an engaging and thought-provoking conference.

During the lecture, the speaker Dr. Kseniya Oksamytna (City University of London) will present her article “Imperialism, supremacy, and the Russian invasion of Ukraine” published in Contemporary Security Policy in 2023.

From limited interactions in the early 1990s, the EU and Central Asia now consider each other to be increasingly important. During this roundtable, the speakers will discuss the many aspects of these interactions.

This talk will look into the position and role of the Caspian and Aral seas and their respective littorals in the regions’ social transformation in the modern era. What role and function did these ‘inland seas’ had in imperial annexation and integration, for example?

This presentation analyses how the war in Ukraine affects Central Asia, a region that is historically, politically and economically tied to Russia.

The current conflict in Ukraine has created the most severe crisis between Russia and the West since the end of the Cold War. Ukraine’s fate hangs in the balance.
