Title
- Unintended Consequences: How the War in Ukraine Impacts Global Energy and Food Security
Summary
- The Russian invasion of Ukraine has led major European countries to completely reevaluate their energy policy and to consider alternatives to Russian oil and gas. Meanwhile, consumers in both the U.S. and Europe are facing higher costs for gasoline and transportation. Because Ukraine is one of the largest contributors to the United Nations World Food Program, the war also threatens to disrupt food supplies to countries in need. Join Library of Congress Chair in U.S.-Russia Relations Andrew Weiss, Columbia University's Jonathan Elkind, and Caitlin Welsh from the Center for Strategic and International Studies for a broad-ranging discussion on how the war in Ukraine is impacting global energy policy and food security.
