Political science expert David Faris is available to speak on the political repercussions for Putin’s escalating invasion of Ukraine. Faris has spoken and written about the Russia-Ukraine conflict for The Week and on The Last Word with Lawrence O’Donnell.
“The worst crisis in post-war Europe demands nothing less than concerted, dramatic action aimed at Moscow's total isolation, and the time to start is now,” said Faris.
Professor Faris can explain:
- What the invasion means for U.S. foreign policy.
- Historical context for today’s conflict in Ukraine.
- How U.S. sanctions on Russia could impact the economy.
- How Biden’s decisions on Ukraine could influence the 2022 midterms.
