Geopolitical dynamics of the ongoing war between Ukraine and Russia are evolving and changing almost daily, with energy taking a central role in conversations about the pursuit of peace. The avoidance of damage to critical infrastructure and energy infrastructure has become increasingly central to talks, as have US-Ukraine conversations about critical minerals, which has become a key component of any negotiations on US aid to Ukraine. Questions remain about what resources the US wants, what Ukraine can provide, and whether minerals can feasibly be extracted from Ukraine. Overall, energy resources and critical minerals continue to play a prominent role in the potential for de-escalation or a peaceful resolution to the war.
This public event will be hosted via Zoom. Upon registration, a confirmation email will be sent to you with the Zoom access link for the briefing.
