Russia's war against Ukraine caused severe disruptions to Ukraine's economy: a drastic drop in output, refugee outflows, and damage to infrastructure and production facilities. Meanwhile, the Ukrainian government has been struggling to balance its capacity to fund and supply its defense effort with keeping the civilian economy going and continuing to provide basic public services. Western financial assistance has been crucial to propping up Ukraine's public finances. What is the current state of Ukraine's economy? With the war continuing to inflict damage on Ukraine's industry, agriculture, and infrastructure, how sustainable is the current model? What are the critical factors for Ukraine's economic success after the war? How will the EU accession process mitigate and assist Ukraine's post-war economic transition?

Global Europe Program
The Global Europe Program is focused on Europe’s capabilities, and how it engages on critical global issues. We investigate European approaches to critical global issues. We examine Europe’s relations with Russia and Eurasia, China and the Indo-Pacific, the Middle East and Africa. Our initiatives include “Ukraine in Europe” – an examination of what it will take to make Ukraine’s European future a reality. But we also examine the role of NATO, the European Union and the OSCE, Europe’s energy security, transatlantic trade disputes, and challenges to democracy. The Global Europe Program’s staff, scholars-in-residence, and Global Fellows participate in seminars, policy study groups, and international conferences to provide analytical recommendations to policy makers and the media.
