National security and Foreign Affairs

A Conversation with Retired Ambassador Roman Popadiuk on the Ukrainian Invasion

Ambassador Roman Popadiuk  was the first U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine. A retired member of the career Senior Foreign Service, he served on the National Security Councils of Presidents Ronald Reagan and George Bush.  


With this conversation, Ambassador Popadiuk discusses the Ukrainian invasion.  Starting with offering why Mr. Putin invaded the Ukraine, Ambassador Popadiuk spotlights some aspects and unintended consequences of the invasion, for which Putin may not have anticipated.    


He discusses how changing the overall global security map may well be one of Mr. Putin’s desires.   


Amidst a long history of oppression, starvation and war, the Ukrainian people also have a history of resilience and survival. With the current invasion, Ambassador Popaduik further discusses Ukrainian resilience and survival.   


He moves on to spotlight what he believes the view of the Russian people of Ukraine today to be in 2022 and how they are reacting to the current invasion.   


Could the Russian Ukrainian Invasion could escalate into a conflict, even war, between NATO, perhaps the United States and Russia, or not? With a potential threat of the use of tactical nuclear weapons by Mr. Putin, might the Ukrainian Invasion be considered a novel situation, perhaps not?   


Ambassador Popadiuk also  highlights his thoughts on whether the Ukrainian Invasion can be solved diplomatically, or not.      


With the invasion of Ukraine, is China's President Xi a cohort of Mr. Putin?   In the months ahead, will the Russian invasion of Ukraine become too much for Putin to Control?  


In closing, with Russia having ancestral roots common to Ukraine, Ambassador Popadiuk discusses whether Mr. Putin and his actions are a reflection of both his and the traditional Russian view of Ukraine.
