Transatlantic Forum on Russia

The Transatlantic Forum on Russia facilitates dialogue between experts from the United States and Europe on Russia, identifies challenges that Russia poses, and forges necessary transatlantic responses. Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine prompted significant changes both in Europe and inside Russia, as well as ripple effects that are reverberating much further afield. Through its working groups and flagship bi-annual symposiums, The Transatlantic Forum on Russia helps forge a shared understanding of these changes and the nature of the Russian threat that the allies now confront. By sharing assessments on current and future challenges posed by the Kremlin and generating creative strategies for how to address them, the Forum seeks to support the sustained transatlantic cohesion and coordination that is necessary for dealing with the evolving but persistent Russia challenge.
