“US-Ukraine Relations: Ways Forward” Roundtable
On February 10, 2020, the Victor Pinchuk Foundation and Atlantic Council will hold a roundtable titled “US-Ukraine Relations: Ways Forward” in Kyiv, Ukraine. The US-Ukrainian relationship has come under scrutiny after Ukraine became the epicenter of the presidential impeachment inquiry in the United States. A delegation of former US ambassadors and high-level officials who remain key figures in the American foreign policy establishment are traveling to Ukraine to reiterate that support for Ukraine remains strong in the United States despite the US impeachment process. The delegation will speak about US-Ukrainian relations under Chatham House rules with representatives from the Ukrainian government and heads of political parties.
Members of the delegation include:
- Ambassador April H. Foley, Former US Ambassador to Hungary; Chair of the Board, Hungary Initiatives Foundation
- Ambassador Daniel Fried, Former US Ambassador to Poland; Weiser Family Distinguished Fellow, Atlantic Council
- Ambassador John Herbst, Former US Ambassador to Ukraine; Director, Eurasia Center, Atlantic Council
- Ambassador Steven Pifer, Former US Ambassador to Ukraine; Nonresident Fellow, Brookings Institution; William J. Perry Fellow, Stanford University
- Ambassador Alexander Vershbow, Former US Ambassador to Russia; Distinguished Fellow, Scowcroft Center, Atlantic Council
- Celeste Wallander, President & CEO, US-Russia Foundation
Following the roundtable, the delegation will speak on-the-record at a press briefing that begins at 16:00. Media registration will be open from 15:30. Applications for accreditation are accepted on the website of the Victor Pinchuk Foundation at the link until 10:00 February 10, 2020.
