In recent weeks, disturbing footage of unarmed Ukrainian prisoners of war (PoWs) and civilians being shot and executed in Ukraine and Russia’s Kursk region has emerged. Such acts are a gross violation of the Geneva Convention. Furthermore, Russian torture of Ukrainian civilians and prisoners of war is a crime against humanity.

During this edition of EPC Talks Geopolitics with Dmytro Lubinets, Ukrainian Parliament Commissioner for Human Rights, we will delve into Ukraine’s efforts to return prisoners of war and highlight these grave human rights violations. This discussion will explore the fourth point of Ukraine’s Peace Formula, and shed light on how the EU, and other international partners and organisations can help Ukraine get justice for these heinous acts.
Participation is open to EPC members, the media, EU officials, invitees of the Mission of Ukraine to the EU

The Europe in the World (EiW) Programme scrutinises the impact of a changing international system on Europe and probes how the EU and its member states can advance their interests and values on a regional and global level. It examines the EU’s relations with both major and middle powers around the world, and how Europe can continue to contribute to a rules-based global order. Secondly, the Programme focuses on the role of the EU in fostering reform, resilience and stability in neighbouring regions and looks closely at developments in Turkey and Ukraine, among other countries. Thirdly, the Programme examines and seeks to advance the development of Europe’s security and defence policy.
