The war in Ukraine presents a fundamental challenge to the project of European integration, aimed at making war within Europe obsolete. The conflict also threatens the Ukrainian population’s aspirations to construct a political order and a civil society in accordance with traditional European norms and values. Two expert panels discussed Ukrainian peacemaking traditions, current conflict trends, and paths toward reconciliation.
