The Minsk Agreements: A Retrospective Analysis

Peace agreements are meant to resolve conflicts, but what happens when they don’t hold? The Minsk Agreements were designed to bring stability to eastern Ukraine, yet they ultimately failed. Why did these agreements collapse? What role did international actors play in their design and implementation? And what lessons can be drawn from this experience? In this episode, host Heba Bawaieh speaks with Dr. Paul Williams and Professor Milena Sterio to explore the complexities of the Minsk Agreements and their broader implications. They discuss how the agreements were structured, the challenges of implementation, and the political dynamics that shaped their fate.
