Igor Lukes<\/a>, Professor of International Relations and History\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>at the Frederick S. Pardee School of Global Studies at Boston University, was interviewed for a\u00a0Boston Globe\u00a0<\/em>article in which he discusses the ongoing crisis in Ukraine and how its reverberations will be felt around the world.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The article, titled “Russian invasion of Ukraine would have global impact, specialists say<\/a>,” details the global ramifications of Russia’s encroachment of Ukraine including increased fuel prices, plummeting stock values, and increased food costs.<\/p>\n

Lukes applauded the United States’ response to Russian aggression to date arguing that the country “got ahead of the problem.” In the shadow of potential war, Lukes says that most Americans won’t feel its effects immediately; however, the long-term consequences could be profound.” Life will go on, Lukes argues, but “the United States would no longer be able to enjoy . . . a free, unrestricted world in which it could sell its products and ideas on a global scale.”<\/p>\n
