The Talbott Papers on Implications of Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine

Named in honor of American statesman and former Brookings Institution President Strobe Talbott, “The Talbott Papers on Implications of Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine” is a series of policy analyses that aims to understand the conflict in Ukraine in its various dimensions, seek ways to help end the war and repair its damage, adjust trans-Atlantic and European security organizations and policies to handle the fundamentally changed strategic landscape that has resulted from the war, and assess the broader global implications of the conflict including for Asia, the Middle East, and the global South, as well as food and energy markets and the world economy more broadly.

--FILE--Chinese peacekeepers line up during a departure ceremony before flying to South Sudan for UN peacekeeping missions at Jinan Yaoqiang International Airport in Jinan city, east China's Shandong province, 7 April 2015. China will contribute 8,000 troops for a United Nations peacekeeping standby force, China's President Xi Jinping told the United Nations General Assembly on Monday (28 September 2015), a move that could make it one of the largest players in U.N. peacekeeping efforts. Xi's pledge comes as China is trying to show it is a responsible international player amid concern over its growing military might and territorial disputes in the Asia-Pacific region. During a state visit to Washington on Friday, Xi agreed with U.S. President Barack Obama that both countries would increase their "robust" peacekeeping commitments. "China will join the new U.N. peacekeeping capability readiness system, and has thus decided to lead in setting up a permanent peacekeeping police squad and build a peacekeeping standby force of 8,000 troops," Xi said. No Use China. No Use France.
