Senator Mary Seery Kearney | This House Regrets the West's Approach to Russia | Cambridge Union

Senator Mary Seery Kearney speaks as the second opposition on the motion at 8:00pm in the Debating Chamber on Thursday 16th May 2024.
For the last decade, our relationship with Russia has been central to foreign policy discourse. With the invasion of Ukraine and wars in Georgia and Chechnya before that, this debate asks whether the last thirty years of Western-Russian relations have been an inevitable path to their current dire state. Could this relationship have been different had Western governments responded more forcefully to early expansionism or by engaging more openly with Russia before its abhorrent military actions?
