After its war of aggression on Ukraine, Russia is politically isolated, economically increasingly dependent on China, and culturally and socially more divided than ever. While a significant part of Russia’s population supports the war, the country is experiencing an intellectual exodus. The conversation between the three writers will focus on the situation of Russian intellectuals in exile and expectations for the future of Russia.

Moderation: Vladimir Velminski
Language: Russian, Polish, German
