This week’s Munk Members podcast digs into the latest developments out the War in Ukraine. First up, where are we at thirty days into this conflict? Is the Russian military and resolve of Vladimir Putin crumbling in the face of what looks like an increasing statement on many of the key battlegrounds inside Ukraine? What could an end game for the conflict look like if Russian war aims are slipping away while Ukraine resolve is surging? And, finally, the economic fallout of the war is fast becoming apparent in sky high commodity prices including energy. What is the likely effects of the war on rocketing inflation levels? How are policy makers going to push back against the threat of a stagflationary future?
