How Wars End | So kann der Ukraine-Krieg enden

May 25, 2023

An end of the war between Russia and Ukraine is not yet in sight. But in what possible ways could the conflict eventually come to an end? The German YouTube channel “MrWissen2go“, a joint collaboration of the German broadcasting corporations ARD and ZDF, tries to answer that question in this explainer video, which references the Zeit article “Ende des Ukraine-Kriegs: Verhandeln?” and the HCSS publication “How Wars End” as a source.

In last year’s “How Wars End | War terminations: insights for the Russia-Ukraine War“, HCSS director of research Tim Sweijs and assistant analyst Mattia Bertolini consider what we can learn from war terminations in the past: how long they lasted, how they ended, whether they relapsed, and what factors contributed to their end. These insights are used to assess the prospects of war termination in the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict and provide recommendations to European policymakers to bring an end to the current war and ensure durable peace between Russia and Ukraine.

Watch the German video by presenter Mirko Drotschmann here:

Knapp eineinhalb Jahren dauert der russische Angriffskrieg in der Ukraine schon an – und ein Ende ist nach wie vor nicht absehbar. Allerdings: Komplett aussichtslos ist die Situation nicht. Welche Möglichkeiten würde es denn geben, den Krieg zu beenden? Darum geht es in diesem “MrWissen2go” Video.

MrWissen2go ist ein Angebot von funk, ein Gemeinschaftsangebot der Arbeitsgemeinschaft der Rundfunkanstalten der Bundesrepublik Deutschland (ARD) und des Zweiten Deutschen Fernsehens (ZDF).

Note: Tim Sweijs also commented on the topic of how wars come to an end for the Dutch public television program NOS Op 3 last year.
