In March 2022, Professor and PREVEX-researcher Ulf Engel (University of Leipzig) posted a blog series in which he analyse how African states have responded to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, African countries’ voting patterns in the UN General Assembly, the economic consequences of the war for Africa, and the plight of African students in Ukraine.
“How have African states and their continental organisation, the African Union (AU), responded to Russia’s aggression against the Ukraine? Have they developed a sense of unity – or are historic trajectories along Cold War lines playing out? Moreover, does their reaction offer insights into the yet again changing world order? And what are the repercussions of the war on Africa in economic and social terms?“
The blogs can be found here.
