Ukraine Series: How Does the Law of Armed Conflict Apply with David Graham

Episode 261

As Ukraine ramps up its defenses with the help of allied nations, it appears there is no end in sight for the War in Ukraine. This week, host Elisa is joined by committee member David Graham to discuss the ins and outs of the Law of Armed Conflict, and how the framework applies to the situation in Ukraine. What should Russia be held accountable for? How do we foresee this conflict playing out? And how does the Law of Armed Conflict address crimes by victim nations?

David Graham is a Special Advisor to the ABA's Standing Committee on Law and National Security
