Bringing Peace to Syria & Ukraine
Ukraine and Syria. Different as they are, the two nations have at least two big things in common: Both have an ongoing war that has dismembered their territories and both are suffering from Russia's intervention.

The conference, organized by the Kyiv Post, Ukraine's English-language newspaper since 1995, is the first of its kind: It will look at the armed conflicts in Syria and Ukraine, compare the two nations' experiences and discuss ideas for lasting peace.

The conference is hosted by Kyiv Post publisher Adnan Kivan.
