EDITORIAL  Our NEU number from the 29th of January already explored the developments of the threat represented by Russia’s militarism to regional stability and in particular to Ukraine’s sovereignty.

In this context, NEU will offer detailed insights into each and every aspect arising from this conflict to understand why this is a pivotal moment for the EU, the democratic principles it represents and ultimately for all of us European citizens.
