An evening with Evan Gershkovich.
Hi y’all, let’s check out this forum presented by the Yale Club of Germany for their Munich Dialogues on Democracy series in cooperation with the Amerikahaus, Bard College Berlin and the Heinrich Böll Foundation.

From YCG website:
In March 2023, a year after Russia invaded Ukraine, Evan Gershkovich met with a union boss connected with a Russian tank factory. As the journalist sat with his source in an empty restaurant in an industrial city 900 miles east of Moscow, a squad of masked agents charged in, blindfolded Evan, and dragged him into an unmarked van. The agents were from the FSB, Putin’s powerful security service, and the successor to the Soviet-era KGB.

Evan will bring us inside the events leading to his arrest, his nearly 500 days in Russian prisons, and the blockbuster, multi-country prisoner swap that freed him.

Admission is free. Registration is requested. Please register here:
