WAR IN UKRAINE: LESSONS LEARNED ONE YEAR ON
"War in Ukraine: one year on, what lessons can be learned? This was the title of the conference organised on 16 February at the École Militaire by several organisations, including the IHEDN and the IRSEM. Opened by Lieutenant General Benoît Durieux, Director of the IHEDN and Higher Military Education, and closed by Army General Thierry Burkhard, Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces, it brought together specialists from a wide range of civilian and military disciplines, researchers, doctors and officers from the three services, who shared their analyses of the lessons to be learned from the conflict.
