Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), our study is on the situation in Ukraine.
We have a couple of witnesses today. Unfortunately, one of our witnesses from Ukraine is not on the screen yet, but they're seven hours ahead so maybe there's a little challenge with timing.
However, we do have Ms. Janice Stein, who is the director of the Munk School of Global Affairs. Welcome. It's great to have you with us today. Thank you for rescheduling with us because of conflicts during the last couple of weeks.
Ms. Stein, since you're the only witness we have right now, we're going to turn it over to you. You have an opening statement. I will let you know if our other witness appears. Then I would also encourage the members to address the questions to the individuals.
Ms. Stein, thank you for taking the time to be with us. We're looking forward to your testimony. I'll turn it over to you now.
