Dr. Nadiya KostyukExternal article: the Technique
Nadiya Kostyuk, assistant professor in the School of Public Policy and the School of Cybersecurity and Privacy, talked to Georgia Tech's student newspaper about the war in Ukraine. She discussed the social media and cyber dimensions, as well as her ties to it as a native of Ukraine. Daniel Aum, Ph.D. student in the Sam Nunn School of International Affairs, wrote the article.
An excerpt:
Technique: Why should Tech students care about Russia’s invasion of Ukraine?
The crisis will shape the global order. I know, it’s a grandiose statement. But look at Russia’s actions: they tried to prevent Ukraine from joining the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), contrary to the principle of self-determination. The invasion itself violates the UN Charter’s prohibition on the use of military force against another state. Russia’s actions are undermining the principles established since the end of World War II.
