Center for Research and Evidence on Security Threats (CREST): Extremist Foreign Fighters In Ukraine
Body
CEP Affiliated Researcher Kacper Rekawek writes: "The 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine only strengthened this concern as some commentators worried that Ukraine’s call for foreign volunteers could further embolden extremists and result in a high number of Western Extremists travelling to the frontlines of the reignited war. Russia carefully stoked these fears with its rhetoric of the need to ‘de-nazify’ Ukraine, with the likes of the Azov movement as the key culprit in this regard."

Marking International Holocaust Remembrance Day, the Counter Extremism Project's ARCHER at House 88 presents a landmark concert of music composed in ghettos and death camps, performed in defiance of resurgent antisemitism. Curated with world renowned composer, conductor, and musicologist Francesco Lotoro, the program restores classical, folk, and popular works, many written on scraps of paper or recalled from memory, to public consciousness. Featuring world and U.S. premieres from Lotoro's archive, this concert honors a repertoire that endured against unimaginable evil.
