On the occasion of the presentation of the book Leak. The Other Side of the Pipeline, participants will examine the gas pipelines that stretch from Siberia to Western Europe. Based on the research project Leak. The End of the Pipeline, the event addresses the ecological impacts of Russian colonialism and the inter-imperial gas pipeline deals between (West) Germany and (Soviet) Russia since the 1970s. The discussion will also address the situation of Indigenous peoples in Russian-occupied territories as well as anti-colonial activism in Northern Eurasia against the backdrop of Russia’s ongoing war of aggression against Ukraine. Featuring Oleksiy Radynski, Hito Steyerl, and Tjan Zaochnaja, moderated by Philipp Goll.
