Excellent meeting and speakers. I have great respect for Snyder and Plokhy for their knowledge and I learned a lot about Ukrainian history during the last year. I am big supporter of Ukraine, although I have no personal connections to it. I have started studying the language in summer of last year through a language school in Kyiv, through online classes. I do it also out of resistance and respect for Ukrainian people who are extremely brave. Respect from Germany

Thank you so much. These discussions are always important and interesting to hear and to think about. This conversations should be a mandatory program for every politician in US and Europe.

Mr Yaroslav Hritsak - the life is tragic BECAUSE it's SO MUCH BEAUTY that gets destroyed by mostly unhappy, aggressive men NOT capable to perseve this beauty around them.

Wow! This is the Holy Trinity of modern Ukrainian history at this very moment!

Excellent panel!

Brilliant format and very interesting to listen to these experts. Comes it to the answer to the question :'What is wrong with Russia ?' I think Timothy Snyder knows the answer, he even mentioned it with a single word - but as a guy from Kasastan said to me when I saked him about what I had found out, his immediate answer of they very kompetent person was : 'I don't talk about that !!' .And to add to that: No is not what You think initially but close!

This is brilliant and wonderful; I particularly like Professor Hrystak's notion of the "Revolution vs Counterrevolution World Championship". I think that's a better way of expressing the "New Cold War" dynamic we see today. And I also very much agree with his claim that this all ultimately very tragic.
