Vitaly Shevchenko

Aber ich kann nicht sagen, dass sie eine große Rolle in diesem Thema gespielt haben. I honestly have seen nothing to suggest that he is willing or even able to put effective pressure on Vladimir Putin to force him to stop this war. This might change, you never know, but so far... His rhetoric has been so aligned with the Kremlin's talking points and his actions.

They've benefited the Kremlin in terms of a pause in weapons supplies to Ukraine and the general damage his administration has done to the Western alliance that emerged after the Second World War.

Okay. As a Russian speaker who spent most of his life living in eastern Ukraine, I think I can tackle this. When Tony mentions Russians in Ukraine, I suspect he means Russian speakers, because the notion of ethnicity is kind of hazy in Ukraine. I certainly never felt threatened or oppressed, nor were my friends in Zaporizhia. We could speak Russian freely. It's not banned.

In official communication in schools, for example, yes, you're supposed to speak Ukrainian, but it's Ukraine. And this comes after decades and decades of Soviet communist Russian efforts to eradicate the Ukrainian language.

So we sort of accepted it and found it natural and after Russia started its war against Ukraine, so many Russian speakers in Ukraine speak in Ukrainian now, because it feels wrong to continue speaking Russian. Now, Russia's security concerns, I don't think any of them were legitimate.

I keep using this phrase because I try to stick to the facts and nothing in Ukraine's, NATO's, the West's actions or rhetoric in the run-up to the initial secret invasion of 2014 or full-scale invasion 2022. suggest that there was a threat forming against Russia. It's an excuse to attack Ukraine, because no aggressor wants to be seen as an aggressor.
