What Stands In the Way of Doing All That‘s Needed? David Petraeus, Timothy Snyder, Olha Stefanishyna 

Prof. Snyder’s talk is enlightening as always. I find it appalling that after 2.5 years, we still remain even unable to admit our misconception of this war.

It may be technically correct that the Netherlands was the first country to drop the restrictions on the use of long-range weapons. However, Finland stated months and months ago that it had never put restrictions on the use of any weapons it has and will send to Ukraine. The Finnish leadership was only compelled to make that statement after it became a topic for debate. It had probably never occurred to Finns to dictate how Ukrainians should use the kit they send in the first place because to them, the notion was and is ridiculous. Now, if you're wondering what Finland has sent... Probably not much because you don't hear about it? Finland is one of the biggest artillery powers in Europe. It has sent on average one aid package per month for two and a half years. It hasn't skipped a beat despite having had presidential and parliamentary elections, and has made a formal agreement with Ukraine to continue supporting it for ten years. The reason you don't hear about this is that Ukraine and Finland agreed that announcing the specific contents of the packages and their delivery routes along the Russian border was probably not in the interest of either party. There's no need to broadcast what you're planning to do and what you will not do. Let the Russians wonder and find out on the battlefield. Bigger countries are big on claiming credit whereas it's countries like the Baltic states that are doing the work without virtue signaling because their own security interests are also on the line.

This has been really revealing. Slava Ukrainia and thankyou

Great panel. Host did a good job too. Could've listened for many more hours.

Excellent discussion. Thank you

Very informative and worthwhile discussion.

Εxcellent , informative session of great well known people!,,

thank you all

Great moderator. Very professional journalist. Thank you.

The most important thing for our leaders is not just to show support for Ukraine but to show strength and resolve in that support by insisting on victory. This can only be achieved by not handicapping Ukraine. If leaders show reluctance, hesitance or ambivalence that is born of fear then it conveys the cause is not righteous. But the cause is righteous as it is essential. They are us. The coming US election in 51 days has a constraining influence on these matters but starting in 52 days from now that support for Ukraine must become far more forceful. While we probably don’t want to see Russia collapse the reign of Putin MUST end.

It's 2024 and I'm still standing with Ukraine!

Great panel discussion thank you

Excellent and informative discussion

Great talk with a great panel on the most important topic of our lifetime! Give it more time!

How admirable nature can condensate wisdom and reason in one human like T. Snyder! We understand the history of Ukrainian nation and why they so heroically opposes Russians aggression and Russians carnage in Ukraine, listening his explanations!! Glory and victory to Ukraine!

"Russia will fall anyway" is the panel summed up in one succinct line. Bravo.

Amazing ! Thank you

Great panel but the lady presenter has the biggest balls! Very direct and no nonsense questions 👏

Good speakers. Good introduction (mind reading). I’m hooked

Great talk btw. Timothy Snyder is fantastic as always.

These are great conference panels. Duzhe dyakuyumo Victor Pinchuk Foundation.

The world needs much more of these conferences to stave off more wars and conflicts which may lead to Armageddon. Kudos to all the speakers.

Great panel!

❤️☀️🇨🇦🇺🇦⭐️💪🌍

Concerning the conceptional issue: Already right in the beginning of the war in 2022 the wording went wrong. Why do we call it "The Ucrainian war"??. It is not the Ukrainians war! It is PUTINS war! Why don't we not name the war after the agressor? So that Putin is mentioned every time when there is talking about his war? So that we always realise who the ennemy is. I'm convinced that the the right wording - talking about Putins war - would have lead to other, better decisions right away! Lets start name the war in the rigt way, please!

100% 🇸🇪💞🇺🇦

As always I agree 100% with Timothy Snyder.

Thanks professor

Thank you. I hope the video picks up speed and spreads widely.

General Petraeus sounds very smart! I am glad he has been in a position of authority! (oh, also seems like a good person to me so far as well) JD Vance sounds the opposite. SLAVA UKRAINI 🇺🇦🇺🇲

Like!

Great panel. It would have been interesting to ask how long they think it will take until the 25 Air Defense Systems required by UA are provided

When was this conference?

Slava Ukraini

As always, my scattered scattered mind, struggling for coming up on three years, is summarized by the MOST honorable Prof. Snyder in 3 minutes, beginning at 12:10 "What has been the reason for the timidity?" I hope his elimination of my soul ripping cognitive dissonance doesn't make my poetry suck, but if it does, so be it. UKRAINE MUST WIN!!! SLAVA UKRAINI, GLORY TO THE HEROES 🙌💪 🇺🇦❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥 This is a poem dedicated to eliminating my own reflexive narcissism, and making it all about the ones whose actions speak beyond words, all the Ukrainian men and women on the front. I love you all 💙💛 "who I am, who I'm not" Despite all the things I've paid for, all the things I've bought All it's done is prove to me what I'm not I'll say it to my grave, say it because it's true I'll never be a hero when I compare myself to you Money will never win this war Even though greed is how it started, taking is all they fight for Empty shells keep falling at your feet No, not the brass ammo The soulless skeletons, slaves to their "elite" It doesn't matter how many pennies I continue to give All that matters is that you fight, fight to live Evil triumphs when the good do nothing to stop the flood Money can't pick up a rifle, or sacrifice priceless blood The truth is I can give everything I own And never be anything when I see how freedom is sown It's not me, it's you, down in the trenches Let the politicians argue or sit pleasantly on golden benches I listen to them talk on and on While heroes fight and die But I'll never stop teaching truth over the lie No one on earth is as good as you No one compares, that's what's true That's what's true I'll do my best, what I can But all I have is nothing, compared to the better man. ...and the women? Don't even get me started So many of the best have already departed Thank God for my sweet Bakhmut love Who even when she reads this will point me to above "God is in control" she says as she loves me for who I am, who I'm not Praising every second she's alive, reminding me what I forgot Life is so precious, don't waste a single second Accept the love to which you're beckoned Open your heart, don't you fear Love is eternal, so wipe away every tear Come my love, let's forget the darkest things I just want to look in the sweetest eyes and know that love covers everything Heaven is never ending While the earth is bought and sold "God is in control" "God is in control" My sweet angel, my best friend All I can answer... "God has blessed me with you" Amen 🙏
