The war against Ukraine is now in its second month. And even though it is happening only a few kilometers away from us, the country is still far away for many people in Germany. The conviction and consistency with which the local people are fighting for their country, their freedom and their democracy has surprised many in Germany. For people who, like us, have worked in Ukraine, this resistance is only a logical consequence of the developments and achievements of the country in recent years.
During the online event, the following myths will be addressed:
- Ukraine is divided into Ukrainian-speaking Europe-oriented West and Russian-speaking Russia-friendly East.
- Ukrainian democratization effort is a new development.
- Ukraine is full of Nazis and Russia is denazifying Ukraine.
