What is behind the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (Moscow Patriarchate)? We spoke to Archimandrite Cyril Hovorun, Professor in Ecclesiology, International Relations and Ecumenism at the Sankt Ignatios College, University College Stockholm. Key points👇#UkraineWorldAnalysis: 1/13

There are disagreements between the believers and clergy in this church who support Ukraine on the one hand, and the episcopate, which is dominated by passive or active sympathy for the "Russian world". 2/13

There are also Ukrainian patriots among the bishops of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church who are against the Russian Orthodox Church's support for the war, but they do not constitute a majority. 3/13

What are the key moments of the first 200 days of the 🇷🇺 war? UW has translated the key aspects of Liga.net review of a new book Over the Precipice, by Volodymyr Horbulin and Valentyn Badrak, military experts. Key points – in our brief, #UkraineWorldAnalysis: 1/11

Putin was helped by Western inaction. The war began 8 years before the full-scale invasion. And it was a logical consequence of the weakness of the "collective West" in its confrontation with Russia. 2/11

For eight years, the army has not been a priority. It was planned to allocate 133.5 billion hryvnias, or approximately $5 billion, to the armed forces [in 2022]. This is an extremely small amount for a country at war with a giant enemy. 3/11

And what, there will be no annual 🇷🇺President’s speech? #AgainstRussianLies #InfoWatch

For the last 10 years, the head of the Kremlin has annually held a meeting at the end of the year, “a meeting best of the best”. Last year, a big press conference occurred on December 23rd, where Vladimir Putin talked for almost 4 hours, responding to 55 questions. #StopRussiaNOW

However, this tradition continued until #Russia started “a special military operation” in #Ukraine, and this year, the annual big press conference of Russia’s President Vladimir Putin won’t occur. #RussiainvadedUkraine

#AgainstRussianLies #InfoWatch

Russia has already reacted to Zelenskyy’s initiative. Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev said that President Zelenskyy intends to use EU missions as “human shields.” #RussianPropaganda

@OleksiyDanilov

Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council @OleksiyDanilov shares his vision of a current watershed period and what to do to avoid the big war. The answer is clear - de-Putinization, denuclearization, demilitarization of 🇷🇺 and and dismantling its pseudo-federation.

Regarding Russia, now we are dealing with the emerging hybrid, modernized bloodiest version of totalitarianism, which has rightly been called the ideology of russism, which can use all the latest technological and civilizational achievements.

Silence and lack of actions from Europe in 1930s led to rise of Hitler. If the humankind didn't draw the lesson from history, the current war for independence of Ukraine can be just prologue to the big war.

What is the current situation with judicial reform in Ukraine? UkraineWorld spoke to Mykhailo Zhernakov, chair of the board of the DEJURE Foundation. Key points – in our brief, #UkraineWorldAnalysis: 1/13

The war has greatly changed everything. First of all, we are already on the fourth iteration of Ukraine`s judicial reform. Some parts of it were successful, like the Anti-Corruption Court, but the rest has been less so. 2/13

This is mostly because earlier judicial self-governance, which exists in other European countries, was introduced. This is a good recipe for preserving the system’s ability to preserve itself, but a bad one when the system needs to be changed. 3/13
