i want to ask you, not about your view, but whether there is even a debate about this among ucranians. It's very complicated question, but i would say ukranians are ready to protect their independence, their freedom and their choice. We did not invite any one here to come to ukrane to kill our civilians or to ruin our beautiful cities. And we had it after world wor too. Those who were decent or who opposed the communist regime fled the country. That's why it's very important to continue our struggle.
Is the West doing enough to help Ukraine? What kind of endgame should Ukraine be seeking – all-out victory over Russia or a negotiated settlement that will allow both sides to claim they have won? To help answer some of these questions, we invited three prominent Ukrainian voices to get the view from the country. Kira Rudik is the MP who went viral on Instagram when she posted a photo of herself wielding a Kalashnikov and urging her fellow citizens to take up arms against the Russian invaders; Michael Bociurkiw, geopolitical analyst and humanitarian; and Olha Poliukhovych, a cultural historian and academic based in Kyiv. This discussion is hosted by broadcaster and academic Philippa Thomas.
