"We have to give Ukraine more." Former US Ambassador Jovanovich-about how Russia's aggression has changed America and its scenario of the end of the war.
Video of the Day Jovanovich confesses NB, who misses Ukraine, where she lived a bright part of her life, however, quite complicated. Jovanovich's cadence has fallen the period of the most intense relations between Ukraine and the United States, provoked by the dirty struggle of former US President Donald Trump against its political opponents.
At that time, Jovanovich remained correct the principles of democracy and, despite his open criticism of his work by the current president, accusations of her direction and further resignation testified to the process of his impeachment. Today Jovanovich is a teacher of prestigious US diplomatic service schools at the United States. While in Kiev, she gladly answered the questions of HB. - Increasingly, today they are talking about the use of nuclear weapons against Ukraine.
In your opinion, is there any benefits to Russia, is it still blackmail? - Russia has a traditional world of intimidation of the world - chemical and nuclear weapons. People with very high status in Russia periodically promise to apply it, but they have not yet done so. They also understand that the use of such weapons will translate the war to a completely different level of escalation, the consequences will be rigid, as President Biden stated. It is unlikely that Russia is interested in this.
Russia is constantly threatening, but it is unlikely to be so ready to worsen its situation. - What are the rates for the US and the whole world in the war that Russia leads in Ukraine? - Americans choose their representatives to the Senate this fall, and they do not necessarily think about Ukraine and the war, the importance of this issue in everyday life is not always obvious.
But at the same time, it is the main international problem in the field of security, which not only Ukraine but the USA, the whole world faced.
For Ukrainians, the main existential question is will we survive ourselves, will the nation survive in this war? But for Americans, this issue should be serious-will we save our world in a certain form, whether Russia's victory will deprive us of any rules on which this world was being built? All the usual order of relations in the world will disappear in the event of the victory of Russia.
Those who do not consider the war in Ukraine, are they ready to live in the world where Putin wins and it is like? I would not like that. It will not be easy not only for Ukrainians, but also for Europeans, Americans, any democracy. Therefore, it is important for Americans and Europeans to support Ukraine not only because Ukrainians boldly fight and make their work cool.
