C dans l'air du 7 mars 2025 - Poutine/ Macron : le ton monteFace au désengagement des Américains, les Vingt-Sept se sont mis d'accord hier à Bruxelles sur un plan de 800 milliards d'euros pour se réarmer rapidement. "Des financements communs massifs seront décidés pour acheter et produire sur le sol européen des munitions, des chars, des armes, des équipements parmi les plus innovants", avait expliqué mercredi soir lors de son allocution télévisée Emmanuel Macron qui veut aller plus loin. Le chef de l'Etat défend également l'idée d'un grand emprunt commun et s'est dit prêt à l'ouverture d'un débat stratégique sur l'extension de la dissuasion nucléaire de la France aux pays de l'UE. Un sujet qui fait couler beaucoup d'encre et a suscité de vives réactions à Moscou et Washington. Vladimir Poutine l'a accusé hier de vouloir revenir "aux temps de Napoléon, en oubliant comment ça s'est terminé", en référence au fiasco de la campagne de Russie. La menace est explicite. Alors depuis Bruxelles le chef de l'État a répliqué : "Napoléon menait des conquêtes. La Russie est la seule puissance impériale que je vois en Europe et c'est un impérialisme révisionniste de l'histoire et de l'identité des peuples. En tout cas c'est une contre-sens historique" a-t-il asséné. Le président de la République a également répondu à son homologue américain qui a mis en doute la solidarité de la France si les Etats-Unis avaient un problème : "Nous sommes des alliés loyaux et fidèles. Que quiconque ose en douter regarde l'histoire contemporaine qui est la nôtre. Elle justifie respect et amitié et je pense que l'on est en droit de réclamer la même chose" a-t-il affirmé.En début de semaine, Donald Trump a ordonné la suspension de toute fourniture d'armes et munitions à l'Ukraine. Le directeur de la CIA a également confirmé avoir mis fin aux échanges de renseignements avec Kiev alors que sur le front les combats se poursuivent. Nos journalistes ont rencontré à Zaporijia, en Ukraine, Maksym et Tetatyana. Tous deux sont originaires de Melitopol, une ville située au sud de l'Ukraine occupée par les Russes depuis le début de l'invasion en 2022. C'est là qu'ils ont été enlevés par les soldats russes et séparés - Maksym pendant 8 mois, Tetyana pendant 44 jours. Une période extrêmement difficile au cours de laquelle ils ont été torturés et violentés. Ils nous en parlent ce soir dans #cdanslair.Pendant ce temps-là, en France, l'aide à l'Ukraine fait débat. Marine Le Pen a dit soutenir les Ukrainiens, tout en refusant une réponse européenne au conflit et relativisant la menace russe. Dans un entretien au Figaro, la triple candidate à l'élection présidentielle a considéré comme "étrange" l'urgence exprimée par Emmanuel Macron lors de son allocution. Elle a également dit être sur la même ligne que François Fillon qui siégeait jusqu'en 2022 au conseil d'administration de deux entreprises russes, dont une étatique, et qui a affirmé dans les colonnes de Valeurs actuelles : « La Russie est une menace infiniment moindre que celle de l'islam radical". "Oui, la Russie a attaqué illégalement l'Ukraine mais de là à laisser croire qu'elle veut envahir l'Europe, tout cela me semble totalement farfelu", a renchéri de son côté l'Eurodéputé RN Thierry Mariani. Une position partagée par l'extrême droite européenne, tiraillée sur l'Ukraine, ses liens avec la Russie et sa fascination pour Donald Trump.Les experts :- Anthony BELLANGER - Éditorialiste - Franceinfo TV, spécialiste des questions internationales- Isabelle LASSERRE - Correspondante diplomatique - Le Figaro, auteure de Macron-Poutine, les liaisons dangereuses- Marie JÉGO - Journaliste spécialiste de la Russie - Le Monde- Michel GOYA - Historien militaire, ancien officier des troupes de marine- Anne PONSINET ( en duplex de Moscou) - Correspondante en Russie – France Télévisions

Seit drei Jahren herrscht Krieg in der Ukraine. Aktuell leben rund 67'000 Ukrainerinnen und Ukrainer in der Schweiz, welche vor dem Krieg geflohen sind. Fast ein Drittel davon sind Kinder und Jugendliche. Wie finden sie sich weit weg von der Heimat in einem fremden Land zurecht? Maksym ist 13 Jahre alt, als er in die Schweiz kommt. Zuvor hatte er eine unbeschwerte Kindheit im Südwesten der Ukraine. In der Schweiz angekommen, hat er grosses Heimweh. «Ich habe jede Nacht geweint». Er vermisst seine Freunde und seine Freundin. Dazu kommen die normalen Herausforderungen der Pubertät: «Ich hatte alles verloren, keine Freunde mehr und als ob das nicht schon genug wäre, hatte ich jeden Tag Streit mit meinen Eltern.» Der andere Jugendliche, der hier seine Geschichte erzählt, heisst ebenfalls Maksym. Er ist 16, als er in die Schweiz kommt, davor lebte er im Süden der Ukraine. Er lebt sich schnell ein in der Schweiz, aber durch den Krieg und die Flucht fühlt er sich heimatlos. «Ich spreche kein Schweizerdeutsch und gehöre damit nicht richtig dazu. Doch auch die Ukraine ist nicht mehr meine Heimat.» Maksym und Maksym erzählen, was ihnen geholfen hat, in der Schweiz Fuss zu fassen. Die Liebe spielt dabei eine zentrale Rolle. ____________________ In dieser Episode zu hören - Maksym (19) macht eine Lehre als Restaurationsfachmann - Maksym (16) macht die Fachmittelschule FMS - Mergim Vukshinaj (37) Headcoach Kampfsportschule Basel ____________________ Habt ihr Feedback, Fragen oder Wünsche?

“None of the experiences I've had in my lifetime can even for a second match daily Mass, where I'm holding God in my hands.” Join Fr. John Maksam as he shares his vocation story on this episode of Men of the Hearts. Although Fr. John felt a call to the priesthood as a child, his journey included studying law, entering the Navy, serving as a judge, and eventually becoming a priest later in life. (00:03): Fr. Craig introduces this episode's guest, Fr. John Maksym. Fr. John shares a recent experience of administering the Anointing of the Sick and witnessing a marriage on the same day. He explains that as a priest, “you are automatically engaged and accepted at every crucial point of a human being's life.” He and Fr. Craig agree that although the life of a priest has many profound moments, it is also true that “people just want to see their priest as a real person.” Fr. John describes the construction of a new chapel at St. Mary's School in Mount Clemens.(14:55): Fr. Craig invites Fr. John to share his vocation story. Fr. John explains, “I knew I was going to be a priest when I was six years old.” However, he decided in his thirties that he “just wasn't ready” to enter the seminary. Fr. John's journey included studying law, entering the Navy, and spending numerous years serving as a judge. In 2014, he entered Pope St. John XIII National Seminary. (28:03): Fr. John shares that his decision to become a priest involved choosing not to marry a wonderful woman. He notes, “I wouldn't sentence my worst enemy to have to make the decision I made ‘cause it was very difficult. But in the end, you know, when God calls, He doesn't stop.”(31:18): Fr. John and Fr. Craig discuss the priestly call to leadership and how that call is lived out through each man's individual talents and personality. Fr. Craig asks Fr. John about his experiences in the military. Fr. John shares that although he was “incredibly fulfilled” in his career, he knew he was called to become a priest and was ordained in 2018. He describes his first parish assignment and his time studying canon law.(43:27): Fr. John offers discernment advice: “If the Lord's really calling you, you're gonna know it. And never be afraid. Just never be afraid.” He also relates, “None of the experiences I've had in my lifetime can even for a second match daily Mass, where I'm holding God in my hands. Nothing matches that.” Fr.

S4E3 Before 2004, Ukraine pulsed with a vibrant cultural awakening. Following decades of Soviet suppression, Ukrainian language, music, art, and identity blossomed in a hard-won space. But this renaissance wasn't without its challenges. In this episode, we explore the diverse memories of Ukrainians navigating this crucial period: Marichka recalls the Orange Revolution through the eyes of a child, witnessing her mother's passionate activism and the birth of a national spirit. Val paints a broader picture, highlighting the Orange Revolution's significance for Ukraine's democratic future and the pushback it received from Russia. Stas reflects on a childhood marked by cultural duality, where Ukrainian culture fought for recognition against the dominance of Russian influence. Maksym shares a poignant story of bullying for speaking Ukrainian, revealing the lingering scars of colonial self-hate. Through their accounts, we witness the complexities of cultural decolonization, the resilience of Ukrainian identity, and the ever-present shadow of Russian interference.

Russia is tearing itself away from modern civilization and its associated values, norms, and comforts. What demons have resurfaced from Russia's past, and what is driving a form of sado-masochistic self-destruction and flagellation, that seems to be propelling Russia backwards in a painful civilisational decline. And where will this out-of-control Troika stop – possibly at an era that pre-dates Peter the Great's efforts to punch a window onto Europe in the façade of Russia's feudal-military despotism, established by the khans of the Mongol Horde. But what is the role of such a state in the modern world, and how to defend against it? ---------- Maksym Eristavi is the Russian colonialism storyteller-in-chief.

A self-described 'Russian colonialism storyteller in chief,' he champions global awareness about the Russian colonial legacy. This mission is personal: a mixed Ukrainian with Asian, Roma, and Georgian roots, several generations of his family suffered from genocides, assimilation, and identity erasure throughout centuries of Russian colonial rule. Eristavi has a two-decade journalism career behind his back that included championing mainstream English-language coverage of Eastern Europe by indigenous voices. He went from covering both Ukrainian pro-democratic revolutions, being the country's youngest news anchor and newsroom manager to founding international operations at the leading news startup covering Eastern Europe, and becoming a contributor to leading global outlets, such as RFERL, BBC, CNN, Al-Jazeera, Foreign Policy, Foreign Affairs, Politico and the Washington Post. At the same time, Bild and The New York Times called his social media reporting an essential source on the region. He led pioneering English-language coverage of the Russian disinformation warfare, Russian colonialism, and human rights violations in Eastern Europe. His work and anti-colonial bridge-building made Eristavi a featured speaker at leading universities, many parliaments, and foreign ministries, including hearings at the US Congress and the European Parliament. ---------- TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND: Save Ukraine https://www.saveukraineua.org/ Superhumans - Hospital for war traumas https://superhumans.com/en/ UNBROKEN - Treatment.

Unlock your inner superhero and break free from limiting beliefs! If you're ready to rewrite your story and supercharge your life, this episode with Valerie Maksym is a must-listen. In this empowering episode, MommaFoxFire engages in a compelling conversation with Valerie Maksym, a life coach and author of a self-help book. Valerie shares her incredible journey of self-discovery. Her own experiences in dealing with trauma, heartache and the profound desire for healing resonate deeply with anyone who has faced adversity. Valerie's transparency and willingness to share her path to recovery provide a genuine and relatable touchpoint for listeners. One of the central themes of the discussion is the significance of authenticity. Valerie firmly believes that breaking free from limiting beliefs is deeply rooted in embracing one's true self. She emphasizes the importance of tearing down the emotional walls we build around our hearts and minds. This process can be gradual, like learning to build a fence you can eventually see through. The key, according to Valerie, is taking baby steps towards authenticity. To offer a practical strategy for pursuing goals, Valerie introduces her own formula: Focus plus Consistency equals Motivation and Momentum. She urges folks to identify their goals, narrow them down to specifics, create action plans and, most importantly, stay consistent in executing those plans. Valerie's results speak for themselves, as she has witnessed countless clients make significant progress by concentrating on the process rather than the immediate outcome. It's about sustainable change and continuing to evolve, not achieving a goal and then regressing to the previous state. The conversation delves into Valerie's family experiences, illustrating how her healing journey influenced her relationships with her children. Her openness about the challenges her children faced, including issues with drugs, jail and alcohol, is both poignant and inspiring. Through her actions, she demonstrated her personal growth, and her children were inspired to heal by watching her transform. Valerie and MommaFoxFire also discuss the common human experience of imposter syndrome. Valerie acknowledges that imposter syndrome is something many people face, doubting their abilities or feeling inadequate compared to others. She shares her personal method for overcoming this by focusing on her unique gifts and purpose and continuing to educate herself through podcasts and constant learning. Self-love is a critical component of overcoming limiting beliefs, and Valerie offers valuable advice for encouraging self-compassion and acceptance. She recommends monitoring the way you speak to yourself, replacing negative thoughts with positive affirmations. This shift in self-talk can significantly impact one's self-perception and overall well-being. The discussion concludes with the importance of self-care and the necessity of finding time for reflection and meditation. Valerie shares her journey to understanding meditation, emphasizing its value in achieving a state of clarity and stress relief. Additionally, Valerie notes that sometimes taking time for silence and introspection is a challenging yet necessary endeavor to confront one's thoughts and emotions. Overall, this podcast episode is an inspiring exploration of self-discovery and personal growth. Valerie's story is one of resilience, transformation and the power of authenticity, motivating listeners to embark on their own journeys towards embracing their inner superheroes and breaking free from limiting beliefs. Whether you are striving to overcome imposter syndrome, seeking to cultivate self-love or simply yearning for practical advice to reach your goals, this episode offers valuable insights and motivation for anyone ready to unlock their full potential.

My guest on this week's podcast had a history of shoving her pain under the rug. It started when she was twelve. But over the years it got worse and worse. She became a shell of herself, and had the mindset of, “Just let me get through another day.” I know a lot of you out there feel that way about your job. It's the absolute worst on Monday, once you've had a weekend of freedom.  But Tuesday you think, “Okay fine, we have to be here, let's just make it to Friday.” So you put on a good face and try to do your best.  On Wednesday, you sit in meeting after meeting listening to people with half your talent get all the glory.  You've known exactly what you were going to say in this meeting since yesterday. (You didn't want to be caught off guard.) But every time you try to speak, someone talks over you. Nobody is paying attention. You're fuming, but you hold it in.  By Thursday your stomach hurts so bad in the morning you think about calling in. But you know that will only put more work on your desk so you suck it up and go in anyway.  Put on that smile. Pretend everything is just fine. But you feel like a zombie.  And by Friday you're struggling to keep a panic attack at bay. Just one more day. Let me make it through one more day.    The thing is, at some point, everything you've been stuffing is going to come out. One way or another. And it will never pick the right time.  So the question becomes, will you wait until you can't hold it in anymore? Until it explodes before you do something about this cycle?  Or maybe you're worried that you can't do anything to fix it? Because everything you've tried hasn't worked. I want you to know that you can!!  This is why I love talking to people like Valerie Maksym. It wasn't easy for her. She spent a lifetime stuffing and internalizing the pain of trauma and tragedy. But through perseverance and showing up for herself, she took back her life. She is now a competitive bodybuilder, author, and high-performance life coach. She found her true self and allows her inner superhero to shine bright for the world to see.  If Valerie can do it, so can you!   Connect to Valerie: Website: https://maksymizinglife.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/maksymizinglife Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/maksymizinglife/ Email: maksymizinglife@gmail.com book-Maksymizing Life: Turn Self Doubt into Self Confidence!-https://a.co/d/gbtbKVk    Connect to Genea: Free Career Guide: http://elevatefreegift.com/  Book a Call with Genea: http://elevatebookacall.com/  Website: http://geneabarnes.com/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/genea-barnes/ Facebook personal: https://www.facebook.com/geneabarnes Facebook business: https://www.facebook.com/geneabarneselevate/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/geneabarnes/  TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@geneabarnes YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/geneabarnes

Russian is my mother tongue, and liberation means ripping it out of my throat.' There's so much talk about russian-speaking Ukrainians abroad.

During the extreme times of pushing I found myself pushing harder in other areas of my life as well. This sport helped to develop my self confidence and it helped me to believe in myself. I am a huge believer in finding a hobby that you find to be fulfilling and fun. I wanted to compete since my early 20's and wasn't given the opportunity. I thought at the age of 46 I was too old, so happy through coaching I realized age is just a number. I decided to get out there and do what I always wanted to do and get on that stage and compete. I had many odds stacked against me, however I did it. My first competition I received 1st place. Four years later and now I am competing in figure at a national level.

I am a huge believer in finding a hobby that you find to be fulfilling and fun. I wanted to compete since my early 20's and wasn't given the opportunity. I thought at the age of 46 I was too old, so happy through coaching I realized age is just a number. I decided to get out there and do what I always wanted to do and get on that stage and compete. I had many odds stacked against me, however I did it. My first competition I received 1st place. Four years later and now I am competing in figure at a national level. Never let age hold you back." maksymizinglife.com

Our ⁠Patreon family⁠ gets the episodes much earlier, packaged with lots of bonus and backstage content.  s3e4: During the latest mass pro-democracy protests in Sakartvelo-Georgia, you could see Ukrainian flags and hear 'Slava Ukraïni' everywhere. Why does Ukraine mean so much for Kartvelians-Georgians? This small Eastern European nation doesn't capture as many global headlines as Ukraine. But tightly bonded with Ukraine through centuries of shared history and by a shared colonial abuser, learning about Sakartvelo is crucial for your understanding of why Russia is committing genocide in Ukraine and why the empire will inevitably fall. For another bridge episode, we invited Nodar Rukhadze, a Georgian civil rights activist, journalist, and the founder of the Shame Movement, to educate us about his personal and Sakartvelo's decolonization struggle.

When a Russian missile recently struck a TV tower in Kyiv, near Babyn Yar, the site of Nazi mass murders during the Holocaust, some saw the attack as a potent symbol of the tragic occurrence of violence in Ukraine. To talk through the historical significance of the attack, Lawfare Managing Editor Tyler McBrien sat down with Maksym Rokmaniko, an architect, designer, entrepreneur, and director at the Center for Spatial Technologies in Kyiv, and Linda Kinstler, a PhD candidate in the rhetoric department at UC Berkeley.In her recent New York times essay, the Bloody Echoes of Babyn Yar, Linda wrote, "the current war in Ukraine is so oversaturated with historical meaning, it is unfolding on soil that has absorbed wave after wave of the dead, where soldiers do not always have to dig trenches in the forest because the old ones remain."Linda's writing has appeared in the New York Times, the Washington Post, the Atlantic and Jewish Currents, where she recently reported on the Babyn Yar Holocaust Memorial center. Linda is also the author of Come to This Court and Cry: How the Holocaust Ends, which is out in the U.S. on August 23rd, from Public Affairs.Tyler, Linda and Maksym discuss the history of Babyn Yar as a sight and symbol, the role of open source investigative techniques and forensic modeling in the documentation of war crimes, the battle over historical narratives, memorialization and memory, as well as the limits of the law in achieving justice for victims of negation and genocide.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/lawfare.

In this interview conducted a few weeks before Russia's escalation of its invasion of Ukraine, Eastern European journalist and writer Maksym Eristavi explains the social and political crises that led the world to this point. Andrea and Maksym discuss corruption in Ukraine, how the Kremlin has weaponized that corruption, and how corruption in Ukraine is an enduring legacy of Russian genocidal colonialism, and how the West can help Ukraine by cleaning up its own corruption. They also discuss Ukraine's efforts to build a free and just civil society despite corruption, in particular ongoing initiatives to preserve LGBTQ rights. This interview provides vital historical context on the ongoing regional conflict.
