À Kiev comme dans le reste du pays, des millions d'Ukrainiens ont vécu une énième nuit d'angoisse dimanche 17 novembre, émaillée d'alertes aériennes et d'explosions. Car le pays a subi une attaque russe de grande ampleur sur l'ensemble du pays. La cible principale de ces attaques était le réseau énergétique du pays, déjà très fragile. De notre correspondante à Kiev,Pour la première fois depuis presque trois mois, la Russie a lancé une nouvelle fois un barrage de 120 missiles et 90 drones sur plusieurs régions ukrainiennes. Leurs cibles : les infrastructures énergétiques du pays, déjà fortement endommagées, comme l'explique Pavlo Bilodid, porte-parole de DTEK, plus grand fournisseur privé d'énergie en Ukraine.« C'était la dixième attaque cette année, et ils ont fait comme d'habitude, avec les mêmes méthodes : envoyer un grand nombre de missiles et de drones. Le but principal pour eux, c'est de détruire notre capacité de génération électrique et nos sous-stations, ce qu'ils ont réussi dans certaines régions. »Au cours de ces frappes, deux employés d'Ukrenergo, le fournisseur public d'énergie, ont été tués à Odessa, alors que l'Ukraine peinait déjà à reconstruire les infrastructures déjà endommagées par les attaques précédentes. « Depuis, nous avons beaucoup reconstruit, nous avons tout fait pour être prêts pour cet hiver, mais le niveau de destruction était déjà si élevé qu'il était impossible de tout restaurer », détaille le porte-parole de DTEK.« C'était quand même effrayant la nuit dernière »À Kiev, quelques heures après les frappes, les habitants tentent de reprendre une vie normale, malgré le danger permanent qui place au-dessus d'eux. « C'était quand même effrayant la nuit dernière, mais nous y sommes habitués, raconte cette habitante de Kiev. Je pense que nous vivons vraiment une époque terrible, parce que chaque jour beaucoup de gens meurent, des gens qui tentent simplement de vivre, qui rentrent simplement à la maison pour dîner ou se coucher normalement, être avec leur famille ou regarder un film, sortir, retrouver des amis. Mais malgré tout, nous comprenons que tôt ou tard tout finira et nous nous battrons pour cela. »À Mykolaïv, deux femmes sont mortes et sept personnes ont été blessées. Dans la région de Dnipropetrovsk, deux cheminots ont également été tués. Et dans la région occidentale de Lviv, une femme de 66 ans a également péri dans sa voiture sous les débris d'un missile abattu, alors que les Ukrainiens craignent que ces attaques ne soient que le prélude d'une nouvelle vague de destruction russe.À lire aussiUkraine: le président Zelensky dit vouloir la fin de la guerre en 2025 par «des moyens diplomatiques»

2023 was a really difficult year for Ukraine. People expected that after the Kharkiv and Kherson counter offensives to spawn a whole host of military successes, but in reality, things were more difficult. The counteroffensive stalled, and meanwhile, Western support has started to fracture. But internally, the country has also changed: where once we saw an extremely united front, now politics is back in the conversation. But what does the Ukrainian public actually want? Are they ready to stay the course with Zelensky and his team? Or do they want a change in leadership, with new ideas to bring the country closer to victory? To find out more, on this week of Power Lines we spoke with Mykola Davydiuk. Mykola is an author and a popular political scientist in Ukraine. He's advised many major political figures over the past decade and is now a key commentator on the war through his YouTube and TikTok channels. We asked him how he has experienced 2023 politically in Ukraine, and what he thinks are the likely next moves for Zelenskyy, his allies, and his rivals.

An innovation culture is crucial for organizational success, fostering shared values, beliefs, and behaviors that encourage creativity and risk-taking. Google is renowned for initiatives like the "20% time" policy, allowing employees to dedicate a portion of their work hours to self-directed projects. 3M embraces the "15% rule," granting employees the freedom to pursue personal projects. Amazon's "Working Backwards" approach prioritizes customer-centric innovation, contributing to its constant growth. These companies exemplify how innovation culture fuels progress. In today's episode - I will be discussing the human side of innovation in order to drive real organizational change driven by employees.   About My Guest - Mykola Takzey Mykola Takzey has an impressive corporate innovation career, spanning across diverse locations, including Ukraine, Switzerland, Israel, and Belgium. What sets his experience apart is his involvement with organizations facing transformation challenges. Mykola stands out as a unique marketer who seamlessly integrates innovation and human change methodologies. His approach ensures that innovation becomes an integral and ongoing part of the organizational culture, rather than a one-time occurrence.   How to reach out Mykola Takzey In LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/takzey/    What We Discussed in this episode on building innovation that is bottom-up driven: Often the psychological aspect of innovation - change coupled with resistance or fear by employees - is disregarded because we oversimplify believing that innovation is the reward that everybody expects - what are the symptoms to expect in organizations where the human side has been overlooked Do we have good examples where innovation driven by the top of the organization has been a success? How did they make it work? Legend or Truth? Without Steve Jobs Apple would not be one the most innovative companies. Do we need a few good innovators or many micro- innovators in succesful corporations?? What are the challenges to implement sustainable innovation that is truly coming from the organization [bottom-up innovation] What are the usual reasons that companies give not to start a full blown program where people learn and have the resources to bring innovation in their day to day What actions should be put in place to build sustainable innovation at work   Bonus content on Innovation Building a Customer-Centric Culture: Embracing Agility and Innovation https://www.peoplekult.com/post/building-a-customer-centric-culture-embracing-agility-and-innovation  About General Electrics Transformation https://hbr.org/2017/09/inside-ges-transformation.Organizational  A Culture of Innovation Starts with People https://simplyhuman.substack.com/p/a-culture-of-innovation-starts-with 

Secession Podcast: Artists is a series of conversations featuring artists exhibiting at the Secession. This episode is a conversation between the artist Mykola Ridnyi and the board member and artist Anna Witt. It was recorded on September 15, 2023 in the context of the exhibition: Mykola Ridnyi 15.9. – 12.11.2023 Mykola Ridnyi's generation of Ukrainians grew up in a climate of increasing orientation toward the West and the European Union. This emancipation from Russia found expression in the 2004 Orange Revolution and was defended in the Euromaidan events of 2013–14. It was a process that went hand in hand with the emergence of a confident Ukrainian arts scene, among whose leading exponents Ridnyi ranks. Long before graduating from the Kharkiv State Academy of Design and Arts in 2008, he was instrumental to the formation of a politically active arts scene, both as an artist in his own right and as a curator and author. He was a founding member of the art collective SOSka, whose SOSka gallery-lab, an artist-run space that existed from 2005 until 2012, was a key contribution to the local artistic infrastructure. Ridnyi's curatorial project Armed and Dangerous (2017–2021) prompted him to begin developing a platform for collaborations between Ukrainian moving-image artists and filmmakers. In 2022–23, he curated several Ukrainian film and video art screening programs at DAAD-Galerie, Berlin; MAXXI, Rome; Museum Folkwang, Essen; and the National Gallery, Sofia. More Anna Witt, born in Germany in 1981, lives and works in Vienna and Berlin. Her artistic practice is performative, participatory, and political. She creates situations that reflect interpersonal relationships and power structures as well as conventions of speaking and acting. Her work has been shown at the SEMA Seoul Museum of Art; the Secession, Vienna; the 1st Vienna Biennale at MAK; the Gallery of Contemporary Art Leipzig; Museum Ludwig, Cologne; the Austrian Cultural Forum in New York; Kunstmuseum Bern; and the MOCA Museum of Contemporary Art Taipei, among others, and she has had solo exhibitions at Museum Belvedere 21 Contemporary, Vienna; Kunst Halle Sankt Gallen, and Gallery Tanja Wagner, Berlin, at Marabouparken konsthall, Stockholm and Stacion—Center for Contemporary Art, Prishtina, Kosovo. She took part in Aichi Triennial in 2019 and 2013; the Lux/ICA Biennial of Moving Images, London; the 6th Berlin Biennale of Contemporary Art, and Manifesta 7 in northern Italy, and is the winner of the Outstanding Artist Award of the Austrian Federal Ministry of the Arts, Culture, the Civil Service and Sport (2020), the Otto Mauer Prize (2018), the Art Prize ‘Future of Europe' (2015), the BC21 Art Award (2013), and the Art Prize of the Columbus Art Foundation (2008).

C dans l'air du 29 août - Ukraine : les occidentaux doutent, Poutine se renforce LES EXPERTS : - GUILLAUME ANCEL - Ancien officier de l'armée française - Écrivain - ANTOINE VITKINE - Journaliste, réalisateur du documentaire La vengeance de Poutine - PIERRE HASKI - Chroniqueur international - France Inter et L'Obs - ARMELLE CHARRIER - Éditorialiste en politique internationale à France 24 « Aussi longtemps que nécessaire ». Alors que le ministre ukrainien des affaires étrangères est attendu ce mardi à Paris, son homologue française, Catherine Colonna, a assuré que Paris soutiendra Kiev le temps qu'il faut pour « les intérêts de la France, la sécurité de l'Europe et la stabilité internationale ». Plusieurs voix commencent pourtant à remettre en question ce soutien occidental. Dans un sondage réalisé aux Etats-Unis, une majorité d'Américains (55%) se disent pour une fin des livraisons en Ukraine. Un souhait entendu par Donald Trump, qui promet la fin de l'aide américaine s'il revient au pouvoir en 2024. La sortie du conflit se fait en tout cas attendre, et certains estiment que la Crimée pourrait débloquer la situation si elle était cédée à la Russie. Nicolas Sarkozy a évoqué cette idée, mais aussi le chef du cabinet du secrétaire général de l'OTAN, Stian Jenssen, avant de s'excuser d'avoir imaginé ce scénario. Pour Kiev en effet, céder des territoires « reviendrait à choisir délibérément la défaite de la démocratie ». Poutine semble en tout cas reprendre le dessus depuis la purge dans ses rangs et la mort de Prigojine. Mais aussi depuis que les chiffres de l'économie russe reprennent des couleurs. La récession sera bientôt du passé malgré les sanctions occidentales. Alors qu'il paraissait affaibli en juin lors de la tentative de putsch par Wagner, le chef du Kremlin reprend aussi de sa crédibilité sur le plan international. Après avoir pris la parole lors su sommet des Brics, il recevra bientôt le président turc Erdogan. Pendant ce temps-là, en Ukraine, où la contre-offensive patine depuis plusieurs semaines, la mission sociale parcours le pays pour soutenir les familles. Les conflits au sein des foyers sont exacerbés dans ce contexte de guerre, et la mission sociale épaule notamment les femmes. C dans l'air s'est rendu à Mykolaïv, dans le sud de l'Ukraine, pour suivre ceux qui, jour après jour, font le pari de la résilience. Alors, l'aide occidentale à l'Ukraine peut-elle se fissurer ? Poutine a-t-il réellement repris le dessus ? Quels sont les dégâts familiaux dans les foyers ukrainiens en proie à la guerre ? DIFFUSION : du lundi au samedi à 17h45 FORMAT : 65 minutes PRÉSENTATION : Caroline Roux - Axel de Tarlé - REDIFFUSION : du lundi au vendredi vers 23h40 PRODUCTION DES PODCASTS: Jean-Christophe Thiéfine RÉALISATION : Nicolas Ferraro, Bruno Piney, Franck Broqua, Alexandre Langeard, Corentin Son, Benoît Lemoine PRODUCTION : France Télévisions / Maximal Productions Retrouvez C DANS L'AIR sur internet & les réseaux : INTERNET : francetv.fr FACEBOOK : https://www.facebook.com/Cdanslairf5 TWITTER : https://twitter.com/cdanslair INSTAGRAM : https://www.instagram.com/cdanslair/

Cela fait maintenant deux mois que Kiev a lancé sa contre-offensive contre l'agresseur russe. Les combats sont intenses au sud et à l'est du pays, et c'est justement dans la région de Donetsk que s'est rendue notre correspondante pour suivre les opérations d'une brigade d'artillerie ukrainienne.  De notre envoyée spéciale à Kramatorsk, Nous sommes avec des artilleurs de la 59e brigade ukrainienne. Ici, sur les hauteurs de la ville occupée de Donetsk, dans l'est de l'Ukraine, la guerre a débuté il y a neuf ans, et s'est intensifiée avec l'invasion à grande échelle de l'Ukraine par la Russie en février 2022.En plein milieu d'une route sur laquelle circulent des civils, un Grad, lance-roquettes de l'époque soviétique est rapidement déployé. Chaque tir compte - les artilleurs doivent être rapides et efficaces – et se mettre à couvert rapidement, comme nous l'explique ce soldat. « Les drones russes volent. Il y en a beaucoup ces derniers temps. C'est en ce moment, disons simplement, la guerre des drones. On nous prévient aussi que "oui, il y a un drone au-dessus de nous". Alors, nous transférons à un autre endroit, un autre poste. Rester au même endroit, ça n'existe pas pour nous. »Malgré le danger omniprésent, les artilleurs espèrent causer un maximum de dommages aux forces russes, comme l'explique Mykola, le major de ce bataillon de la 59e brigade : « Dans les conditions actuelles, nous avons appris à travailler avec des tirs ciblés. Non pas parce que nous économisons des munitions, mais parce que nous avons appris à frapper l'ennemi avec plus de précision. Le système est vieux, il date de 1973, mais avec nos mains, nous le réparons et menons à bien notre tâche de combat. »Le matériel occidental : « Une aide pour vaincre les Russes »L'armée ukrainienne possède une centaine de ces systèmes Grad, c'est cinq fois moins que la Russie. C'est donc sur l'équipement occidental que comptent les soldats ukrainiens pour faire la différence. « Grâce à nos partenaires qui nous soutiennent, nous avons reçu, en plus des systèmes sur lesquels nous travaillons, des équipements plus précis et plus efficaces, souligne le Major Mykola. Et cela nous aide à vaincre les Russes et nous les en remercions. »À lire aussiMissiles, chars et canons... qui sont les plus gros fournisseurs militaires de l'Ukraine?Sur une autre position de la brigade, c'est justement à l'aide d'un Howitzer, un obusier fourni par les États-Unis, que les soldats visent les positions russes. Ce canon léger est particulièrement apprécié pour sa facilité de manœuvre. Peu d'hommes sont nécessaires pour l'activer, et les obus équipés de GPS permettent des frappes de précision.Les soldats ukrainiens savent qu'ils sont en désavantage numérique et matériel, mais ils se battent ici depuis des mois, et ils sont conscients que les frappes sont essentielles pour percer les défenses russes, et envisager un succès de la contre-offensive ukrainienne.Suivez nos dernières infos, reportages et émissions sur la guerre en Ukraine

Sabin Becker was born in Germany in January, 1962. Her mother had been given thalidomide during her pregnancy. The drug was touted as the wonder cure for morning sickness, anxiety and other pregnancy-related issues. Only two months before Sabin's birth, governments including Germany finally recognized that the major effect of thalidomide was to cause serious birth defects in the children born to mothers who were given the drug. As you will hear in our episode, Sabin was born with extremely short arms and only two fingers on each hand.   If you ever wish to hear a story of someone who grew to be unstoppable, listen to Sabin and her story. She grew up and learned how to use alternative techniques to accomplish what most of us do with two fully formed hands.   Along the way, Sabin, her husband and their five-year-old son moved to America. Sabin thrives today even after suffering a major stroke in 2012. She determined after the stroke that she would “persevere until success happens” and success indeed happened for her. She walks and fully thrives today. In fact, in 2019 Sabin ran a full Los Angeles marathon.   Sabin's interview to me is one of the most inspirational and inciteful ones I have had the honor to conduct. “Persevere Until Success Happens, (PUSH)” is the coaching program Sabin started after recovering from her stroke. I am sure you will come away from this episode inspired and motivated to become more unstoppable yourself.     About the Guest: German-born Sabine Becker is an award-winning inspirational speaker. She has appeared on PBS and the Oprah Winfrey Network because she was born with very short arms and lives a fully independent life using her feet for daily living tasks. After a near-death experience, she developed the acronym P.U.S.H. ~Persevere until Success Happens~  Utilizing the diverse lessons, she has learned from the inside out, she is helping audiences worldwide to P.U.S.H. through challenges to create a purposeful and thriving life regardless of their circumstances.    How to connect with Kim: LinkedIn YouTube My Website Instagram Book website Buy the book     About the Host: Michael Hingson is a New York Times best-selling author, international lecturer, and Chief Vision Officer for accessiBe.

We're glad you're here.   02:35 Well, Michael, thank you so much for having me at the unstoppable mindset. This is awesome to be here. I'm so excited. And we're gonna have a great conversation.   02:46 I hope so. Well, why don't we start as, as often people say at the beginning, why don't you tell us a little bit about you as you were growing up? You were born in Germany. And as I said, and one of the things you told me with very short arms. What does that mean? short arms? Yeah.   03:07 Great, great question, Mike. Like I said, I was born in Germany in the early 1960s. And as you already said, I was born with short arms. Now, what does that mean? My arms are not fully developed there. Maybe? I don't know, I still have problems with interest in America, then maybe you could do centimeters. They I get confused too. So my arms. So what does short mean? I think that's a good question. About six to eight inches, and I only have two fingers at each hand. And the reason why that happened is because in the late 1950s, early 1960s, specifically in Germany, but also in Great Britain and Australia, and some other countries, but Germany, Great Britain, Australia, were the hardest hit the pharmaceutical complex going into decided to develop a med medication, which called watch called Thalidomide . And they told pregnant women or the doctors told pregnant women, it would be okay to take that medication in the beginning of their pregnancy, it would not harm the fetus. And of course history knows it. It turned out to be the worst pharmaceutical disaster in history. Because 20,000 Babies imagine that number that's that's humongous number of babies 20,000 Babies were born was abbreviated RM somewhere even born with abbreviated legs and you know, I do have completely normal legs. Others were were born with disabilities and 60 plus sent Micah 60% of a third of my babies never saw their first birthday. So it was truly one of it or no, it is considered the worst catastrophe in pharmaceutical catastrophe in history. And as some   05:22 Thalidomide was very visible here, too. I remember it growing up and hearing all about it and all the controversy. So   05:28 yeah, I think so. I mean, I wasn't around, but yet in America, but, but what happened here in America, which makes America really very unique, is the General Surgeon General. Dr. Francis calci. She saw what happened overseas, and she did not allow the medication for Thalidomide  here in this country. And that's why thankfully, America has not had that, that many, so little mite affected children. Most of our children are like me, they are coming from a different country. They were born in, you know, Germany, Great Britain, and maybe to American parents, or they immigrated here to this country like I did to, so that it's very rare to find, I mean, there are there the specially what I hear from a lot of my friends, their parents were overseas in the in the military. And that's how they got the mother got exposed to this hello to my drug.   06:40 Well, what was it supposed to accomplish what was full and full and why supposed to be?   06:46 Well, it was being set. Number one, it was being said it is as safe as a sugar pill. And it will help the pregnant woman to cope with anxiety, insomnia, and especially morning sickness. So then, and you know why that was so popular. I just understood this, this these last few years, because I have done a lot of research. Why this bag it became so popular in Europe, because people were still very anxious because of World War Two, World War Two, just you know, can't was years ago it you know, it, people still remember the trauma of award war. So it was just a society that still dealt with PTSD. And there can the wonder drug, the sugar pill that was going to take everything away, just take away the anxiety, take away the insomnia. And that's why so many people went for it. And these poor mothers never knew that it would harm there. Yeah,   08:03 well, so you were born. And so how did it go for you growing up?   08:10 Well, believe it or not, I really, it's really crazy. Believe it or not. I really never realized that I was disabled. Because because I was, I was never treated as a person or a child at the time was a disability. My parents were very strict with me. And they were strict with my brother, too. We had the same chores in the house out, I had to vacuum vacuum clean, my brother had to back him clean. I had to do the show to do the dishes, my brother had to do the dishes. And that was unheard of in the mid 60s Towards the end of his 60s in Germany. Because in general, German, German society still thought of people with disability as less. Again, that's kind of the leftovers from the war. Because that's a terrible story with people who have disabilities during World War Two. I don't want to get into it. But the the idea was still there. People with disabilities are less. But my parents they fought that. And they fought it very successfully. And they also fought for that I had a physical and occupational therapist, who was able to teach me how to use my feet as my hands. So as a tiny little kid, maybe I don't really remember three, three years maybe old. As a tiny kid. I learned over many years, how to use my feet as my hands which included getting dressed, brushing my hair at The time drawing little pictures then lay down when I was old enough to ride, riding with my left foot, everything you and your listeners and the viewers do, I do with my feet. And that even today includes driving a non modified car. So I grew up not having any notion of that I was different. Because I didn't think of myself as different. The kids I played with, didn't think I was different sometimes. Oh, what happened to your arms? But then I said, Oh, I was born this way. And the kids. Okay, let's play. It was not a big affair. I was not. You know, I had my little roller skates. I had skis. Gosh, what did I do as a kid? I did so much. I even climbed a tree. Believe it or not with tiny little hands. I hung on somehow. No, I didn't. But I distinctly remember that cherry tree I climbed up on. I did everything like other kids.   11:08 You're saying you are not really a great fan of trying to climb a tree today? Is that what I've   11:12 you know, maybe not. The smartest thing to do. But I was fearless. Mike.   11:23 Was your brother a Thalidomide ? Baby?   11:25 No, no, he was born three years later. And the German government forced gluing and tie the manufacturer of Valetta made forced green attire to take when the dial of the market and that was in November 1961. And I was born in January of 1962. So I had a done this a year before that. I would today have regular arms. It was just they knew going into I knew about it. And that's the the other tragedy Yeah, that's that's a big issue. And they wanted to make as much profit as possible to their finally work hard. And hey, the it has to be put out of the market. And so many kids like myself, we could have been saved from real hardship because I make it easy. But I think for my parents, it was extraordinarily difficult to raise a child with such as severe disability, and dealing with a society that the mental attitude of society at the time, specifically in Germany, I don't talk about America at all, but specifically in Germany, and I the are the obstacles they had to jump over. Because there was no support, there was no, no help for those parents. They just try to organize themselves and basically look what they are going to do. And many parents, they were so frustrated and just depressed some some parents, and they gave their children up. So they were raised in homes for the disabled, because it was a true feat to raise a child with such an unusual disability.   13:29 But you bring up some some really interesting points. And with my life, there are a lot of similarities. First of all, the way our parents treated us, and the view that they took of us as human beings, we were not considered less. I won't say that my parents wouldn't say that I was different. Or would they they knew I was blind. But I was I was supposed to, according to doctors be put in a home because no line child could ever grow up to do anything. And my parents rejected that. And they also brought me up. As you that is we were supposed to do all the chores and things like that. And my brother, who was two years older and sighted and I were treated the same as as it should be. And so I never even really thought much about being blind as being different. I just thought it's the way I am. And I knew that other kids weren't blind, but it goes back to what our parents decided. And that set the tone because like you there was no bitterness. And we grew up with primarily kids and in environments where we were not treated as less. And my I had some teachers that helped along the way too, just because of things that I was required to doing. class that other kids weren't required to do. Like, when we had spelling tests, I would say the words out loud when the tests were being graded. So my test was spelling the words out loud, which I love to say, also got me prepared for being able to do public speaking. But, you know, I was not really viewed as, as less or different. I know, I didn't necessarily appear in all the same social environments as other kids. I didn't go to a lot of the dances and things like that when we were in high school and all that. But by the same token, I wasn't viewed as an obstacle or less than other kids. And I think that's the way it ought to be. I think that the schools where I grew up, eventually started getting materials in and a teacher to help with from you learning Braille and other things like that. But it's, it's all part of really having a mindset that says, We're all people that have gifts, and we shouldn't be diminished, because our guests are different than others.   16:05 I love that. We have our gifts. Absolutely. And they're different. And you and I have talked before this podcast, and we definitely have a lot of similarities in our lives. And I'm so glad to see you're here to you interview me. And it's such an incredible to somebody like like minded mind, some word. Oh, my gosh, my English sometimes.   16:34 Not you're you're absolutely doing fine. There's no problem at all. So you you went to school, did you? Did you go to college in Germany?   16:45 No, what I did, I graduated high school in Germany. And then again, that was a feat, because normally, disabled children were put in Sundar Shulin, which means special schools, special schools, that's the translation. And my parents did that for a couple of years, because it just didn't know any different. But then my mother said, You know what, I'm not going to accept that because I do not want to have less for my daughter, because it was less I just had it, there were all kinds of disabilities. I was thrown into classes with people who had learning disabilities. It just, it just didn't work for me. And so my mother realized that and she said, I'm not going to accept that Sabine is going to go to a regular school. I went to a regular Elementary School in the fourth grade. So I did stay for three years. Yeah, because my first grade, first, fourth grade was my first year in a regular mainstream school. And because we didn't have an integration we have, we have today, it just was unheard of. And, and then I continued to high school and it was a Catholic High School in Germany. And I remember the nuns, the principal, a nun, what is it called the head? Yes, mother subcarrier. She told me, Sabine, you want to go to school here, you're going to do everything like everybody else. We will not make exceptions. And I said, Sure, of course. So I had to do a PE, I had to do a sewing, I had to learn how to sew with my feet. It just what was that called household management. I don't even know what those classes were. And yes, thank you, thank you, you and your you call it different here in America. But that's what I had to do. And what that taught me again. And that reinforced, I was not different from anybody else, I might have to do things differently. But I did it. And that mindset has followed me throughout my life.   19:09 And that says it should be it doesn't mean that you, you won't need some tools to allow you to do the same things that other people do. Which means as you said, you might do them differently. But it doesn't mean you can't do them. And I think that that's one of the key points that so many people miss about the whole issue of disabilities. First of all, disability doesn't mean that we're not able it doesn't mean that and it shouldn't mean that. We've got to get away from that. That kind of an attitude and mindset. But what it does mean is that we're different, but so is everyone else. There are a lot of people who are left handed their therapy, people who are bald, who don't have hair, they lose it or whatever. That makes them different and they have to accommodate that in some ways, but the reality is we're all different. And there's nothing wrong with that. I one of my favorite speeches by the founder of the National Federation of the Blind Dr. Jacobus, Tim Brook, who is a blind constitutional law scholar actually not a speech, but an article is called a preference for equality. And one of the things that he said is, in the article, essentially, that equality doesn't mean you do things exactly the same way. It means that you get what you need to be able to accomplish the same task. But equality doesn't mean doing it the same way. equality means that you have the tools that you need to have to do it. And I think all too often people say, Well, if you want equality, then you got to be able to sit down and and use the same tools everybody else does. Wrong answer. That is not what it should mean. That's not what it was me. I remember being in kindergarten in Palmdale, I had when I grew up there. We have moved from Chicago when I was five. And I remember my parents having a very strong, viciously furious argument with a school principal who wanted me to be sent to the School for the Blind in Northern California. And my parents said, Absolutely not. We want him to go to a regular public school. Now what I've been able to thrive with the School for the Blind, yes, at that time, the academic standards were good. But my parents said, there's no reason that he can't go here. And we're not going to allow it. And they were shouting at each other, I remember. But they prevailed. And I went to public school. And there were some challenges for a while until Braille came along for me to be able to use because the school didn't know how to get it. But we, we need to all recognize that in reality, just because we do things differently, it doesn't mean we can't do them.   21:59 Exactly. And that's something I've run into my into in my life on many, many times, because we know that and many of your listeners us know that. But not everybody knows that. Sometimes I'm sure you too. You just meet people who just assume because you're different, I'm different, that we can't do something. And that is something I've been literally fighting against all my life. I've tried to educate because I was a social worker, psychologist, before I started my public speaking. And I tried to educate and we have made many, many strides. Since I've been a kid, especially goodness, it's a world of difference. But there still needs to be education that   22:58 So what did you do after high school?   23:02 After high school, I was a free spirit. And I said, Oh, yeah, no, still today. After high school, I just decided that I will move to Paris, France. And why Paris France because I thought I could be just the new Picasso. I could be the new van Gogh, I could be. Whatever was because I loved art. I still love art to this day, I learned how to draw with my feet. In a way I might say so myself. It was good. I mean, it was not Picasso. But I just enjoyed it. And I wanted to study art. But guess what? My parents said no, absolutely not. Kind of a, you know, a starving artist type thing. But I still went to Paris. But in the end, I decided against studying art. I studied social work and then psychology. And that probably was a good idea. Because otherwise I might be a starving artist.   24:12 You could have taken up cooking you know? Yeah.   24:17 Yeah, well, yeah. I mean, there were so many routes I could have gone. But I had love for art. I still have a love for it to this day, but earning a living one of the foot artists and they do okay, I think what I know of some of them they do okay. But I think it was a good route because the other thing I'm very passionate about is helping others helping people to, to use that adversity and turn them into really meaningful opportunities. And because that's what I had to do, and I can't Come up with a push P U S H survival guide who push it stands for you already said it earlier, persevere until success happens. And I came up with it after my life or during a near death experience. I see   25:20 if you would Yeah. Oh   25:21 my goodness. Yeah. This is jumping a lot of hedge, because there were so many things still between my college education and my life altering event. Can I just say, I have a son Nicola was born in 1983. And I think that's, that's what I'm so proud of my beautiful son grew up in a beautiful young man, who is almost 40 years old today. And that was a tough time. Because again, I had no clue. What do I do? Was this the 1010 pound baby or eight pounds? I don't know, what you do is persuade. What do you do when you do? Well, I have small arms, I have some use of my small arms. So what do you do, and I had to literally push until I figured out how to change his diapers, how to dress, how to modify his clothes. I modified them by having Velcro on his gloves, and how to get them in and out of his bed. So there's how to carry him. There's so many things, I just had to come up with different ways of doing things. And again, I was married at the time, my husband is diseased now. He died when Nicola was five years old. And so I was after that time, a single single mom with a disability. And that there was there, those were tough times. I mean, you just like every difficult journey really starts with we're putting one foot in front of the other. And that's what I had today to do. Day by day by day, I couldn't even think about where I wanted to go. I just wanted to get through the day was Mykola. So he would not have a disadvantage because his mother is disabled.   27:38 Well, and of course, the issue is going back to what is really disabled, right? Yeah. And of course, we're not in in the reality of it all. We again have this concept of a disability, but it's so does everyone. So you, you made the decision, that you were going to find ways to accomplish the tasks that you needed to. And I would assume that if there was something that you really had difficulty doing that you would enlist some help to get that done. But your goal was to make sure that you could do all the tasks that you needed to do.   28:14 Absolutely. And I really love what you just said, I made the decision. And that's it. Life is about choices. We're not just being thrown into life and allow the current version of our circumstances to decide for us. No, we make the choices. Because that is so important. I see so many people, especially when I was a social worker, so many people just allowed circumstances to determine their life, their quality of life. So I made the decision. I mean, and I've loved my son, and I would have done everything to this day I will do anything for him. And if it means I have to come up with innovative waves. I did have some help from for some reason. I remember she was a sister like a Catholic type sister, who prep little meals for Nicola who have maybe was a household choice who took a put a give him a bath. But that didn't really didn't last very long. Maybe Nicola. When he was one year old, I was in with my husband at the time. We were we're pretty much on our own. But I had a good reason I had it figured out because, again, push. That's just what we have to do. We have to take the decision to push.   29:46 Now where were your parents in all of this at that time. All my   29:50 parents were in Germany, and my father was a handful. He was brilliant scientist, but my mother I had to take care of him like, some hobbies, brilliant people. So she had her hands forward, my dad and my brothers still lived at home at the time. And they came to visit of course, but they just were not. They're just right next door to help.   30:21 Yeah, I kind of figured that they stayed in Germany from the way you were describing it. On the other hand, they were grandma and grandpa. Did they spoil grandchild when they had the chance?   30:30 Oh, my gosh, yeah. I'm telling you, it's a real point to the point of saying, Mom, no.   30:42 Parents are supposed to do   30:43 absolutely. And today I'm a grandparent, and I do exactly the same thing. You know, they see it they like it a grandma, can you buy it for us? Guy's   30:57 so you, you did that? And, you know, but But it went on? Well, how did Nicola deal with? Or did he ever come to the conclusion? Mom's different? And did you ever have discussions about that?   31:13 No, you're not. That's interesting. Because, I mean, he grew up with me. And so he saw me ever from the first day of his life, he saw me every day. And I watched this different do that, because I talked to him with my legs instead of with my arms. And he, he felt as a baby, I'm talking now that his dad helped him differently. But so it was not a big deal for him. And later on, in my life, in his life, I should say, when he was maybe a teenager, diva when we met people, and people say, oh, you know, your mom is so amazing. And as a teenager, he rolls his eyes and say, Yeah, whatever. She is just my mom stuff. It was not a big deal. He was you know, I'm just mom. So it's that's how my mom is no big deal. But,   32:12 but but he but he never came to you and said something like, Mom, you use your feet so much. How come you're not a very famous soccer player and earning us lots of money?   32:22 Maybe that would have been my kid.   32:24 You see, now you know, now we're getting to it? Well, again, that's great.   32:29 That's my career paths vary are   32:33 a new new thing to explore. It's not too late. The other thing is, though, that once again, it comes down to how you approached it. Right? You You didn't make it a big deal. Not that you didn't do things the same way your husband or later other people did. And your son recognize that and I'm sure still clearly today does.   32:59 Absolutely no, I didn't make a big deal. When I raised Nicola, I was, oh my gosh, I was actually young mother 21. And so I just didn't, I didn't think about it, all I wanted to do is raise my son, check that he has enough to eat and, you know, love, of course, first food to drink that he has everything that he goes to kindergarten, that goes to elementary school and so on. I was so busy, so focused. And then I was also a full time working mom, I was so focused on those things. I didn't even think for the longest time ever had that, that I'm different, that my life definitely is different. I didn't have the time to think that.   33:51 So you you approached life that way, which makes perfect sense. And so now is he in the US today? Or is he still in Europe or what?   34:03 You're so we came to America when he was five years? Yeah. When we were? We were? He was five years old. And there was a free spirit. I was a free spirit. Oh, yeah. And you know, I didn't even want to stay in America. It just kind of was kind of an accidental thing.   34:23 1988 Yeah. And then   34:25 I just happened, you know, circumstances on top of those circumstances. I fell in love here in America because my husband had died at the time. And so we just stayed and that was not planned. And we came to love America and we still love it to this day, so much that I became a US citizen in 2002. And my son just a one year later, in 2001. And my son is active duty minute Jerry today he is in the army. He was, gosh, how do you call these people? Protective Services for? My gosh, I'm just matters what, uh, Jim Mattis. General Mattis. He was a security detail for him. And on top, he never protected Donald Trump. But because he didn't have that clearance, but he was state as Secretary of State. And as Secretary of Defense, so ever several of them, they rotated in and out at that time, quite a bit. And now he's working for the CID, which is the military. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. And he's, you know, I mean, you're a viewer see me, I'm a very small person. And blonde long hair, kind of hippie type. Still. I don't know how that happened that my son is in the army. And but I'm proud of him. He took the path he thinks is working for him. And it seems to work for him. He is Officer now and Officer now in the military, in the army, and I couldn't be proud of them.   36:27 That is super. Well, how did you say you came to America in 1988? And so you, what were you doing for work once you came here?   36:41 Oh, yeah, that's a good question. Once I had that famous green card, I was allowed to work. Yeah. But I got it. I got it. I was allowed to work. I worked as a social worker mainly mainly was children who couldn't fit into mainstream school. It was through Job Corps. And also I worked for a very special in the arts, that's an organization that allows that gives the means to people with disability, diverse disabilities to produce art project and to keep them engaged. And that was a wonderful place to work. And I work for access Alaska, because we used to live in Alaska at the time, access Alaska that provided outdoor opportunities again for people with disabilities. I love that work and I hope I made a difference in there.   37:43 So you, you found things to do now, where do you live today?   37:47 Today, I just live outside of San Diego and Southern California was nice and warm. What town Temecula Temecula didn't make. Wine Country? Yeah, the wind   38:02 contract in California game country.   38:05 It's so beautiful. Today actually, we have a little bit cold day and we actually did see some rain this morning. Ah, like oh my gosh, my mom. Yeah, there's a little bit rain. Yeah.   38:17 Where I live in Victorville. So we're about 130 125 miles from you. We're having rain. And it's supposed to. Oh, it does. Sometimes. It's up on the desert, but it does rain sometimes.   38:32 So I think I drove through there went back. I know where Victorville as I was just going to say, isn't that high desert?   38:40 Yes. On the way to Las Vegas is what most people would remember victory.   38:44 Exactly. That's how I remember Joe. We even   38:48 occasionally gets snow. Mostly we don't we're in a valley. So the snow goes around us. But still we get some. But it's supposed to get up to 58 Fahrenheit today. So you guys have a warmer down there. We lived in Vista for six years and love it.   39:04 Oh, yeah.   39:07 So you So you worked and what kind of things happened in your life? You mentioned something about I think mace it wasn't may 17 2012.   39:22 Yeah, May 17 2012. Because I will always remember that date. What happened on May 17 22? Have I had a near death experience and age really truly, I mean, I just barely survived it was I suffered a massive stroke while I was driving my car, and massive stroke is terrible. But while you are driving your car, it's probably one of them was places you can have a stroke and not that there is ever a good place to have a stroke but as that's what was happening into me, and only to the grace of our higher power, I survived, because I had a passenger that day with me. And that passenger never really rides with me. So that day I had a passenger with me who grabbed in the last second the steering wheel. And that's the reason why we didn't crash through the guardrail into the Rio Grande River. It happened in North northern New Mexico, and very isolated mountain road. And that in itself was very challenging. And that's why my stroke, the damage of my stroke was so extensive, because there was no cell phone reception. And it was very, very hard to get help, and a barely, barely, barely made to the Life Flight down to Albuquerque, where they finally almost three hours later, could give me the drug TPA, which is a blood clot busting drug, I was just barely still in that window, because I think there used to be a window of three hours. I just barely qualified for it. But my brain suffered pretty extensive, extensive damage.   41:25 Did you basically completely recover from that? Or is there still   41:29 Yes. Yeah, there's still a little bit damage. I couldn't walk, I could not talk, could not use my left foot for all daily tasks. And it took me one year of physical, occupational, and speech therapy. And it was, yeah, thankfully, I knew what push means, persevere, until I took that first step. That first step was such a monumental victory. And that first word, you don't hear anything anymore. Once in a while, I stumble over a word very rarely. But I had to really work on my speech with a speech therapist for the longest time. But thanks to God therapists and my own stubbornness, I am fully independent again, and I'm still driving my non modified car   42:30 pool. My wife is a paraplegic in a wheelchair. So our car is modified, it has hand controls. But she drives well, so yeah, like that helps. They won't let me drive and I'm really offended. Given the way most people drive around here, I don't see a problem. But you know,   42:51 that true, come down to Temecula area, you really have seen some monkeys on the stand and steering wheel? I mean, does they just pass gonna regardless, even on the right on their shoulder whenever   43:06 they do it up here? Or that clock until you move out of their way? And driving has not become very courteous anymore? No, no, definitely not. So you tell me more about push the concept and what you've done with it, and so on?   43:24 And that's a really good question. That's the essence of my coaching program. That's the essence of my when I'm keynote speaker. Because after my stroke, I realized what an incredible second chance I have been offered here that I have to make my life definitely count. And I want to help people to push through the adversity and use that adversity. As you know, reframe the adversity into meaningful opportunities. Because I believe that everybody in unto themselves has the opportunity to rebuild their lives, regardless of what adversity is. And he said, it's a while earlier, it is a choice to rebuild your life. When you fall down. You get up and that's what push hopefully teaches people I built a push Survival Guide. And in that survival guide, there's six push survival skills. And that's what I teach is a step by step program I walk people through because I believe that every single journey start with one step and you know what it starts with before even the one step. It starts with hope. Because if you do not have hope, you cannot take that first step. And I remember what my thinking was once I realized I cannot walk anymore on My gosh, you know, I was always so super active, various boards oriented, and I cannot walk again. But I was definitely, absolutely dedicated to take that one step because I had hope that one day, I will walk again.   45:19 And then you had the hope and did what   45:23 I took the first step. And that's what I tell people that this was a stroke recovery. But it's also it can serve as whatever adversity you see you have in your life you have, once you found the hope that you will recover from that you will turn it into a meaningful opportunity. You take that first step one, one thing I have, I've really thought a lot about and it's part of my push program, is we really have to watch that voice inside of our head. Because it is our chatter to you, it won't happen, it can't happen. I never I'm going to be to be able to do that I'm bad at this, we really have to watch our inner voice, our inner talk, because we are the most influential voice in our lives. Because we become it you know that we become what we believe. And I'm, if I believe I'm never going to be a good runner, I'm running. Also, if I believe I'm not a good runner, well, guess what? What's going to happen? So I'm really talking a lot about watching that in the inner voice. And as I said earlier, decisions, not your conditions or circumstances or ultimately determine your destiny. Well, of course, that's how I would work with people to really put them on that way. And one of the things also, I help people to figure out their why. Because if you don't know your why, all your efforts, I kind of just out in the world, just going left, right, straight up, down, up and down sideways. You really have to figure out your why. My way, my why, why I wanted to recover. Of course, the obvious reasons I wanted to talk again, I want to walk again. But I really took the stroke experience as a wake up call that I need to make a difference and assists people and changing their lives. And that was my why my motivator to work extraordinarily hard.   47:52 course there is, you mentioned the voice that's always discouraging you the other voice is there if we let it come through, which is the one that gives you hope or encourages hope. And then also says yes, you can.   48:07 Absolutely, absolutely. But you know, I don't know if you talked about that before. I'm a member of a toasted cup, a couple of clubs, we are, you know, a program for leadership and just speaking, giving better speech communication. And you wouldn't believe how often I hear well, I can't give a speech. I can't because I'm not a good speaker. Now we need to turn that thinking about, maybe I'm not a good speaker yet. Maybe I cannot give yet that excellent keynote speech. And it just takes its mindset. It's, like you said, an unstoppable, unstoppable mindset. And that really ties in with your show. That's why I was so compelled to come on your show. Because I like that unstoppable mindset.   49:03 I've had a number of people who have indicated an interest in being guests on unstoppable mindset, but they say I'm not a speaker, I wouldn't be a good guest because I'm not a speaker. And it's so hard to get them to understand. I don't care and our listeners don't care if you're a good speaker or not. The issue is do you have a story? And are you willing to tell it? Because if you're talking about the things you know about your speaking is going to be excellent anyway. And that's what really matters. I think that all too often we're taught not to have confidence. And that's the real problem. I know that many times I read in here about one of the biggest fears of all time is public speaking and yeah, for me, it hasn't been and I realized I Think about it that it's a problem for most people, because they've been conditioned to believe that way rather than recognizing that in reality, they're probably talking a lot better than they think they are.   50:11 Yeah, I think so. Do we have to look at here being on your podcast? I mean, we're kind of having coffee. It feels like you have your coffee over there and Victorville have my coffee over here, and to make law, and it's like, chatting over coffee. It's it's not, it's not a big deal. And yeah, I don't know what else to say. When we convinced ourselves we can. For the longest time I was walking around, saying, oh, Ma, I'm really bad at maths, oh, I cannot add two and two. Well, guess what? That's what happened. I'm not good at math, because I just believed I can't do it today. If I really have to add stuff up, I really can. It just, you know, make the choice to believe in yourself, and turn off that inner voice which sits on your shoulder and says, It won't happen, that can't happen. And that's really so   51:12 important. And you just said it, right? Turn off that voice and hand it off, you have the control over whether that voice is allowed to be a part of your life or not. And it doesn't need to be. Were you a coach before your stroke? What did you do before having the stroke?   51:29 I was a social work and psychology. So in a lot of ways I was a coach. But not formally, not not like a now I mean, I have my credentials as a social worker, and especially in psychology. But I mean, I coach people, of course, every single day I did, but I didn't see it as a coach. And i My love this was speaking everybody can hear I love to speak. And my love is full of speaking but I also love helping people Chang Chang Chang, oh my gosh, my English, change their lives. With the tools I give them through the bad six, six steps, survival tips and the poor Survival Guide. And there's so many things, the survival tips. They consist of hope, positive mindset of reframing, courage, resilience, and guest work, perseverance. And that's what I'm coaching people in.   52:41 Were you when you had the stroke and so on, and you had a lot of challenges. Were you afraid? Did you exhibit or experience a lot of fear?   52:50 No, no, I did not. Because I was on lala land. They i For the longest time for a week I was in the neuro Intensive Care Unit, which is a long time and the neuro Intensive Care Unit. No, I wasn't afraid. Things loaded by me   53:08 about or when you when you started to wake up and realize I can't walk and I can't talk and so on.   53:14 I was more surprised. I think I was more surprised. Because I was the sounds the person 50 to 50 year old person. And how can I go from this healthy very sporty person to and who eats well, who eats organic? Who does all the right things to somebody who cannot walk? Okay, no talk, I was more surprised. The reason why I was not afraid maybe there were moments of fear once in a while here and there. But the reason why I was not particularly fearful was because I knew I would recover. That was just not if I recover it was when it was a question of when.   53:58 And that was the leap. You know, I? I asked the question because I see fear all around us in so many ways. So many people are afraid. And as I say it, they become blinded by fear. And I know that for me, being in the World Trade Center. I had created as I've said on this podcast, and in speeches I've given I created and didn't even know it at first a mindset about what to do in the case of an emergency in the World Trade Center. Because I got training, I trained myself and I learned what I needed to do. I've never taught people to deal with fear, even though it's all around us. And we had so many examples of it. And we can see so many examples of it. So we're now writing a new book. It'll be out probably not next year, but the year after we're, I'm going through the first draft of it now. Yeah, it will be all about talking about the subject of being afraid. And the reality is that you can learn to control fear and make it a positive influence. In your life, not something that tears you down. So it goes back to that same, which voice Do you want to listen to?   55:07 Correct? Yeah. And I love that. And it really comes down to choices. Do I want to hear or listen to that voice which sits on my left shoulder telling me all kinds of crazy stuff? Or do I just want to listen to my voice who says, Sabine, this might be difficult. Some people might say you can't. But who cares? Really quick, because I know, we really have to end here pretty soon, on the seventh anniversary of my stroke survivor date, I decided to be part of the Los Angeles marathon. And for your listeners and viewers who don't know how long a marathon is crazy, long, 26.2 miles. That's an enormous amount of back, guess what I trained? Because I really wanted to show that even somebody who recovered from Ostrog, who does not have RMS believes in herself, that I can finish the Los Angeles marathon. And in March of 2019, I finished the Los Angeles marathon.   56:16 How long did it take? Ah,   56:18 you don't want to know, I think six hours or something?   56:21 Look, I've talked to people who took a lot longer than that.   56:24 Yeah, it was kind of a trot. It was not a run because it's you have to pace yourself on such a long distance. And I still ran a couple of more half marathon switches does 13 miles. And to this day, I'm still training running and spinning, you know, the stationary bikes? And because it just will I run out another marathon probably would surprise me. But I just believe in just exploring where our boundaries even are aware of what what can we do in life, because I believe all of us can do so much more than we think we can. And in the end as a closing swabbed, I think, what I, what I have discovered on this journey, is really, I would like to encourage your listeners to think, what is the legacy we leave behind? What is the legacy for our children, grandchildren? Or people who are close to us? How do you want them to remember us? And that's, I want to be remembered as a person who could push through adversity, who made a lot of difference in other people's lives. That's what I want to be remembered. But when one day I'm gone. My son hopefully remembers that. And my grandchildren.   57:54 How old are your grandchildren by the way? Oh,   57:57 there's three, six and nine years old. Oh, Ma? Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. Actually, my little little guy. Kiwi. His name is Kiwi like the fruit. Kiwi. He turns for tomorrow. November 3, yay.   58:18 I'm happy birthday for us. Are you today live?   58:22 No, unfortunately, not being a military is my son have sent anywhere in everywhere. But now they're at the East Coast in North Carolina. But I spent five or six weeks with them this summer. And my son is hoping to be stationed in Europe, Germany, Belgium. So I'm kind of hoping that although it's a long ways of life, for me, but you know, Europe is always in my heart. And I go over to Europe as often as I possibly can.   58:56 If you can run a marathon, you can fly to Europe. Absolutely. Absolutely. You know, you talked a lot about push, tell us maybe some tips that our listeners can use to push through their own adversities and deal with challenges they have in their lives if you would.   59:14 Absolutely. And I think I mentioned them throughout the program, but I will summarize them again, that I believe every single difficult journey starts with hope. If you don't have hope, then it is kind of difficult to start a journey. And then you take the first step. Even if it's a baby step like the marathon, where do you start 26.2 miles, you start with one single step. You put the one foot in front of the other, though, that's what we start on. And then the voice we talked a lot about that nasty, nagging voice what what, what you can do and what can't happen to in that voice off, and it's, it's a habit, I still sometimes hear this crazy wise, where Sabine you really can do it, you can do it, you know, shut up. That's what I literally say, See, see, actually the stop sign the red red stop sign, I stopped, and I see in front of my eyes the stop sign. And that really helps, because visualizing stop is really helpful. And then of course, discover your why. And how you do that. Think about what are you passionate about? What what are you good at? And how do you want to contribute to other people? Don't think so much about the money? How am I how much money can I make? It was a third of Sure, sure, money is important. But think, How can you change people's lives? How can you contribute to humankind? And that is your why. And you know, I'm I have the gift off talk. So I use my gift to make a difference in other people. And then of course, I already brought it up, I am really, really very set on the legacy, the legacy we're leaving behind. And what I have done, this is crazy. And I have I have helped other people to do it is write my own eulogy. And that sounds kind of like oh, why do you write your own eulogy? The reason why when I write, I want people to read that when I'm dead. And there's still so many things in there like writing a book. So I better get off my butt to write that book, I find writing our own eulogy, very inspiring. So we can live up to that image people will read about at our funeral oh well, celebration of life, I prefer that. And so it's very inspiring to Butte people to do that. So they really see where they still need to change things in their lives. That's   1:02:16 I was just gonna ask you if you've written a book, so that is something for you to work on. And let us know about when it gets written and published.   1:02:23 Absolutely, absolutely. I'm working very hard on and I'm writing and myself but also with the assistance of some people who who know what they're doing, because that's one of my secrets. Get help when you need help. Writing. I love writing. I think I'm fairly good at it. But I know I need some help with that. So I surround myself with people who can give me that help. And that's very important. That's one of the big steps in you really need to realize your weaknesses and then surround yourself with people who you know who can help you literally.   1:03:07 Well, I absolutely agree with that and wholeheartedly endorse it and believe that it's all about teaming and there's nothing wrong with absolute teaming with other people to get things done. How can people reach out to you and learn more about your coaching program and maybe reach out to you to see how you may be able to work with them and help them   1:03:30 absolutely. So my website is SabinBeckerspeaks SabinBeckerspeaks.com And you can go on, Sabin is yes, s a b i n, B like boy, B e c k e r speaks s p e a k s.com. speaks sabinbeckerspeaks.com. If you are Don't type in Sabin Becker, or no arms probably would come up with that any easier. Even Sabin, you know, I googled myself, just to see how I come up. I think I googled myself, Sabin, no arms, and I came up fairly on the top of a Google search. And if you go, I have a free gift for your viewers and listeners. If you go on that website, there's a button which says Download Free, free like capitalized three survived the push Survival Guide, and it gives you an overview of a six push survival skills. And then I would like to offer that to your listeners. Because I think it's so important to take the choices to really reframe our adversity into beautiful opportunities,   1:04:57 and how can people take advantage of you're coaching program, is there a way they can sign up and reach out to you?   1:05:03 Yes, good question. There's another button, a couple of buttons. And it is really highly visible. They're like gold code type patterns big big. It says, schedule a free 30 minute call with Sabin and as again, totally free. You can sign up for discovery cards, we can see how I can help you best reaching your personal goals in life.   1:05:32 There you go. Yeah, Sabin I want to thank you very much for being here with us today. A lot of inspiration, a lot of interesting things to think about. And I do have one more question, what do you do every day to keep your, your mindset active? Do you analyze what you do at the end of the day or anything like that? Do you meditate or anything like that, to reinforce what you do?   1:05:55 You know, I'm probably should meditate. Like, there's very, very focused person. But you know, just a little bit over a year ago, I, I almost wanted to learn Italian ever since I was in high school, because I travel every year to Italy, and I never know the language. So last year, I started to use a to learn Italian. And now I'm considered an intermediate speaker. And because I do it every day, and I have groups I can practice with through Duolingo. And that gives me kind of the relax I that I need from this constant business is constantly on a camera that's constant research, is constant networking. I love to learn a new lesson and a new language. And that keeps the mind active like nothing else can learning something new.   1:06:52 Learning is always cool. And it's good to learn new things. And also one of the things that we're putting in our book about fear is step back, at least at the end of the day and look at the day and what went well, what didn't go well. And what went well, how do you make it better? what didn't go well, don't be angry or upset about it. How do you move forward from it, which is as   1:07:17 much? Absolutely. And that's what I'm thinking. Don't beat yourself up because some some things just won't turn out. Sometimes I go to these meetings and I don't get a contact or I do I say something wrong, whatever. It happens to me too. And I don't beat myself up. It's just a learning experience. And we need to move forward. Don't listen to that ugly voice in your head, move forward, step by step and have hope.   1:07:47 Absolutely. Well, Sabin, again, thank you for being here.

Ils ont fui la guerre en Ukraine pour se réfugier en Moldavie, un petit pays d'Europe oriental enclavé entre la Roumanie à l'ouest et l'Ukraine à l'est. Sur les 8 millions de personnes qui ont fui le conflit, 600 000 ont transité par la Moldavie et 102 000 se sont installées dans cette république qui partage plus de 1000 Km de frontières avec le voisin ukrainien. La Moldavie est donc l‘un des pays qui accueillent le plus grand nombre de victimes du conflit entre la Russie et l'Ukraine, si l'on s'en rapporte à sa population générale estimée à 2,6 millions d'habitants. Un an après le début de l'offensive russe, le 24 février dernier, notre reporter, Igor Strauss s'est rendu en Moldavie pour voir les conditions d'accueil de ces réfugiés, leurs besoins, leurs doutes et leurs espoirs. Alors que le conflit s'éternise et que tout retour au pays devient utopique dans un futur proche, comment vivent-ils cette situation ? Comment se projeter dans l'avenir quand cet avenir est incertain et qu'il s'écrit en pointillé ? Nous avons suivi le travail de l'ONG Médecins du monde qui offre un suivi psychologique aux réfugiés Ukrainiens mais aussi aux moldaves et aux humanitaires qui travaillent sur le terrain et qui sont, eux aussi, affectés par les récits glaçants en provenance du front ukrainien. Et côté moldave, comment gérer sur le long terme, cet afflux de réfugiés ? Comment les loger, les soigner, les rassurer, leur offrir un avenir dans un pays qui fait face à de grosses difficultés structurelles, d'accès à l'emploi et aux soins ?

Today marks the one year anniversary of the invasion of Ukraine. Estimates vary widely, but most place the total number of civilian casualties between 10,000 and 30,000, and count at least 250,000 soldiers killed and wounded from both sides. Andrea was joined by those who the invasion has affected most, those who've had to leave their homes and their loved ones behind, and start a new life in Ireland. Alex, Nataly, Mykola and Tanya all spoke with Andrea this afternoon…

This week host Derek E. Silva is joined by Web3 privacy advocate Mykola Siusko to explore the next wave of the internet. They dive into important topics such as whether blockchain can exist without crypto, preventing AI bias, and the future of decentralized governance. Plus, a look at the privacy market outlook. Tune in for all the insights.

Mykola Murskyj with Razom for Ukraine joins the podcast to discuss the organization's work in Ukraine, the anti-corruption climate there prior to the invasion and steps that can be taken now. Mykola also discusses the Enablers Act.

Bombardamenti russi a Kiev, Leopoli e Odessa, Putin: "Attaccate le infrastrutture energetiche ucraine. La risposta sarà dura agli attacchi in territorio russo". Ne parliamo con Roberto Bongiorni, inviato a Mykolaïv per Il Sole 24 Ore. A proposito di Ucraina, in Italia si discute se sia il caso di fare una grande manifestazione nazionale a favore della pace. Non c'è ancora un data, come conferma ai nostri microfoni Francesco Vignarca, coordinatore delle campagne della Rete Italiana Pace e Disarmo.

Guests featured in this episode: Mykola Gnatovskyy, a renowned Ukrainian legal scholar who was recently elected to serve as judge at the European Court of Human Rights. Before taking up this very prestigious nine-year appointment at the ECHR, Mykola was a professor at the Institute of International Relations, Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv. He also advised the Ukrainian Minister for Foreign Affairs on international criminal justice, and was a member of the International Expert Board on Crimes Committed during Armed Conflict at the Office of the Prosecutor General of Ukraine.From 2015 until 2021, Mykola served three consecutive terms as President of the European Committee for the Prevention of Torture and Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment.In March of this 2022, he was one of the original signatories, together with Ukraine's Minister of Foreign Affairs and the former British Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, calling for the establishment of a special tribunal to investigate Russia for the crime of aggression against Ukraine. GLOSSARY:What is the International Criminal Court?(01:58 or p.1 in the transcript)International Criminal Court (ICC): permanent judicial body established by the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court (1998) to investigate, prosecute, and try individuals accused of genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity and to impose prison sentences upon individuals who are found guilty of such crimes. On July 1, 2002, after the requisite number of countries (60) ratified the agreement, the court began sittings. It is headquartered in the Netherlands at The Hague: source What is the War in Ukraine?(04:32 or p.2 in the transcript)In early November 2021 Russia began building up military forces along the borders of Ukraine, for the second time in a year. Over 100,000 Russian military personnel and assets were deployed in Crimea and in the Voronezh, Kursk and Bryansk regions of western Russia. Further Russian forces were deployed to Belarus for a series of exercises close to the Ukrainian border and Russian naval assets from the Baltic and Northern fleets deployed for exercises in the Black Sea. Tensions escalated following a US intelligence assessment in December 2021, which suggested that Russia could be planning an invasion of Ukraine in early 2022. On 24 February 2022 Russia launched military action in Ukraine, with forces crossing into the country from Belarus in the north, Russia in the east and Crimea in the south. Russia's actions came just days after President Putin officially recognized the self-declared independence of the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) and Luhansk People's Republic (LPR), the regions of eastern Ukraine that are under the control of Russian-backed separatist forces, and deployed “peacekeeping” forces to the region: source What is the massacre in Eastern Anatolia?(07:18 or p.2 in the transcript)Massacre in Eastern Anatolia, also known as Armenian Genocide: campaign of deportation and mass killing conducted against the Armenian subjects of the Ottoman Empire by the Young Turk government during World War I (1914–18). Armenians charge that the campaign was a deliberate attempt to destroy the Armenian people and, thus, an act of genocide. The Turkish government has resisted calls to recognize it as such, contending that, although atrocities took place, there was no official policy of extermination implemented against the Armenian people as a group: source What is the Wagner Group?(17:02 or p.5 in the transcript)Wagner Group: a network of businesses and groups of mercenaries that have been linked by overlaps in ownership and logistics networks. Entities making up the network have been described in sanctions designations by the U.S. Treasury as being involved in a wide range of activities, including working to suppress pro-democracy protests, spreading disinformation, mining for gold and diamonds, and engaging in paramilitary activity. The group, such as it is, first appeared in Ukraine in 2014, where it assisted the Russian military in the annexation of Crimea. Since then, paramilitaries and businesses have branched out to Syria—where they have fought in support of embattled President Bashar al-Assad while securing a foothold in the country's energy sector—as well as to Libya, Sudan, Madagascar, Mozambique, and the Central African Republic: source What is the occupation of Crimea and Eastern Ukraine?(31:38 or p. 8 in the transcript)The Crisis in Crimea and Eastern Ukraine: on 22 February 2014, President Yanukovych disappeared from Ukraine and a new government was installed by the Ukrainian parliament. Later that month unidentified military figures, widely thought in the West to be Russian personnel (this was later confirmed), surrounded the airports in Crimea, a majority-Russian peninsula in Ukraine and the Crimean autonomous assembly was taken over by pro-Russian forces. In March 2014 a declaration of independence was issued by the assembly and a subsequent referendum on union with Russia was held. Since then, Russia has maintained its control over Crimea and supported pro-Russian separatist forces who also took control of parts of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions of eastern Ukraine (the Donbas) in 2014. Fighting between Russian-supported separatists and Ukrainian government forces has continued in the Donbas for the last eight years despite the negotiation of the Minsk Agreements in 2014/2015 which called for a ceasefire, the withdrawal of all foreign armed groups and constitutional reform recognizing the special status of Donetsk and Luhansk: source  Democracy in Question? is brought to you by:• Central European University: CEU• The Albert Hirschman Centre on Democracy in Geneva: AHCD• The Podcast Company: Novel Follow us on social media!• Central European University: @CEU• Albert Hirschman Centre on Democracy in Geneva: @AHDCentreSubscribe to the show.

Giselle, Dalibor, and Iulia learn from Mykola Bielieskov, Senior Analyst for Ukrainian NGO "Come Back Alive" which provides support for Ukraine's military, about the strategy of Ukraine's long-anticipated counteroffensive; Ukrainian civilian support for the military campaign; Western resolve in supporting Ukraine; Russian military capabilities (or lack thereof) in countering the Ukrainian military's advances; and what specific aid Ukraine needs to win the war. Show notes: https://savelife.in.ua/en/about-foundation-en/ (Come Back Alive)

I spoke with Mykola Vorobiov, journalist and political-military analyst based in Kyiv.  Mykola has devoted the past eight years to analyzing and writing about Russia's war on Ukraine, including covering the front in Donbas. Mykola evaluates prospects for Ukraine's much anticipated counter-offensive in the key Kherson region in the South.   He examines the composition and morale of Russian forces.   He also reviews the political and economic affects of the war on Ukraine - and the solidity of U.S and European support. Mykola is realistic: he underlines that Ukrainians understand that the war will not be over soon.   But he makes a compelling case for why Ukraine will prevail.

POUTINE : LE BOURBIER UKRAINIEN – 11/05/22 Invités ALAIN BAUER Professeur au CNAM Responsable du pôle sécurité, défense et renseignement ANTOINE VITKINE Journaliste Réalisateur du documentaire : « La vengeance de Poutine » ANNIE DAUBENTON Journaliste spécialiste de l'Ukraine Ancienne conseillère culturelle à l'Ambassade de France à Kiev Auteure de « Ukraine, l'indépendance à tout prix » PIERRE HAROCHE Chercheur en sécurité européenne Institut de Recherche Stratégique de l'École Militaire Selon les autorités ukrainiennes, l'étau serait en train de se desserrer autour de Kharkiv, deuxième ville du pays qui fait figure de verrou stratégique pour contenir la progression des troupes russes dans le Donbass. « Nos forces armées nous ont donnés à tous de bonnes nouvelles de la région de Kharkiv. Les occupants sont progressivement repoussés », a affirmé le président Volodymyr Zelensky dans une vidéo. « Les localités de Cherkasy Tychky, Rusky Tychky, Roubijné et Bayrak ont été libérées » dans la région de cette grande ville, a précisé l'état-major ukrainien sur Facebook. Néanmoins ce recul des troupes russes s'accompagne d'une intensification des bombardements sur la ville et les frappes aériennes russes se poursuivent également dans d'autres régions, notamment dans le sud-ouest du pays où l'attention se porte désormais. Selon le commandement ukrainien, les troupes russes sont en train de frapper « sans merci » la cité portuaire Mykolaïv, située avant Odessa, le grand port du sud sur la mer Noire qui est désormais la cible d'une offensive meurtrière. Mais l'ambition du maître du Kremlin ne s'arrêterait pas là. Le renseignement américain qui avait prédit l'invasion de l'Ukraine s'attend aujourd'hui à une guerre au long cours avec une extension du conflit jusqu'à la Transnistrie, région de Moldavie qui a fait sécession en 1990. Dans ce contexte, Joe Biden a déjà adressé un message clair à son homologue russe en signant une loi permettant d'accélérer l'envoi à l'Ukraine d'équipement militaire. Réactivant ainsi un dispositif emblématique datant de la Seconde guerre mondiale. Il a aussi obtenu l'appui du Congrès américain, qui a débloqué une nouvelle enveloppe faramineuse de près de 40 milliards de dollars pour le pays de Volodymyr Zelensky. Le Pentagone a également confirmé que des Ukrainiens ont été « envoyés contre leur gré en Russie ». « Nous n'avons pas de chiffres mais nous avons vu des signes montrant que des Ukrainiens sont emmenés d'Ukraine en Russie » a développé John Kirby, questionné au cours d'un point presse sur les affirmations du gouvernement ukrainien depuis plusieurs semaines. « Je ne sais pas combien il y a de camps ni à quoi ils ressemblent », a ajouté le porte-parole du Pentagone. Selon les autorités ukrainiennes 1,2 million de personnes auraient ainsi été déportées en Russie et placées dans des camps. Moscou avance des chiffres analogues mais parle « d'évacuations ». De son côté, le Quai d'Orsay a fait part de son « inquiétude » sur ce point. « Il n'y a pas de confirmation, mais si cela venait à être confirmé, les déplacements forcés sont interdits par le droit international » a affirmé la porte-parole du ministère des Affaires étrangères. Jean-Yves Le Drian a également averti lundi que la guerre en Ukraine « sera longue et difficile ». Alors quelle est la stratégie russe en Ukraine ? Faut-il craindre une extension du conflit à la Moldavie ? Et que sait-on des déplacements de civils ukrainiens en Russie ?

Mykola had a regular job in Mariupol. On days off he fixed bikes, led bicycle tours. After the war started, he needed to find a way out.

Robert talks with Mykola Bilokonsky, who wrote the incredibly useful guide How to Talk About Autism Respectfully (https://coda.io/@mykola-bilokonsky/public-neurodiversity-support-center/how-to-talk-about-autism-respectfully-84), which has gotten over two million hits on Twitter. They talk about burnout, giving yourself permission to slow down, speaking truth at work, and self-internalized ableism. Serious topics, sure, but that didn't stop them from having a good time!

Ukraine : face aux atrocités de Poutine LES INVITÉ.ES : - GÉNÉRAL DOMINIQUE TRINQUAND - Ancien chef de la mission militaire française auprès des Nations Unies - PIERRE HASKI - Chroniqueur international - « France Inter » et « L'Obs » - ELENA VOLOCHINE - Journaliste – « France 24 » - NICOLE BACHARAN - Politologue - Spécialiste des Etats-Unis Au 45ème jour de l'invasion russe, la communauté internationale est sous le choc après le massacre de Kramatorsk. Le bombardement meurtrier survenu hier de la gare de cette ville située dans le Donbass, à l'est de l'Ukraine, a suscité l'indignation. Le président ukrainien Volodymyr Zelensky a demandé « une réponse mondiale ferme ». Pour lui, c'est « un autre crime de guerre de la Russie pour lequel chacun parmi ceux impliqués sera tenu responsable ». Et le bilan est lourd : 52 personnes tuées, dont 5 enfants, selon un dernier bilan des autorités locales. Si les civils étaient rassemblés dans cette gare, c'est qu'ils cherchaient à fuir la région par crainte d'une offensive russe qui apparaît imminente. Car après avoir tenté en vain de prendre la capitale Kiev, les troupes russes se concentrent en effet désormais sur cette région. C'est ce qu'ont indiqué dans un bulletin publié hier les services de renseignement britanniques. Marioupol et Mykolaïv sont également dans la ligne de mire des autorités russes. Ces dernières ont d'ailleurs opéré un changement de ton en évoquant du bout des lèvres le nombre élevé de morts dans leurs rangs. Une manœuvre qui qui vise sans doute à préparer l'opinion russe à un bilan humain plus lourd encore. La présidente de la Commission européenne Ursula von der Leyen et le chef de la diplomatie européenne Josep Borrell se sont rendu hier à Kiev, pour une visite symbolique. La dirigeante européenne avait annoncé ce voyage la veille en signe de « soutien indéfectible » à l'Ukraine. Elle a remis au président ukrainien Volodymyr Zelensky le questionnaire nécessaire à une demande d'adhésion à l'Union européenne. « Cela fait partie de notre victoire contre l'agresseur russe qui veut inverser le chemin démocratique qu'a entrepris l'Ukraine », a affirmé sur Twitter Olha Stefanychyna, la vice-Première ministre ukrainienne en charge de l'intégration européenne. Si les dirigeants européens ont pu se rendre à Kiev, c'est que la région est pour l'heure considérée comme sûre. Après plus d'un mois d'occupation très brutale par les troupes russes, de nombreuses cités du nord du pays ont en effet retrouvé la liberté depuis une semaine. Mais les corps et les esprits sont profondément marqués. Dans la région de Tchernihiv, les habitants racontent l'horreur des jours passés. Certains qui étaient retenus en otage racontent le traitement inhumain qu'ils ont subi. Des personnes affamées sont mortes pendant leur détention. A l'extérieur, les maisons étaient pillées, les immeubles détruits. Un véritable cauchemar qui vient juste de s'interrompre. A des milliers de kilomètres de ce conflit meurtrier, l'armée française poursuit et accélère son renforcement dans le combat dit « de haute intensité ». Car après des décennies de guerres asymétriques, les opérations face à des armées aguerries et très équipées, où toutes les fonctions opérationnelles sont susceptibles d'être activées ont fait, depuis quelques années déjà, leur retour dans les considérations des militaires. Et la guerre en Ukraine conforte plus que jamais cette analyse. Les responsables russes des crimes commis en Ukraine seront-ils jugés ? Comment se reconstruire après avoir vécu l'occupation des troupes russes ? Comment l'armée française se prépare-t-elle au retour de la guerre de haute intensité ?

Dans le sud de l'Irlande, le port européen de Rosslare est le deuxième point d'accueil des réfugiés ukrainiens après l'aéroport de Dublin. 17 000 Ukrainiens sont arrivés dans le pays depuis le début du conflit. Le bateau est notamment le mode de transport choisi par ceux qui voyagent avec leur voiture ou leurs animaux. C'est un chamboulement de plus dans ce port qui a déjà été transformé par le Brexit. Les 450 réfugiés ukrainiens hebdomadaires arrivent justement sur ces nouvelles liaisons ajoutées avec Cherbourg, en France. Le voyage leur est offert par la compagnie Stena Line et ils sont accueillis par 200 bénévoles qui se relaient sur place.  De notre correspondante à Dublin, Un énorme ferry de la Stena Line vient d'accoster au port. L'homme qui court partout, le téléphone à l'oreille s'appelle Sean Boyce. Ce natif de Rosslare coordonne l'aide humanitaire pour les 37 réfugiés Ukrainiens à bord ce matin. « C'est la fin d'un long périple et le début d'un autre voyage émotionnel. Ils sont dans un nouveau pays, l'adrénaline disparaît et on est comme une pause pour eux », dit Sean. Des panneaux traduits en ukrainien indiquent un énorme chapiteau où les réfugiés peuvent se servir en vêtements, en couches, en sous-vêtements neufs, croquettes pour chien, 30 000 euros de dons au total. « On est un village portuaire, on voit de nouvelles personnes tout le temps. Et c'est aussi notre histoire en tant qu'Irlandais. On a un passé difficile et il y a cette volonté en nous d'aider. » ► À écouter aussi : L'Irlande s'organise pour l'accueil des réfugiés ukrainiens Avec son gros sac sur le dos, Natalia se sert de quelques conserves pour plus tard. Le sol d'une église, un hôtel, une famille. La suite du périple est encore inconnue pour cette jeune enseignante et sa fille. « Je viens de Mykolaïv, dans le Sud. C'était un long voyage… Nous sommes parties le 10 mars », explique-t-elle. Elle a laissé de nombreux proches derrière elle. « Ma mère, mon fils à Odessa. Mon grand-père et mon oncle », ajoute Natalia. Elle a choisi l'Irlande « parce qu'[elle] parle anglais et parce que les gens sont gentils et ouverts, un peu comme chez [eux]. »   « On fait au jour le jour » Sean montre une photo de son chiot Ted à la fille de Natalia qui vient de se choisir un chien en peluche dans l'air de jeu. « Tu peux l'appeler Ted aussi peut-être ? » La fillette acquiesce. « Elle a 6 ans et demi », dit Natalia. « Je ne lui ai pas expliqué qu'on est en guerre. Je dis qu'on est en voyage, elle comprend. On fait au jour le jour. »  Beaucoup de ces réfugiés ne parlent pas anglais. Dimitri est un traducteur ukrainien installé en Irlande depuis 20 ans. Il enchaîne les petites nuits pour aider ses compatriotes sur son temps libre. « Je leur montre comment le système fonctionne pour l'éducation, pour les enfants, comment remplir les formulaires… Vous imaginez si votre maison était bombardée sous vos yeux ? Le plus important, c'est qu'on les comprenne et qu'on les accueille avec le cœur. Le reste suivra. »  Ici, les réfugiés reçoivent une carte SIM et un numéro PPS pour travailler. De nombreux employeurs de la région se sont déjà manifesté pour recruter ces Ukrainiens dans leurs entreprises.

POUTINE, LES ARMES CHIMIQUES... ET NOS LIGNES ROUGES – 22/03/22 Invités ALAIN BAUER Professeur de criminologie - CNAM Auteur de « La guerre qui revient » GÉNÉRAL JEAN-PAUL PALOMÉROS Ancien chef d'état-major Ancien commandant suprême de la transformation de l'OTAN ISABELLE DUFOUR Directrice des études stratégiques - Eurocrise ANNIE DAUBENTON Journaliste-essayiste Auteure de « Ukraine, les métamorphoses de l'indépendance » Au 27e jour de l'offensive russe en Ukraine, le président ukrainien Volodymyr Zelensky a formulé à nouveau sa volonté de parvenir à une rencontre avec son homologue russe Vladimir Poutine « sous quelque forme que ce soit ». Un « compromis » peut être trouvé sur le Donbass et la Crimée, a-t-il, à condition que ce compromis soit ratifié par le peuple ukrainien par référendum, et accompagné de garanties de sécurité pour son pays. Mais le Kremlin a répondu ce matin de façon très évasive, jugeant les pourparlers en cours avec Kiev pas assez « substantiels » ni « énergiques ». Sur le terrain, les bombardements se poursuivent sur nombre de villes : Kiev, Kharkiv, Marioupol, Odessa, Mykolaïv… Un nouveau couvre-feu est décrété dans la capitale que les troupes russes cherchent toujours à encercler. Mais ici comme ailleurs, l'armée russe rencontre la résistance tenace des Ukrainiens. Le plan de Poutine qui comptait, qu'en trois ou quatre jours, sa guerre éclair provoquerait l'effondrement des forces et du gouvernement de Kiev n'a pas eu lieu. L'effet de sidération qui aurait dû paralyser la population et les autorités a, au contraire, provoqué un sursaut patriotique des Ukrainiens qui continuent de freiner l'avancée de l'armée russe dans le pays. Dans ce contexte Moscou a décidé de passer à la vitesse supérieure dans son arsenal. Pour la première fois, la Russie a affirmé ces derniers jours avoir utilisé des missiles hypersoniques, les « Kinjal », qui ont la particularité d'échapper à tous les systèmes de défense anti-aérien. Et le recours aux armes chimiques est de plus en plus redouté. Pour le président américain, le chef du Kremlin est « dos au mur » et il est désormais « clair » qu'il prévoit d'utiliser des armes chimiques et biologiques en Ukraine. « Les accusations récentes de Vladimir Poutine selon lesquelles les Etats-Unis disposent d'armes chimiques et biologiques en Europe et que Kiev en possède également sont fausses et montrent que le président russe envisage lui-même d'utiliser de telles armes », a expliqué Joe Biden lundi. Mais si tel était le cas, une réponse occidentale « sévère » s'imposerait, a-t-il dit sans en préciser la nature. Il a également indiqué avoir averti Vladimir Poutine d'une réponse américaine en cas de cyberattaques contre les infrastructures vitales des Etats-Unis. Mais que veut dire Joe Biden lorsqu'il évoque « le prix fort » à payer pour la Russie ? Quelle est la ligne rouge pour l'Otan ? Qui a, aujourd'hui, une prise sur les choix de Vladimir Poutine ? Qui peut l'influencer dans le cadre du conflit en Ukraine ? Enfin que s'est-il passé au Kremlin et dans le ciel de Russie ces derniers jours ?

In the second of a two-part Across the States special on the War in Ukraine, Mykola Vorobiov, Austrian Marshall Plan Foundation Fellow & Journalist based in Kyiv, Ukraine, sat down for another interview on March 15, 2022, with Karla Jones, Sr. Director of the ALEC Task Force on International Relations and Federalism offers his eyewitness testimony on the situation on the ground in Ukraine as Ukrainians resist the Russian invasion and describes what Ukraine/Russia peace negotiations might look like. Mykola expresses gratitude to the US for our assistance and his opinion of Zelenskyy has evolved from cautious skepticism of the neophyte politician's ability to command a nation at war in Part I to describing him as “The leader of the free world!” in Part II.
