Ukraine: Volodymyr Zelensky, un président sous pression pour conclure la paix

Le président ukrainien Volodymyr Zelensky se dit optimiste sur les chances de faire avancer les discussions visant à mettre fin à la guerre entre la Russie et l'Ukraine et annonce une rencontre avec Donald Trump dimanche 28 décembre en Floride. Les questions sensibles, telles que le sort du Donbass, devraient être abordées. Sous pression de l'administration américaine pour conclure un plan de paix, Volodymyr Zelensky a connu une fin d'année délicate. Il parvient malgré tout à conserver la confiance des Ukrainiens.  Donald Trump voulait un accord avant Noël. Son vœu n'a pas été exaucé. « Beaucoup de choses peuvent être décidées avant le Nouvel an », veut croire Volodymyr Zelensky, au lendemain de discussions avec les envoyés de la Maison Blanche. En dépit de cet optimisme affiché, le président ukrainien est soumis à forte pression, d'autant que les positions russes restent, pour l'heure, inflexibles. Mardi, Volodymyr Zelensky a détaillé devant la presse le plan de paix révisé en 20 points, le présentant comme la meilleure tentative de l'Ukraine de mettre fin à la guerre. Le document aborde un large éventail de questions, allant des éventuels arrangements territoriaux aux garanties de sécurité que Kiev souhaite obtenir pour prévenir toute future agression russe, en passant par les plans de reconstruction du pays ravagé par la guerre. Selon Volodymyr Zelensky, les diverses sections du plan « reflètent en grande partie la position commune ukraino-américaine ». Reste quelques points de blocage, à commencer par la question épineuse de l'avenir du Donbass. La Russie exige que les forces ukrainiennes se retirent des territoires de la région de Donetsk qu'elles contrôlent encore. Le président ukrainien ne peut accepter cette demande. À écouter et à lire aussiVolodymyr Zelensky, président ukrainien S'il cède, « il n'aura plus d'avenir politique », tranche le politologue Volodymyr Fessenko du centre Penta à Kiev. « En Ukraine, le sentiment qui domine est qu'il est impossible d'accepter de reconnaitre juridiquement les territoires occupés comme étant russes. Si, en cas de cessez-le-feu le long de la ligne de front, une partie du territoire ukrainien restait sous contrôle russe, la plupart des Ukrainiens pourraient accepter ce scénario mais à condition que ces territoires ne soient pas reconnus juridiquement comme étant russes. » Militairement, l'Ukraine ne peut pas se permettre de céder des zones fortement fortifiées de Donetsk, note pour sa part la chercheuse ukrainienne Olena Prokopenko, du centre de réflexion German Marshall Fund. « Céder des territoires fortifiés sans combat offrirait à la Russie une base idéale pour intensifier son invasion. Si l'Ukraine acceptait ces concessions, notre position sur la ligne de front serait gravement affaiblie. Les abandonner sans combat, donner à la Russie des territoires qu'elle n'a pas réussi à conquérir en onze ans depuis l'invasion du Donbass, constituerait une décision militairement désastreuse », explique-t-elle.  Le scénario dans lequel Volodymyr Zelensky se verrait contraint de céder tout le Donbass à la Russie « ne pourrait se produire qu'en cas de situation catastrophique sur le front ou dans le secteur énergétique, qui ne lui laisserait pas d'autre choix », avance Volodymyr Fessenko. Concessions territoriales  Quoi qu'il en soit, le président ukrainien n'en sortirait pas indemne. Seule concession à laquelle Volodymyr Zelensky se dit prêt : l'Ukraine pourrait retirer ses troupes des zones de l'ouest de la région de Donetsk encore sous son contrôle, pour les transformer en une zone démilitarisée dans le cadre d'un éventuel accord de paix avec Moscou, à condition que la Russie retire ses forces d'une zone équivalente. En tout état de cause, Volodymyr Zelensky estime que la création d'une zone démilitarisée doit être approuvée par le biais d'un référendum. Parallèlement aux discussions autour du plan de paix, le président ukrainien a dû affronter une tempête intérieure ces derniers mois. L'affaire Midas, vaste affaire de corruption qui touche le secteur énergétique ukrainien, a poussé les ministres de la Justice Herman Halouchtchenko et la ministre de l'Énergie, Svitlana Hryntchouk à démissionner le mois dernier. Volodymyr Zelensky a ensuite dû se défaire de son plus proche conseiller, Andriy Iermak. En écartant le chef de l'administration présidentielle, qu'il n'a pas encore remplacé, tout en maintenant une ligne relativement ferme dans les pourparlers de paix, sa côte de popularité est remontée. Selon une enquête récente menée par l'Institut international de sociologie de Kyiv (KIIS), 61% des Ukrainiens lui font confiance. « Aussi étrange que cela puisse paraître, la confrontation autour du plan de paix de Donald Trump a une fois de plus aidé », affirme Volodymyr Fessenko. Le plan de paix amendé par Kiev prévoit également la tenue d'élections en Ukraine dès que possible après la signature d'un accord de paix. Le mandat présidentiel de cinq ans de Volodymyr Zelensky aurait dû expirer en mai de l'année dernière, mais il a été prolongé en vertu de la loi martiale en vigueur depuis l'invasion russe de 2022. Le chef de l'État a chargé le Parlement de réfléchir à des modifications de la législation électorale pour examiner la possibilité d'organiser une présidentielle. Olena Prokopenko y voit une « démarche habile » tant sur le plan intérieur qu'à l'international. « Cela envoie le signal qu'il redonne un rôle central au Parlement, qui a été largement marginalisé ces dernières années, en lui confiant une décision potentiellement historique. Sur le plan international, cela montre qu'il est prêt à participer à des élections et qu'il ne fuit pas ses responsabilités », explique-t-elle. Sur le plan international, cette initiative est vue comme importante car elle renvoie la pression vers Donald Trump, qui accuse son homologue ukrainien d'utiliser la guerre comme prétexte pour éviter une élection et se maintenir au pouvoir. « En acceptant de préparer un cadre législatif, Zelensky contraint Trump à faire pression sur Vladimir Poutine afin d'obtenir un cessez-le-feu, que ce dernier a rejeté à plusieurs reprises ces derniers mois. Cela permet de mettre en évidence que l'obstacle à la paix n'est pas l'Ukraine, mais bien la Russie », note Olena Prokopenko. Élection présidentielle  Dans le cas, très hypothétique, où une élection présidentielle pourrait se tenir avant la fin des hostilités, quelles chances Volodymyr Zelensky aurait-il de remporter le scrutin ? La probabilité d'une victoire du président sortant est « très forte », selon la chercheuse du German Marshall Fund, « non pas parce qu'il n'existe pas de griefs à son égard, mais parce que l'Ukraine a besoin d'une unité maximale pour résister à la pression de l'administration américaine dans le cadre des négociations de paix. Ses chances de victoire seraient aujourd'hui bien supérieures à ce qu'elles seraient après la guerre ». La perspective pour Volodymyr Zelensky de remporter le scrutin est plus élevée aujourd'hui, abonde Volodymyr Fessenko : « Les citoyens qui lui sont favorables ou neutres évaluent positivement son rôle comme chef de la politique étrangère et commandant en chef. Après la guerre, surtout s'il devait conclure un accord de paix perçu comme défavorable, ses chances pourraient diminuer. » Dans ces conditions, certaines figures de l'opposition estiment que Volodymyr Zelensky pourrait être tenté d'organiser au plus vite des élections. Conformément aux engagements pris par le président auprès de Donald Trump, la Rada, le Parlement ukrainien s'apprête à examiner la question de l'organisation d'élections. Cependant, « il existe une faible probabilité qu'un projet de loi sur les élections en temps de guerre voit le jour. Son adoption reste incertaine. Le scénario le plus probable pour l'an prochain serait la tenue d'élections uniquement si un accord de cessez-le-feu était conclu au premier semestre », pronostique Volodymyr Fessenko, qui constate que « même au sein du parti présidentiel Serviteur du peuple, nombreux sont ceux qui s'opposent à des élections en temps de guerre. Si l'opposition et les députés réticents se mobilisent, l'adoption d'une telle loi sera impossible », souligne le politologue. En Ukraine, l'opinion publique estime, dans une très large majorité, qu'aucune des conditions sécuritaires, juridiques ou structurelles ne sont réunies pour organiser des élections, note Olena Prokopenko. « Les Ukrainiens comprennent que ce n'est pas le moment. Il n'existe aucune demande sociale en ce sens, et ce débat est principalement ravivé sous la pression de la Russie et des États-Unis ». Selon le sondage récent du KIIS, seuls 9 % des Ukrainiens soutiennent l'idée d'élections en temps de guerre.

The Ethical Life
Why does the search for meaning matter now more than ever?

The Ethical Life

Play Episode Listen Later Dec 17, 2025 48:55


Episode 225: As digital noise continues to shape modern life, the latest episode of “The Ethical Life” turns inward, offering listeners a wide-angle look at how ancient ideas can help people navigate an era marked by distraction, isolation and growing cultural tension. Hosts Scott Rada and Richard Kyte revisit the seven-part series they released this fall based on Kyte’s public lecture program, “The Search for Meaning.” The series explored a set of foundational concepts — truth, goodness, love, beauty, the soul, justice and nature — each presented through the lens of a major historical thinker. This week’s conversation steps back to examine the project as a whole. Kyte explains that he launched the lecture series after noticing both a renewed hunger for purpose and a cultural landscape that makes deeper reflection difficult. With entertainment, social media, and algorithmic feeds competing for every spare moment, he says, people feel increasingly unmoored from the community, rituals, and shared practices that once helped anchor their daily lives. Rada and Kyte trace how that tension surfaced throughout the series. Topics such as goodness and the soul proved more challenging to condense, Kyte says, because they resist simple explanation. Others — including justice and nature — were difficult for the opposite reason: he had too much to say. Yet as the series progressed, he found that the ideas were more interconnected than he expected, each building on the last as the philosophical timeline moved from Socrates to Aldo Leopold. The episode also looks ahead. Kyte says he has begun the early stages of transforming the series into a book, drawing on months of research and the community discussions that followed each lecture. The core ideas will remain, he says, but he hopes to frame them more explicitly around the pressures of modern life and the need for intentional habits of attention.

On the 8th day of the waning moon in the Vedic calendar month of Mrgaśirsha, we celebrate the birth anniversary of Holy Mother Sārada Devī. This an exceedingly auspicious a day for our lineage especially if not also for all worshippers of the Divine Mother everywhere in every lineage. It is a special day for everyone, actually, because today, we celebrate the "avatarahood" of the Divine Mother Herself! In 2023, we gave the talk The Tantra of Holy Mother Sarada Devi exploring Holy Mother's central teaching, "don't find fault with others/no one is a stranger to you/the world is your very own": we tried our best there to point out the non-dual teaching embedded in this seemingly innocuous, but actually theologically dense, teaching. Then, we asked Who is Holy Mother Sārada Devī? in 2024. With the disclaimer that स्वरूपं त्वदीयं न विन्दन्ति देवाः, "even the gods do not understand her true nature", we tried to sketch out a brief biography of this mysterious avatāra of Mā. Also, I thought it would be helpful to contemplate Holy Mother both as the ideal student as well as the Guru in Sārada Devī as Tantrik Guru. In this talk we encounter her emphasis on japa, that is, the recitation of the holy name as the centerpiece of spiritual practice. This year, I thought we'd do something a little more esoteric: let's explore the link between Holy Mother and various forms of the Tāntrik Goddess, with a special emphasis on the red-hued Jaggadhātī (who is very likely Holy Mother's ishta besides Ramakrishna and certainly her kula-devī, family deity) and the red-hued Lalitā Mahātripurasundarī (or Ṣoḍaśī).We also make a few etymological claims also about Her name and about Sāradā as the patron deity of Kashmir and also Adi Shankara's Śrī Vidyā stronghold in the south: Sringeri Math. You'll find all of our talks on Holy Mother all in one place here. Today is also the Feast Day of the Lady of Guadalupe! Last year, we gave a lecture called Kālī = The Lady of Guadalupecomparing the two! It is to this day one of my favorite talks ever! But ultimately, what can we say about She who becomes the very words we use to praise Her? Who can praise Her here?

Episode 224: A recent article by Jason Feifer serves as the starting point for this episode of “The Ethical Life,” where hosts Richard Kyte and Scott Rada examine the quiet struggle many people experience when reaching out for support. Feifer’s piece argues that the fears holding us back — such as imposing on others, appearing incompetent, or being judged — are often misplaced. In reality, offering assistance tends to strengthen relationships rather than strain them. Rada and Kyte use that insight to explore why hesitation remains so common and what it reveals about modern life. Rada opens the conversation with a story from Thanksgiving, when he asked a relative to pass the butter while preparing mashed potatoes. The request was trivial, yet it offered a striking example of Feifer’s point: rather than being put out, the relative felt useful and included. That small moment reflects broader research cited in the episode, including a study featured in The New York Times, which shows that people who help typically feel more satisfied and appreciated than those who request support. Kyte connects the issue to cultural forces, noting that American society often elevates self-reliance as a virtue. Many people, he says, absorb the message that competence means handling everything alone, even when collaboration would be healthier. He recalls his experience trying to stabilize a struggling nonprofit as its interim leader. Although he initially tried to shoulder too much himself, he soon realized that without asking others to join in, the organization couldn’t build the collective capacity it needed. The episode also highlights how interdependency forms through everyday social rituals, including children’s birthday parties. Rada explains that critics once argued such celebrations encouraged selfishness. Instead, as Feifer notes — and the hosts echo — these gatherings helped establish mutual obligations among young peers, teaching them both to receive recognition and to reciprocate by showing up for others. Listeners also hear practical guidance on making responsible and thoughtful requests. The hosts discuss the SMART framework — specific, meaningful, action-oriented, realistic and time-bound — which helps ensure outreach feels respectful rather than burdensome. Kyte emphasizes that clarity is especially important for volunteers, who want to know not just that they’re needed, but how they can be genuinely useful.

The historiographical studies developed by Ruth Rodríguez Sotomayor, agraduate librarian of the University of Guayaquil, researcher at the HistoricalArchive of Guayas, and lecturer, are extraordinary. Her studies go beyond the limits of traditional historiography, or rather, they transcend the boundaries of the orthodox history, as Ruth Rodríguez Sotomayor rescues and exposes, through the study of symbols, the arts, sciences, and philology, of an almost unknown past of the Americas.And to speak of the Americas is to speak of the continent of civilizing godswhose traces are today silent vestiges of the original Golden Age.Certainly, Rodríguez Sotomayor's work opposes the aforementionedorthodox or “official” version, and thus, consequently, becomes a revolutionaryproposal.One of the most important fields of her studies is the prefiguration of theorigin of mankind in South America and the spread of its civilization to othercontinents. They are therefore connected to the essential works of distinguishedresearchers such as the multidisciplinary Francisco P. Moreno, the philologist andethnologist Emeterio Villamil de Rada, and the archaeologist Roberto Rengifo,since Rodríguez Sotomayor recognizes in America –or Pre-America as she aptlysheds light on it, that is, the America before the known America– as the nucleusfrom which the civilizing group emerged, migrating, projecting, and settling indifferent centers of the globe, expanding its civilization.Rafael Videla Eissmann (Chile, 1979) is a historian graduated from UniversidadCatólica de Chile.

Episode 223: Hosts Richard Kyte and Scott Rada take on a modern problem that feels both familiar and persistent: why so many people feel unmoored despite busier lives than ever. Their conversation explores whether stepping outside — even briefly — can provide a clearer path to reflection, balance and personal insight. The episode wraps up the show’s occasional series inspired by Kyte’s lecture program, “The Search for Meaning.” Earlier discussions explored justice, truth, love and beauty. This week, the focus turns to the natural world, which Kyte argues offers lessons not just about the environment, but about how people understand themselves. Kyte explains that outdoor settings operate on rhythms vastly different from those that dominate our daily lives. Wildlife, landscapes and seasonal change create an environment that moves at its own pace — slower, quieter and resistant to human control. That contrast, he says, forces people to shift from constant activity to simple observation, a state many find both uncomfortable and deeply restorative. Rada, attending Kyte’s recent lecture on the topic, shares stories from the audience discussions, including one student who began spending nights in a hammock on the bluffs above La Crosse. The stillness startled him at first, but ultimately became a source of comfort and clarity. Kyte notes that such moments push people to confront their surroundings without distraction and, in the process, learn something about their own reactions, fears and habits. The episode also explores the writings of conservationist Aldo Leopold, whose classic “A Sand County Almanac” helped shape modern environmental ethics. Kyte describes Leopold’s belief that understanding the land requires both affection and attention — learning the names of things, noticing seasonal changes and recognizing the ways humans fit within a larger community of living beings. Listeners hear personal reflections from both hosts, including Rada’s childhood memories of viewing nature through car windows and Kyte’s accounts of encountering wildlife just steps from busy city streets. Together, they argue that meaningful outdoor experiences don’t require remote wilderness or weeklong expeditions. Quiet city parks, early morning walks and small acts of noticing can offer the same rewards.

Episode 222: When a city planner mentioned that a large, developable tract of land might contain Native American artifacts, cohost Scott Rada started wondering how communities decide which parts of the past are worth protecting — and what the costs of preservation might be for the present. This week’s episode examines the tension between honoring cultural heritage and addressing pressing human needs, such as housing. Rada and co-host Richard Kyte unpack the ethical dilemmas that surface when new development projects run up against the remnants of older civilizations. Rada argues that while respect for the past matters, society’s first responsibility should be to the living — to families who need homes, jobs and public spaces now. He questions whether stopping or slowing modern projects for the sake of long-buried artifacts truly serves anyone. Kyte counters that the choice isn’t always binary. He suggests that reverence for the dead and care for the living can coexist, and that certain places — burial grounds, ceremonial sites or historically significant landscapes — deserve deliberate protection, even if doing so requires compromise or delay. Their exchange touches on Wisconsin’s effigy and burial mounds, the ethics of archaeology and how public policy shapes what gets preserved. Kyte points out that housing shortages typically stem from decades of zoning failures, rather than from the small number of sites deemed sacred or historically valuable. Rada pushes back, asking whether reverence for what once was can sometimes become an excuse for inaction. The conversation widens to include broader cultural questions: Why do humans feel compelled to memorialize the dead? What promises do cemeteries represent to future generations? And how long should those promises last — centuries, millennia, forever? Kyte argues that physical reminders of our ancestors keep societies grounded in gratitude and perspective. Rada wonders whether our fixation on physical places distracts us from the spiritual or emotional connections that endure regardless of location.

Before he became one of Britain's most familiar faces, Stephen Mangan was a bookish North London boy from an Irish working-class family- the son of a builder and a barmaid- who won a scholarship to a boarding school his parents didn't want him to attend. From there to Cambridge, to RADA, and to the West End, his path looks polished. But behind it lies grief, grit, and a fierce curiosity about the world that's shaped every creative choice he's made.In this episode of Full Disclosure, James O'Brien sits down with the actor, writer and presenter to trace Stephen's journey from a bullied schoolboy to star of Green Wing, Episodes and The Split. They talk about losing both parents young, finding refuge in acting, and why he now writes children's books with his sister, Anita- stories that rekindle the magic of reading he discovered as a boy with a book wedged between him and his dad at the dinner table.It's a conversation about loss, love, and laughter- and how Stephen's career, from Cambridge plays to Hollywood sitcoms, has been guided not by fame, but by joy, curiosity, and the determination to make work that he'd genuinely want to watch, read, or share with his own children.Find out more about Barrie Saves Christmas here

Episode 221: Hosts Richard Kyte and Scott Rada tackle one of the most enduring moral questions — how wealth, privilege and authority shape our understanding of fairness. Kyte argues that many of society’s moral blind spots emerge not from ignorance, but from a state of comfort. “When we’re insulated by prosperity,” he says, “we lose the capacity to recognize suffering — and once that happens, our idea of justice starts to shift.” The conversation begins with the lingering unease around the Jeffrey Epstein case. Rada notes that the story continues to capture public attention years after Epstein’s death, not because of its lurid details but because it still feels unresolved. Why, they ask, does accountability so often end where power begins? From there, the discussion widens — tracing the roots of moral perception from ancient philosophy to modern politics. Kyte describes how early Christian thinkers introduced the then-radical idea that all people possess inherent dignity, a belief that ultimately challenged institutions built on exploitation and hierarchy. That framework, he says, remains essential if society hopes to confront modern injustices such as human trafficking, forced labor and homelessness. Rada presses on the practical side of justice: even when we recognize wrongdoing, why is it so difficult to act? The hosts explore examples close to home, from underfunded public defenders to social systems that keep citizens separated by class. Each instance, they argue, reveals how distance — social, economic and emotional — allows inequity to flourish unnoticed. The episode also connects with Kyte’s ongoing public lecture series, “The Search for Meaning.”

Michael Sheen is an award-winning actor.After finding his love for the stage with the West Glamorgan Youth theatre as a teenager, he studied at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London. He spent the 1990s making a name for himself as a stage actor, shining in the classics from Romeo and Juliet to Peer Gynt as well as in 20th century masterpieces such as Look Back in Anger and Amadeus, receiving several Olivier Award nominations along the way.A relocation to the US in the early 2000s with his then partner, the actress Kate Beckinsale, and their young daughter Lily prompted a move into films. His breakthrough came in 2003 when he portrayed Tony Blair in a Stephen Frears film called The Deal. It was the beginning of what became an unlikely specialism: morphing into real people from recent history: Kenneth Williams, David Frost, Brian Clough, Chris Tarrant, and Prince Andrew – with two more outings as Tony Blair thrown in for good measure.Michael was born in Newport, South Wales, in February 1969, the eldest of two children to Meyrick and Irene. He grew up in Port Talbot from the age of eight and considers it his hometown. His first love was football, and he was spotted as youngster by an Arsenal talent scout to play for their youth team. His parents decided against moving the family to London and he turned to acting instead and graduated from RADA in 1991.Alongside the classic dramas, his range extends to appearing in fantasy and science fiction films such as The Twilight Saga and Tron: Legacy. Michael has said that the most meaningful project to him was a modern restaging of the passion play in Port Talbot in 2011, which involved the participation of a thousand local people, because it opened his eyes to the difficulties many of them were experiencing. He has since used his own money to fund the 2019 Homeless World Cup in Cardiff and set up an organisation which supports community groups. Michael lives in Wales with his partner, the actress Anna Lundberg, and their two young daughters.
