On Friday, Evan was joined by Svitlana Kenyuk, director at large with the Ukrainian Canadian Congress Regina Branch, to talk about the upcoming three year anniversary of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

The subject of Ukraine shattered the unity of Eastern Orthodoxy long before Russia's full-scale invasion began. In 2018 the Ukrainian Orthodox Church declared independence from Moscow with the approval of the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople. In response, Patriarch Kirill of Moscow broke off all relations with Constantinople, creating arguably the greatest schism in Orthodoxy for 1,000 years. There are now two main Ukrainian Orthodox Churches: one that supports independence and one still loyal to Moscow. As The Spectator's Ukraine correspondent Svitlana Morenets points out, Ukrainians who previously didn't care which church they attended now have to decide which to attend. Meanwhile, Dr Yuri Stoyanov, a fellow at SOAS, describes the alarming escalation of apocalyptic rhetoric encouraged by Kirill, whose talk of a Holy War against the forces of Antichrist is popular with soldiers but means little to the average Russian.  As we approach the third anniversary of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Svitlana and Yuri join host Damian Thompson to discuss the role of the Russian Orthodox Church in perpetuating the conflict. Has Holy War returned to Europe? And is it true that President Putin has secretly been taking part in bizarre quasi-shamanistic rituals?  Produced by Patrick Gibbons.

Journalist Svitlana Oslavska and her photographer sister Anna Ilchenko started the Old Khata Project in 2020 intending to create a photobook about rural houses in Ukraine. The 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine slowed down the project, but the duo finally published their book in 2023. They were born in the city of Sieverodonetsk which is currently occupied by Russia. Ms. Oslavska and Ms. Ilchenko talk about why this project is so important for better understanding rural architecture and folk art in Ukraine as well as the people they interviewed in their travels from the regions of Zakarpattia to Luhansk and from Chernihiv to Kherson. Their book artfully reveals traces of traditional culture in modern everyday life. https://www.oldkhataproject.com/en/

This week: Power play. The Spectator's Svitlana Morenets writes the cover article in this week's magazine exploring Zelensky's plan for his Russian conquests. What's his aim?

And finally: why is nostalgia such a powerful emotion? The Spectator's broadcast editor – and host of the Chinese Whispers podcast – Cindy Yu writes in the magazine about the ‘thriving industry' of nostalgia in China.

** To help, head to https://www.toukrainewithlove.org **It's been exactly a year since the world received the shocking news that Russian troops had invaded Ukraine, and exactly a year since the lives of millions of Ukrainian people changed forever.As news of troop movements, cities under siege, refugee crises and all kinds of geopolitical saber-rattling has come to those of us outside Ukraine, many of us have gone through varying stages of shock, dismay, and fear. But what have been harder to come by than news are stories: the stories of families whose lives have been upended, of women and men who have displayed true heroism, and of the bright light of miracles, big and small, shining through the darkness of war.And today, we're bringing you a few of those stories, starting with the story of Svitlana Miller and her remarkable organization, To Ukraine With Love. This is an organization we've gotten to know over the past several months and have been astounded at the sheer effectiveness of the work they're doing: providing immediate needs like food, sleeping bags, and generators — even building homes for people displaced by the war. We've been stunned by the impact of each dollar they've raised, all of which goes 100% to direct aid in Ukraine, not to wages for team members or any other expense.Svitlana Miller is a native Ukrainian who founded To Ukraine With Love  once she saw the immediate the needs of her friends, family, and country. She had been running an international education agency from the United States since 2009, and with her team and contacts in Ukraine, Svitlana was able to mobilize aid in a remarkably short amount of time.Svitlana was joined in this conversation by her team member Nancy Cadjan, who has over a decade of experience working with the Global 500 C-Suite and the heads of HR in the biggest organizations in the world. She lived in Russia in the 1990s and has been connected to Eastern Europe for the past 30 years and immediately jumped in to help with both feet when this crisis began.We were honored to have these two on, because they've been instrumental in helping us be more connected to Ukraine. Through them, we've met families whose homes have been literally destroyed in a moment by direct missile hits, and we've been able to learn from and connect with on-the-ground heroes who have changed everything about their work and lives to help relieve suffering.We really believe that these two, and this organization, are remarkable in the work that they're doing and the impact they're having. If you listen to this episode, and feel moved to help, you too can be a part of their direct relief efforts, getting food on tables and roofs over heads.

As we near the one year anniversary of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, I check in with the Ukrainian writers I interviewed for my 2022 episode A Nation Dreams of Itself. Maria Galina tells me about the difficulties of trying to create during wartime. Svitlana Taratorina and Volodymyr Arenev talk about why writing isn't just a form of therapy or escapism, but it's also a patriotic duty to keep Ukrainian culture alive in a war that's also being fought in libraries, bookstores and publishing houses. Borys Sydiuk talks about why science fiction is making a comeback over fantasy during the war. And I talk with Max Kidruk, the new breakout star in the Ukrainian sci-fi scene.
