This is the second issue of the Ukraine Calling relaunched. Our guest today is Andreas Umland — Analyst of the Stockholm Centre for Eastern European Studies
Andriy Kulykov (AK): OK, so this is the second issue of the Ukraine Calling relaunched. I’m Andriy Kulykov, I will be presenting this show, and our guest today is Andreas Umland. He is the Analyst of the Stockholm Centre for Eastern European Studies, and one of the people whose tweets and whose Telegram I read constantly. And even today I got at least two messages from Andreas – obviously not addressed directly to me, but to his rather big audience on Telegram – one of them is about the statement by the Amnesty International; it is the comment on what he calls the infamous Amnesty International report about the behaviour of Ukraine’s military. And another one, which came a bit earlier, is stories about Ukrainian Nazis were rare before 2014, and they surged at the moment when Russia’s plan faltered. Andreas has been in Ukraine, and I think for Ukraine, even before 2014, but my first question to you is, what are you witnessing changing in Ukraine since 2014, and in the world’s attitude towards Ukraine?
