Most Europeans have taken off their "Russian glasses," but they fear getting drawn into the war.

“When a country is fully engaged in war, it lacks the capacity to create something innovative and long-term. Ukraine has been at war for centuries. We need to understand that development depends on how well a country can ensure long-term peace for itself. When I speak in Europe, I say: you’ve put too much faith in your peace. Because to some extent, it’s an illusion – and you, too, must be ready for war,” Volodymyr Yermolenko, chief editor of UkraineWorld, discussed the challenges of war for Ukraine, volunteering, and the fight against disinformation abroad.
