“Our enemies want us to die, we want to live. This doesn’t leave much room for compromise,” Dmytro Kuleba quoted Israel’s fourth prime minister, Golda Meir, during his speech at the #KyivJewishForum.

Jews and Ukrainians, in his opinion, are united not only by their unfortunate neighborhood and desire to live contrary to the plans of their neighbors. Anti-Semitism coming from Russia is another consolidating factor.

For many hundreds of years it has fueled among Russian elites a sense of superiority towards other nations. “All of this has only come to light and become clear because of Russia’s aggressive war against Ukraine,” concludes the Ukrainian Foreign Minister.
