Prytula in a news podcast: wartime donations, the rear as a target and illusions about the US elections
Ukrainian volunteer and charity founder Serhiy Prytula discusses the state of society, changes in donations and the US elections on the podcast "Damned Questions". The conversation is described as a reflective dialogue rather than a classic interview.
The Ukrainian outlet Ukrainska Pravda published a new episode of its podcast "Damned Questions" (Ukrainian: "Кляті питання") on 25 October. In it, journalist Yevhen Buderatskyi talks with volunteer and charity foundation founder Serhiy Prytula about where Ukrainian society stands today, during Russia's full-scale war.
According to the outlet's description, this is not a classic interview but rather a reflective dialogue. The topics include:
- how donations have transformed over the years of the war;
- why the rear is increasingly becoming a target for Russia;
- why people should not build illusions around the US elections;
- how much more Ukrainians should apologise to Poland for the historical past;
- why education is the main foundation of national security;
- whether President Volodymyr Zelensky has changed after political crises.
The headline of the conversation also mentions the cynicism of corrupt officials, a new social contract and "pink ponies" surrounding the US elections.
What victory means
One of the points highlighted by the publication is that victory is, above all, Ukrainians gaining a "planning horizon". The description does not reveal further details of the discussion; the full episode is available as video and audio.
