From: Euromaiden Press — A powerful perspective from Valerii Zaluzhnyi, Ukraine’s Ambassador to the UK and former Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces.
Today, in 2025, Ukraine is not just fighting for its survival, Zaluzhnyi writes for Ukrayinska Pravda, – Ukrainians are battling against tyranny in the heart of Europe. While dictatorial regimes can quickly mobilize resources and manpower for war, they have one fatal flaw: when all decisions rest with one person, there’s no room for different perspectives.
Just as Hitler’s decision to invade the USSR proved fatal, Putin’s choice to attack Ukraine in 2022 might become his downfall. But this war requires not just endurance, but decisive and timely responses.
The democratic world must understand: will this war stay limited to Ukraine? That’s what should concern everyone. “And act!” Zaluzhnyi sums up. 🇺🇦
