I have never seen a country present a more unified front for so long under so much pressure. From Zelenskyy to his people all the way down to the foot soldier at the front. "We are Ukrainian, we fight, we will win."
No force on earth can overcome such dedication.
America used to be like that.
Afganistan and Siria ?
@@lucillekenney8311 As an English man I believe America is still like that, don't knock your country so much.
@@wuming2638 Russia was militarily involved in both Syria and Afghanistan
@@matthewneddeau7993 I think what Wu Ming means is while the Ukrainians are fighting bravely, they aren't fighting any more bravely than other countries have fought wars, most of which we don't even follow because it's not in the West's interests. Let's not use Ukraine's bravery to knock other countries. Also Ukraine hasn't even been fighting for a year now, that's not a long war, there's wars going on right this minute in the world that have been going on longer. Maybe instead of talking about how brave Ukraine is doing while we watch, we could do more to help them win.
An example in courage, tenacity and solidarity.
An exemplary people, leadership and resistance.
The world bows in awe and respect.

The world does what msm tells them to do , Ukraine is responsible for agitating this war , this war they will lose because of their rebellious nature and love of money coming in the form of aid and right into their foreign bank accounts , Zelensky gets to be rich , while his people suffer in poverty , your brainwash is real .
Exceptional!! Thank you, Ms. Amanpour and Mr. Isaacson. I heard of Ms. Mendel's book yesterday. It's on my wishlist, and likely will be sent to my 3 granddaughters.
Amazing. She sorta said the same thing that Michelle Obama said at the picture unveiling a few days ago. The sign of a fair system is the ability of the poor or disenfranchised to become leadership... not the same old faces and groups.
Glad we are giving them arms. They deserve them.
So she admitted that the USA is not a fair system
@@llothar68 The toxic politics, money and electoral college system in the US is pretty bad and should e reformed. But, it is a hell of a lot better than what is happening in places like Russia, North Korea, Iran... right now. They can't be easily reformed and really need to be overthrown.
Democracy: rule of law, human rights for all, including minority groups of all kinds. This is the sign of true civilization.
@@roqsteady5290 why is this turning into a shitshow about US politics? Where would Ukraine be were it not for the US shitshow? Yes, the shitshow is about the buddy system and same ol same ol in the Whitehouse. However…look into the world around you…there aren’t many doing any better than the US in taking care of their country and people. Maybe you need a few years to live in east Europe or take your pick of an African country or maybe China or North Korea or heaven forbid some Middle East or problems in Mexico or Philippines or Thailand or I can go on and on. Yes…US politics is in a bad way. When out of a huge population you can’t do better than a Clinton 🤢 Trump or an old fossil to run for president! Yes…something is wrong. They are all corrupted before going into politics.
@@llothar68 asinine post my friend.
Fear is a weapon

SOLIDARITY the power

SUPPORT UKRAINE🧡💙🧡💙
This interview clearly shows the stark differences between Russia and Ukraine. Ukraine, more European and aspirational. Russia, repressed and still inward looking.
Of the Russians and Ukrainians I've spoken with over the past 2 years, I did not hear talk of aspiration, personal development or future possibilities among Russians. But for Ukrainians, personal growth, dreams of a bright future and a spirit of entrepreneurialism have all been common themes. Ukraine is very deserving of our collective support.
And Ms. Mendel's story offers additional justification for this statement.
Yes! I have hosted Ukrainians, but they turn around and take care of me! They are people with values, versus the nihilism of Russian leadership.
Have you seen what Ukraine looks like? It's a pile of shit, like America is. The wealth disparity is noticeable.
I think you are absolutely right. The Russian people I've seen through this period seem to be apolitical. While the Russians who most benefit from the Russian economy live in Moscow or central Russian, support for Putin seems to run throughout the country. They believe the propaganda and support whatever the government chooses to do. This is a country with vast natural resources. Resources the world needs. There should be no reason for massive unemployment and destitute people in the far reaches of the country. I believe allegations that there is widespread corruption where those in control at each level take what they can. It could be that the government squashes political dissent but I do not think that is it entirely. It is rather like what is conveyed in the book "1984". Overwhelming propaganda and repressed thought to such an extent that people no longer think on their own. I don't know how Ukraine became different that Russia but it clearly is. Just listen to the people who managed to stick it out in or near their homes during the occupation. There is a difference.
I have also met Russians with an international mindset and personal aspirations, so I personally do not recognize your characterization. I do think Russia will only change if a bigger group decides to be civilly courageous and I really hope that happens. But seeing how dangerous that is, it might not happen soon 😕
@@Snowshowslow "I have also met Russians with an international mindset and personal aspirations" - they're leaving, as they should. Russia won't have many left after the war is over.
Iuliia, you give a beautiful face to Ukranian hope. The prayers and love of a supportive world embrace you and all Ukranians🇺🇦
Iulilia intelligence equals her affable smile.
What an impressive woman!! And English isn't even her first language. And there are many more intelligent, brave, determined peace loving people in Ukraine. Slava Ukraini
Her English sounds like she attended a university in the States. But she went to school in Ukraine, where she studied, among other subjects, English and philology (didn't know that was still a subject; thought it was replaced by linguistics).
Lots of people in Europe continental speaks more then one language at least nothing special..
I believe there are also many intelligent, brave… peace loving people in Russia as well.
Unfortunately most of them are in jail, under surveillance or similar.
Even worse, many are brain washed by Putins media dominance etc… knowledge is power etc etc.
Hopefully their voices and brains will be allowed to be free soon, Putin won’t last long after that… I hope.
When you have people like Ms. Mendel, you have reason to believe anything is possible. It speaks well of Zelensky too, to hire her as press secretary. I think she is a person who will make a difference.
Zele hired Ms.Mendel as a useful pretty backup for his wife, but she proved totally useless as a press secretary and he fired her without any pity.

She's a very well spoken young lady.
I can easily see why she was chosen to be pressed secretary.
Great interview. 👍
Indeed.
she's gorgeous too.
@@brettsommer 🤣🤣🤣👍
Walter Isaacson always has great interviews.
"Accountability is the only way forward." The US surely could learn something from that woman.
Accountability only happens if the people demand it. When a politician is caught in lies, dirty dealings, and scandals over and over, yet people continue to support that person because of the abbreviation (Dem./Rep.) next to their name on the ballot, corruption is what we get. If politicians were truly afraid of getting caught behaving so badly, they would stop. Right now they know it makes no difference.
lulz...you ever try holding a woman accountable for her actions? 🤣
Ukraine has shown the world that they are people who are passionate about their country and democracy.
Americans could take a lesson from this.
What about having the reputation of being the most corrupt nation in Europe?
@@ttrons2 Based on military performance, it would appear that Russia is a bit more corrupt than Ukraine.
@@ttrons2 Corruption is a worldwide problem of course, but you want to see corruption? Russia is like a gas station run by organized criminals all the way to the top level! And under what kind of system do you think there is a better chance to defeat corruption? Autocracy? Oligarchy? Of course not. How can you fight corruption in a country where calling a war a war gets you put in jail by those in power. Really can't see your point here.
@@ttrons2
Russias corruption is second to none , just look at the Russian army , but you were referring to Ukraine , right?
So,
Ukraine was the poorest country in Europe , having the lowest GDP per -capita and was well known for huge problems with corruption .
The last openly pro - Russian president of Ukraine was ousted out in 2014 after the Revolution of Dignity took place and Lukashenko escape to Russia with $32 billions in cash of Ukrainian government money stashed in trucks crossing border to Russia before his escape.
During his stay in office Lukashenko embezzled $ 100 billions from the coffers of Ukrainian government.
That amount equal to half of Ukrainian economic output in 2013.
The money went to Western European :/ US banks , as well east - to Russia.
Lukashenko was convicted in absentia of fraud, embezzlement, murder ( he gave an order to shot at protester , people died ) and treason.
He is living in Russia supporting financially Russian - separatists in Donbas since Russia invaded those Ukrainian regions in 2014 .
That’s a very short story of Ukrainian corruption.
The country of Ukraine and it’s people need a free, sovereign country without Russian control /interference .
That would be beneficial not only to Ukraine itself , but to all of Europe and all of free, democratic world.
After Ukraine wins and gets rid of Russia, Ukraine is going to be the hottest tourist destination in the world. Well done Ukraine!
Yeah especially zaporizha
ukrain will be broke like the rest of europe. ukrain will drown in dept caus the weapons we gave them are not for free.
Yes I cannot wait to go there this country I love more than any! I will kiss the ground when I get there!
Social media technology is playing an important role in your terrible war. Hopefully, people's minds will be open and against authoritarian regimes.
Nope. Look at China. They'll just censor certain words and lower your social credit score or change your covid status to red to restrict you to indoor living.
The evil regime USA M.I.C yes about time you Yank's see yourselves as others see you.
A very well spoken, intelligent young lady, very impressed as well as all of the peace and loving people of Ukraine. Slava Ukraini, cheers from USA.
You are watching propaganda do you even know what this is about?
Go away ruZZia troll
Liberty and independence vs a fascist imperialist kremlin wanting to enslave and exploit others
She did an excellent job of addressing some of the questions that I had for quite some time but had never really heard anyone speak to as clearly as she just did. There's a reason why she won the competition
Ukraine is in such good hands. These young people are the leaders! I am in awe watching this interview
Yeah, it is under such good hands! It will end up being eaten by Russia, and the parts that Russia may now want, will be forever in debt with the American vultures and the European cleaners!
What a brilliant administration! HA!
you are deluded,what do you know of the Ukrainian leaders?
I've noticed that aswell. All the Ukrainian leaders are really young and the Russians much older.
As a result the Ukrainians are looking forward and the Russians looking back to the past
Iuliia has a PhD in Ukrainian Philology, Master in English Language, Ukrainian Language and Literature, and a minor in Polish. She has written for The New York Times , been Foreign Correspondent on Ukrainian TV, and a Consultant to the World Bank.
wonderful woman, amazing insights from a ukranian

The Ukrainians embrace democracy with such enthusiasm.It is so impressive and refreshing to see.
I wish I could be there to hug all those brave, resilient soldiers.
America loves you Ukraine!!
Watching from the state of Rhode Island in the U.S.-it is really touching to learn of Miss Mendel's story as an example of the roots of a free and principled democratic society taking hold-the whole free world supports you Ukraine-keep kicking Russian A$$.
It's a forgotten trait in your country nowadays. I am sorry to say though. Vote blue.
Maybe this can help to see why USA started war in Ukraine:
For America the chief geopolitical prize is Russia

And remains focused without being partisan. She is well spoken.
Yea, he was trying his best to get her to answer in a way to put President Trump in a bad light.
@@chrisphillips408 she didn’t succumb to his political motive to make Trump look bad. He failed!
She doesn’t have to put out much effort, Trump does a good job of that on his own.

When you have people of this articulation and presence, you will win.
It is so satisfying to see collaborators have things go terribly for them so quickly. I hope the Russian collaborators in occupied areas spend the rest of their lives in a dreary, scary 1990s-esque Russia, knowing that they threw away a much better life in Ukraine, as well as their integrity, for an occupation that lasted a few months.

Every last one of them have two choices. They can go live in Russia or can stay in Ukraine where they will be hunted down and punished severely for collaborating with Russia.

Russia should be held responsible for the cost of rebuilding all the infrastructure it destroyed!!
Take the gas fields east of Ukraine to pay for reconstruction.
Then give it back under supervision so that profit goes to russian education without hero worship propaganda for a new dictator
You are right Putler must be held accountable for all of his and his military's and government's war crimes.
the Russian’s destroyed her grandmother’s home -but also her garden. I love this culture.

Wow!..what a wonderful woman Mendel is, highly intelligent, if she symbolises the new Ukraine then Russia needs to learn an important lesson from Ukraine… which is …..give power back to the people and stop trying to run Russian via a despotic dictatorship.
What an incredible woman
Wow, just wow, we need them in charge of Europe after Ukraine is won back.
true
She's not only smart, but she's as cute as can be.
She's right there's no such "forgive and forget" in war or even at the negotiating table, so much horrible things has happened already, loss of thousands of lives particularly!
Definitely the Jen Psaki of Ukraine, on point and focused.
Jen is a poo faced liar
This girl is smart and likable
She is an educated woman, and she knows history very well. slava ukrainia
It says a lot when 18 district leaders formerly speak out and demand Putin's resignation.
Such an impressive speaker for Ukraine. This is reflective of Zelinsky and the culture of that country, and the contrast to Russia, who's leadership is oppressive, dark and confused about which century they are in.
I didn’t know she wrote a book - and in English! This young lady is very smart, and in a wonderful position to tell quite a story. I look forward to her home region of Kherson being liberated. I will buy her book and read it. Slava Ukraïni!

BIG RESPECT TO UKAINIAN SOLDIERS!!!!!
Seeing the truth and acknowledging and observing it are two different situations.
there is an active insurgency going on in the rear of the russians in ukraine. i wish we could know more about that.
A very good interview and very valuable information! Both the interviewer and the interviewee were excellent!
Like so many other Ukrainians , She is a very intelligent and impressive woman . I love the country of Ukraine and I love Ukrainians . All Ukrainians speak with one voice ! Zelensky goes to the front lines and shakes hands with the troops ! All these actions are that of a civilized freedom loving country ! Such a breath of fresh air , much different then that of Russia !
Putin sits in his bunker and meets military people at the end of a 30' table . Putin would never go to the front lines and meet with troops, He would be too frightened that they would kill him !
No negotiations can take place with Putin while As long as Russian troops are in side the border of Ukraine Post
February 24 at the least . And everyone needs to be perfectly clear that Putin cannot be trusted or believed . Every precaution for future protection of Ukraine must be taken and agreed to. Most importantly Russia needs to be held toTerms of Reparations !
Rightly or wrongly, listening to her speak, it’s clear to me now that Ukraine looks to the USA as the USA looks to France: A lifeline for freedom
Sounds like a comment I would have made :D
Cept for the good punctuation.
Don't think the USA has looked to France much since the War of Independence in the 1700's.
@@coreyham3753 that’s what I was referencing. 😉

Great interview, thank you.
his catch phrase should be...."this is no joke"
I've been saying the same thing for weeks now, being polite as Putin has been does not win you wars. The cause was noble at the beginning of the special operation but since the collective West have all but taken over the conflict i8nto an all-out war against Russia and if Putin does not open his eyes, he will be eliminated or at the very best replaced.
For a man that felt repulsion for Gorbachev it seems to me he's following on his footsteps with his ideas of "let's all get along and I can convince my enemies to change their behavior". Didn't work for the former and it won't work for him.
It's beyond me as to why he hasn't pulverized Kiev, as I also have said "Cut the head of the snake and the body will wither but will not bite you". Stalin would've done it long ago.
If he continues to pussyfoot around and push his ideological bullshit, they will lose it all if there is an economic downturn that goes against them.
The time to get ahead is when you are ahead and as we can see from what is happening in the battlefield, is that complacency is the enemy of victory.
"It's beyond me as to why he hasn't pulverized Kyiv." If he could have he would have.
Spoken like a true fascist.
