Putin’s War on the 2024 Olympics with Roman Sheremeta

The Olympic Games are an important moment for the world. Millions of fans watch as the best and brightest athletes from countries around the world come together to compete against each other, with the ultimate goal of cultivating excellence, respect and friendship through sport.

So the question arrises, what do you do when warlike aggressor countries actively involved in wars of conquest seek to participate in a world event based on peaceful interaction between nations?

When Ukrainian cities and towns are being leveled in the name of the Russian Federation, and tens of thousands are falling in the largest war in Europe since World War Two, how do we uphold the Olympic spirit and its values which have been a defining part of peaceful global relations.

On this episode of Ukraine Story Podcast we look at these questions as we speak with Professor Roman Sheremeta, an internationally known speaker, chairman of the Ukrainian American House, and the founding rector of the American University Kyiv.
