It] gives Ukrainians a chance to explain their country themselves, and the Ukraine that emerges is uncannily relevant at a time when so many countries are undergoing identity crises-not least the United States."-Peter Pomerantsev, journalist, author, and TV producer, in The American Interest (January 2020)
