WSJ Benoit, Norman and Fridler's account of the events of Feb. 20-21, 2014, leading to the EU brokered agreement in Ukraine

02/22/2014

The calls of chancellor Merkel to Putin and Yakunovych and the efforts of foreign ministers Steinmeier and Fabius of France, Sikorski of Poland, were crucial in getting both sides together for an agreement in Ukraine. This was the last opportunity to pull the country together as the use of Interior Ministry forces would have split the country and damaged the West's relations with Russia, which would have put all parties and countries in the region in a lose-lose situation.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
