Ukraine-Brazil relations | Ukraine’s global partnerships #7

Are Ukraine and Brazil truly worlds apart, or can a common ground be found? Do they actually see peace differently? The reality is far more complex than just the statements issued by politicians in both countries. In this episode, we look at the heart of Ukraine-Brazil relations-their history, mutual willingness to learn more about one another, and what the future may hold.

Thank you, Anastasiia Herasymchuk, Ivan Fechko, and Caio Favaretto, for this very interesting conversation. A huge problem as to the perception in some countries of the world is that russia is mixed up with the USSR. Most conflate them and forget that the USSR comprised of many nations and its regime was not russian but f. ex. Georgian.
🇺🇦 Перемоги та миру всім українцям! 🇺🇦

This was an interesting discussion. It's unfortunate though that the speaker from Brazil wasn't corrected when he claimed twice that his country had 100 years of relations with Russia. It might be more correct to say that it's had roughly the same duration as Ukraine given that Ukraine was a major part of the Soviet Union, and that Russia proper didn't really exist as a state until its dissolution.
