Phenomenal presentation. Most note worthy was that the Russian delegate proved Dr Snyder’s thesis. Simply wonderful.

Thank you, Professor Snyder.

You report that you said: "Speaking of history, the Russian representative denied that there was such a thing as the history of Ukraine. I would refer the Russian representative to excellent surveys by historians who know both Ukrainian and Russian, such as the recent work by my colleague Serhii Plokhii at Harvard. I would refer people in general to my open class on Ukrainian history at Yale, which I hope shares the significance of Ukrainian history more eloquently than I can here."

Thank you for including the link to your open class on Ukrainian history at Yale -- and for offering the class. Perhaps one day the Russian representative will be able to enter the open class and learn.
