Wij van BAK, basis voor actuele kunst, Utrecht veroordelen de brute militaire invasie van Oekraïne door Vladimir Poetin. We staan in solidariteit met allen die door deze oorlog aan onmenselijke omstandigheden worden onderworpen. Ook zijn we solidair met de anti-oorlogs en pro-democratiebewegingen in Rusland en Belarus, en met de strijd tegen het imperialisme overal ter wereld.

Maidan and (8 Years) After: State of the Ukrainian Left

Nina Potarska

For Prospections “Standing With Ukraine. Standing With the Oppressed,” feminist, social researcher, and peace activist Nina Potarska has kindly given us permission to republish her 2016 text “Maidan and After: State of the Ukrainian Left,” originally published in n+1 magazine 24, New Age (Winter 2016), which gives a socioeconomic context to the Maidan uprising and describes the author’s own involvement in the protests from a feminist position, demanding direct democracy and an end to corruption and (neo)oligarchic rule; and subsequently, her involvement in helping women impacted by the war in eastern Ukraine. The republication of this text is followed by a postscript by Potarska describing her recent years of peacebuilding activist and advocacy work as Ukraine’s national coordinator for the International Women’s League for Peace and Freedom, Kyiv. Yet today—one month after the full-scale Russian invasion and its fully raging war on Ukraine—the author is faced with an acute sense of grief regarding how to carry on.
