Exclusive interview with Professor Timothy Snyder, historian | Ukraine: The Latest

So few can use words like Professor Snyder: to explain without aggression, to make his ideas easily understandable and very interesting! No wonder his Yale classes on Ukraine are so popular! I have watched all of them and was mesmerized…students that were able to take his classes are very lucky!

It is always such a pleasure to listen to Professor Timothy Snider! Good job! Slava Ukraine! UA!

This guy is an absolute legend! Thanks so much for having him on!

Brilliant analysis by Snyder. His "Bloodlands" is a must read to understand the regional background. We must not betray Ukraine and support the fight against Russia.

This is the reason I tune into the “Telegraph” each and every day! Highest quality journalism combined with highest quality guests! 🇺🇦✌️

This man is absolutely brilliant. His scholarship is not only impeccable, but his analysis of what he has found over the years is instructive both as examples of clear, soritical conclusions as well as in exposing how our misinterpretation of history--whether willful or ignorant--gets in the way of recognizing our biases in creating narratives that we swear are right when they are not. His point about the geographic location of the Amazons being on the Black Sea in the Scythian region changes the preconception of them being "Greek." That accurate geographic citation, as well as others tying the shores of the Black Sea to the "cradle" of western civilization lets us know that our history is more complex than what we learned in our "Weekly Readers" back in the day.

One of the best interviews of a working historian and Snyder ever. Pulled the thread on the intellectual history of Ukraine. WOW, great job. Computer Scientist from Florida

39:26 “He did something with me that I’ve never seen another politician do. He talked to me about what I wanted to talk about “ ❤️💙

Always a pleasure listening to Dr. Timothy Snyder. Thanks for the history lessons and viewpoints and the Q and A.

I'm only 10minutes in and already this is one of the best Podcasts of the whole series, this Professor Snyder is a beast!

Your guest Timothy Snyder is excellent in his analysis. What a smart guy. And it was smart of the Telegraph to put him on. Well done. Slava Ukraini!

A fantastic episode! Дякую!

Gem, gem, gems like gravel on a road. Brilliant perspectives and insight.

I love listening to Timothy Snyder talk on Ukraine and slavic countries. I watched all of his Yale Ukraine/Russia classes on Youtube and have seen him talk many other times. I listen to Ukraine the latest daily i believe. Always smart talks, topics, guests and hosts. Slava Ukraini

Always very interesting to listen to Dr Snyder. I read his book, Bloodlands, some time ago. I found it almost unbelievable to be honest. Many things of which I cannot really conceive happened mere three or four decades before I was born.

A profound combination of thinkers, observers, writers and reader. I'm going to wait 24 hours and listen again. I've been tuned into Professor Synder since before the war, he was on my Twitter feed, I try to catch anything on YouTube. Before Trump's "perfect phone call" Ukraine was unknown to me; the USSR was lumped together. I'm looking forward to the new book. But more than that, I am trying to figure out how to fight for democracy here in the US.

Thanks to the Telegrah for these podcasts. An immense service in educating the public

One of the best interviews ever. Dr. Snyder is intelligent and not full of it. I have fond memories of my late wife playing the carillon in HarknessTower at Yale.

Timothy Snyder is a gift to the rest of us...

Excellent interview. 😊
