Olexander Scherba was a career Ukrainian diplomat whose most recent post as Ukrainian ambassador to Austria ended in 2021. He has spent a total of 28 years in service to Ukraine. He and Benjamin Wittes discuss the misalignment of different global actors in the anticipation of the war in Ukraine, his perspective on the U.S.-Ukraine relationship from the Ukrainian side, and what Scherba sees as an “organic” effort by Ukrainians to create a unified message about the nation of Ukraine during the Russian invasion.
