  • Concerned about the war Ukraine? You're not alone. Historian Yuval Noah Harari provides important context on the Russian invasion, including Ukraine's long history of resistance, the specter of nuclear war and his view of why, even if Putin wins all the military battles, he's already lost the war.

      I was born in Europe before the end of WW2. As a child, I saw bombed out buildings reduced to rubble. I am thinking of my parents now, who lived through it and how it changed their lives. I remember rationing books-you could only buy a certain amount of dairy products, butter, etc. Yes, deep traumas come from these upheavals and last for generations. ☮️

    As a Kurdish man from Iran, i was born right in the starting point of the 8 years of war between Iran and Iraq 40 yars ago. Let me clarify what the war is:
    Some rich politicians who know eachother very well, sitting in their comfortable palaces, dream of their ambitions, force young soldiers who even don't know eachother to kill eachother.
    And finally after a while they again shake their hands and have a nice meal together in front of cameras while parents of young soldiers still suffering from their absence.

    Mr. Harari is interviewed in this video. He speaks to champion democracy (Ukraine) and decry tyranny/authoritarianism (Russia). However, I have ALSO listened and watched Mr. Harari speaking to the WEF (World Economic Forum) and serving as an advisor to Klaus Schwab who is the president of WEF. When Mr. Harari is speaking in his capacity as a member of the WEF, he strongly supports tyranny/authoritarianism as personified by the WEF elites (perched at the top of humanity) rather than democratic nations (whom he must see as the serfs of the world who will own nothing and be happy). So my question to Mr. Harari is: Who is the real Yuval Noah Harari...the man speaking in this interview with TED? or the one speaking to the WEF at their annual meetings? I would like to know please.

      I am born in the 80s and generally we don’t see our peers in Germany like that. But we blame a lot of the older generations for the continued racism and xenophobia and religious extremism that exist today. I think younger generations realize we are not so different. Unfortunately Putin and his older supporters have sold out the younger generations for some fantasy of the USSR one that no younger person in Russia wants or dreams of rather they wanted to be proud of being Russian while being considered European and hold many of the same values and wanting to be able to look forward to living standards and lives parallel to their western counterparts. Unfortunately that will be the complete opposite of that and they should blame their elders.

      However, it is difficult to say the same in a former Soviet Republic, such as Kazakhstan, when we see the type of dependence such as recent events have demonstrated.
      I would not say the same about all or even most of the former republics btw.

President Zelensky sending a message to the world staying in Kyiv to defend his country, despite assasins send to take his life, and on the other side Putin, far away from the war zone, sitting distanced even from his closest advisors on his long table is exactly the difference between leading from withing, inspiring people with taking action, and leading with fear and retaliation.

    On February 24, life was divided into before and after. I do not want this war, I do not want the destroyed cities of Ukraine, I do not want people killed, I do not want poverty and the fall of the economy in Russia.
    We, as a country, have fallen into a hole on the road to Evolution. It's scary and painful for me to realize this.

It might have been a cruel act in history but I'm happy that I was born in Finland and not in Russia. When germany stated that they will increase their military I felt a sense of increased security because I have always lived in a small sense of fear what the Russian leadership will do next(since I was a child the russian military has reminded us that they are there by flying military planes into our airspace or something similar, thus reminding our people that "fear us"). I do know that most of the russian people do not agree with their leadership atleast the ones I know but they don't seem to be able to gain any power without getting in worst cases killed. Everything my grandparents told me about Russia has proven to be true, so I have never blamed german people for what happened same as I have never blamed the russian people. We just need to create a world were the few in power can ruin everyone elses lives, yes we need someone to lead but the voices of the people should always be stronger than the voice of a small group :D But germans could start to speak english in games, like eng ain't my mothertongue either but...

      Then the victors of a war writes the history and the propaganda was massive. Was the outcome really the best possible for the humans and did the outcome save lives, I don't know but it made "peace". I only know it saved a lot of jews and killed a lot of eastern europeans. From what I have seen from the victors of WW2 I sometimes think "Would the world have been a better place if the other side would have won". USA is bullying every country with fossile fuels(when norway found oil the first joke was "Soon USA will find weapons of mass destruction in Norway", Russia keeps "I don't know what to call it", China is what it is, UK sits like a little kid behind daddy's(USA) back and fcks everyone off. Europe excluding UK tried to better itself, Japan is more conserned about the next bright color in pokemon than wars. All the loosing parts became better while the victors only becomes worse and worse. Russia could have become a great nation, communism is one of the best government types if the ones in charge would follow the rules. USA are lost, its ruled by capitalism and everything is about money and 1 being better than the other person. USA makes life into a competition spreading their "¤%#¤" everywhere when we should try to find a way together. Europe has a chance if we just focus on following the rules we set up in EU(I know Finland follows em like word for word while some just see em as guidelines that you can follow if you want). So my point is that Germans has nothing to be ashamed of cause they have improved while the ones still running the WW2 propaganda only managed to become worse.

My russian was very poor (though I stayed two years in Israel ;-)) but we fell in love and married and have a great boy. If some had told me in 1990 before the German reunification I had told him or her you are absolutely insane. Me wife and me, both raised in the cold war, I in west Germany and she in the Soviet Union. We even had problems to marry because Germany didn't accept her papers but we managed to get the contract. Since then we go through life together. I visited several times my parents in law that are the best parents in law you can think of. My family is as well a proof that families with very different history and background can peacefully come together. Ok my wife and me we had also some trouble and different opinions about how way of life should be. But we always managed to sort it out. Our family is not a fantasy. It was created on the end of cold war between the super powers and we will defend it and we support in every way the Ukranian people with their great and heroic brave fight. Gospadin Putin: You have already lost the war, be so brave to accept it. We don't want to fight against Russia but if you don't stop we must.

      People can overcome it even without visiting Yat Vashem. But by visiting it, you'd probably upset people with less cordial relations with Israel, and who also can tell their side of the story. The whole Palestinian-Israeli conflict. And yes, the Israeli's also can tell other stories than those about WW 2: 1967, 1974, Olympic Games of München etc. The past always will cast a shadow on the future. See how Putin goes back to the 9th century to try to make his arguments stick. It is as if Italy all of a sudden would start making claims on parts of Belgium "because it once belonged to the Roman empire". And what about the poor black tribes in South Africa, that were chased away by the Zulu's, who in turn were dominated for decades by the Whites, who in turn were replaced by the ANC... Who started out with a promising future... But who led the country to complete chaos, anarchy, corruption and kleptocracy ?

      I agree with 112deeps that the difference is not healthcare. The US actually spends a huge proportion of GDP on healthcare although it is in the private sector. I guess (but have not checked) that the higher spending compared with the US would be social benefits or perhaps infrastructure. Whatever the cause, Europe and the UK will have to make some difficult choices. Harari is not criticising Germany for raising defence spending - he says it is reasonable - but it is tragic that the invasion will push countries into a logical but negative increase in spending. A relatively peaceful world and productive use of resources benefits from a stable international system based on law, rather than on a world governed by power relations alone, which means that only military strength counts.

Saying that "Kyiv was a major metropolis and cultural center when Moscow was not even a village," while true, is EXTREMELY REDUCTIVE. Russia and Ukraine, as well as Belarus, share a common ancestry in Kievan Rus, which was a loose federation of medieval city-states with its capital in Kyiv. But in the 13th century, the area which became Russia was conquered by the Mongol Golden Horde, while western portions later fell to the Polish-Lithuanian Empire. From there, three separate languages and national identities evolved. We were the same people. I am Russian, and I hate what Putin is doing to my brothers and sisters in Ukraine, but you can't make reductive arguments for the sake of a jab.

The situation is exactly as described: there are many victims and half of them are civilians, the destruction of cities and villages is terrible. Some of the towns and villages simply do not exist anymore. Hatred of Russians makes it difficult to think, live and breathe. This state is not for years. It will spread through generations.

    Hello! I really love what you do and lots of my friends from Russia read Yuval’s books. But not many of Russians speak English and they’re struggling to understand this conversation.
    Please, add Russian subtitles to this video! We should give Russians an opportunity to see the truth. Especially when all independent media have closed.
    We can help with translation on Russian, but please let’s give Russian people more information!
    Thank you.

      Do you believe Russian people will be effected by Yuval Noah Harari? If so do you believe the people around putin and his oligarchs will hear and understand Yuval Noah Harari and be positively effected and feel the same? If so release this video in Russian language.

      Doesn't this man work for Klauss Schwab? The guy who says you will own nothing and be happy. This man Yuval endorses "hacking" humans and reducing humanity to cyborgs aka an advocate for Transhumanism. 🤔

      I think what he was trying to say was not to forget history, that doesn't make sense. He was intending to say not to keep grudges, not to dwell on resentment about events in the past. You are right that studying history should lead to a better understanding of what not to do and many cautionary tales.
