Ukrainian Renaissance - Roman Sheremeta - What Ukraine Needs to Win the War - and what comes after a Ukrainian Victory

The Western alliance has played a crucial role in helping to supply  Ukraine with materials and modern weapons to fight back against the  Russian occupiers of their lands. But without Ukrainian courage,  ingenuity, and stamina, those weapons would have counted for nothing. In  the light of Zelensky’s trip to Ukraine, today we discuss what Ukraine  needs to win this war, and how Western support for Ukraine can be  sustained through the long, hard winter, and through the world economic  crisis. Roman Sheremeta is Professor of Economics at CWRU and Co-Chair at UA  House and Founding Member at the Global Ukraine Foundation. He holds a  Ph.D. in economics from Purdue University and is a recipient of research  and teaching awards, including the 2018 Smith Ascending Scholar Prize,  as well as grants, including the National Science Foundation and the Max  Planck Institute grants. Sheremeta was listed as a Top Economic Thinker  of Ukrainian descent by Forbes in 2015, a top-rated young economist in  the world according to the IDEAS ranking in 2018 and recognized as the  Best 40 Under 40 Professors by Poets and Quants. Since the invasion of  Ukraine, Sheremeta has been actively involved in delivering humanitarian  aid to Ukraine and working on initiatives to rebuild Ukraine.
