In Russia, many are waiting for an opportunity to put on an embroidered shirt and shout: “Glory to Ukraine”/Channel 24
Russia was not invited to Davos, but the Russian House of War Crimes was opened, and Ukraine was in the spotlight. Columnists: Biden wrote an article about Zelensky, and Navalny about Putin. How the post-war order of the world is taking shape.
The war continues on the territory of Ukraine, and the world has already begun to form a post-war order. And it, this world order will be radically different from the one that was before February 24, 2022.
Davos without Russia
The image of this post-war world order was presented at the World Economic Forum in Davos, where for the first time the forum was held without Russia. For the first time in 35 years after the USSR sent its delegation to this forum for the first time in 1987. Russia did not refuse – they simply did not invite her.
However, one cannot say that Davos did not smell of the Russian spirit. It also smelt like it was right up your nose. The Russian House of War Crimes was opened in the premises of the traditional Russian House in Davos for the duration of the summit. An exposition of almost 5,000 photographs and corresponding video frames show the guests of the forum the crimes of Putin's fascism.
The war in Ukraine is the main topic of the forum. Ukraine was not much, but very much. Here are just some of the points of the “Ukrainian Davos”:
- Special address of the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky;
- Session Spirit of Fortitude: Ukrainian voices (among the speakers are First Deputy Prime Minister – Minister of Economy Yulia Sviridenko, MP Yevheniya Kravchuk, CEO of Smart Holding Yulia Kiryanova and representative of Kyiv Hub Uliana Avtonomova);
- Discussion with brothers Klitschko, and a separate session of Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko, where the Kyiv mayor will additionally discuss plans for the restoration of Kyiv and the necessary assistance for this;
- Session on the response to the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine
- Communication of participants Davos 2022 with Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Dmytro Kuleba;
- Discussion at the Ukrainian House on Ukraine's European prospects and a $1 trillion reconstruction program for the country.
The “Marshall Plan” for Ukraine
Davos 2022 could be another starting point” Marshall Plan for Ukraine. The Financial Times has included the issue of Ukraine's post-war reconstruction in its top 5 most important topics to follow at the Davos Forum 2022. Ukraine now estimates the cost of rebuilding the economy and infrastructure at $600 billion.
On the eve of its opening, World Economic Forum President Berge Brende confirmed that he was in favor of creating such a “Marshall Plan” for Ukraine.
Even without a peace agreement, which is currently unlikely, we should begin work on reconstruction – at least in areas that are under the control of Ukraine. We need a “Marshall Plan,” Brende said.
And one more little touch to the outlines of the post-war world:
How Biden and Navalny staged a literary competition.
It was like this. Time magazine included the presidents of Russia and Ukraine Vladimir Putin and Vladimir Zelensky in the list of the most influential people of 2022. The text about Putin was written by Alexei Navalny, and about Zelensky by Joe Biden.
In my opinion, Navalny won this contest of political portraits by a slight margin. Biden was concise, his text was half as long, which is a plus.

According to the ghouls, this is a turning point in the war and now Ukraine will falter and run to surrender. increasingly asks perplexed questions. In fact, it is quite possible that many of them understand everything and are simply waiting for an opportunity to hit the ground, put on an embroidered shirt and shout: “Glory to Ukraine!”.
