Ukraine's English-language newspaper has not published in print since the late Adnan Kivan killed it on Nov. 8, 2021. His decision gave birth to the Kyiv Independent.
Read The Kyiv Post when I was in Ukraine. Have subscribed to the Kyiv Independent. Zelensky appears to be Churchillian in that he has amazing leadership talents and is dispicable in other respects.
This was like a trip down memory lane. I have so many fond memories of the Kyiv Post. I arrived in Kyiv in August 2010 and it was a weekly ritual to track one down - O'Brien's and Naturlih were always good bets, and for a while they were delivered to the British Council in Podil where I worked. I also bought a few copies over the years, I felt bad about taking them for free.
I also feel bad, in retrospect, for bringing in articles and having my students look for errors in article (sorry!). It was a great learning resource, and I promise I didn't make a habit of this! Typical English teacher I am, bringing in what we call realia for our students. Shame on me...
I still have a few issues and cut out articles I go back to.

It was so sad when it all ended.
Brian, I love the statement about your “principledness!”
