April 29 is the anniversary of the proclamation of the Ukrainian state by Hetman Pavlo Skoropadsky. It was on this day that an event dedicated to the figure of the Hetman was held with the assistance of UICRI.
UICRI organized a roundtable discussion at the National Academy of Culture and Arts Leadership, located on the territory of the Kyiv Cave Monastery, and invited historians, political scientists, military officers, and cultural figures.
Among the guests of the round table:
- Mykhailo Shevchenko, Director of UICRI;
- Volodymyr Nakonechnyi, UICRI expert, associate professor of the Department of International Relations at Kyiv National University of Culture and Arts;
- Vitaliy Khromets, UICRI expert, Doctor of Philosophy;
- Konstantin Kolesnikov, UICRI expert, Doctor of Historical Sciences, officer
- Serhiy Lytvyn, Doctor of Historical Sciences, Professor of the Department of Creative Cultural Industries at NACCIM;
- Serhiy Chaplygin, philosopher, historian of religion, and other respected experts.
The roundtable discussed the relevance of Skoropadskyi’s figure and the prospects for conservatism in Ukrainian state-building. Tradition, stability, and established values are the key principles of conservatives that can help protect what has been built up over the years. These were the principles that guided Pavlo Skoropadskyi in creating the Ukrainian state.
We sincerely thank everyone who contributed by supporting the relevant topic!
