Ukraine’s Jewish Leader, Israel’s Ambivalence, and Chabad’s Presence amid the Crisis
“I need ammunition, not a ride.”
In evaluating the unfolding war in Ukraine, Nathan Guttman sheds light on the role of Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelensky, whom Guttman describes as “the most admired Jewish leader the world has to offer right now.” He also examines the meaning of the Russian president Vladimir Putin’s attempt to “play the Nazi card” in announcing his decision to invade Ukraine; Israel’s attempt to take a neutral stance in the conflict; and Chabad’s extraordinary leadership in Ukraine’s Jewish communities.
