In his speech at the Konrad Adenauer Foundation in Berlin, Petro Poroshenko presented a plan for the joint victory of Ukraine and the free world over the Russian Federation.
Leaders of the German Christian Democratic union, the International Democratic Union, and members of the European Parliament took part in the discussion.
Petro Poroshenko stated that Putin will not stop in Ukraine and, in case of Russia’s victory, will go to war against the countries of the European Union.
‘My main message today to the partners in Berlin: if Putin takes Ukraine, he will never stop. He is like a maniac who returns to the scene of the crime. Or as a vampire who has already tasted blood,’ Poroshenko stressed.
The plan of the former president of Ukraine includes several key points. The allies should support Ukraine as long as it takes and introduce new, even more powerful sanctions. Ukraine also needs financial support.
Another key point is Ukraine’s membership in the NATO and the European Union. Petro Poroshenko also stressed the importance of the democracy in Ukraine and counteracting corruption.
In my previous column, I wrote about social innovations in Ukraine. Those innovations are part of civic resilience and the democratization of security, which Europe is paying close attention to right now.

It is looking for concrete ways to bring ordinary people into the work of defense and resistance.

In 2025, the deadliest year yet for civilians, Ukraine’s three largest charitable foundations raised a record 105.9 billion hryvnias. It is more than the years 2022–2024 combined. According to the UN, humanitarian aid in Ukraine was delivered by more than 450 organisations, reaching five million people over the course of the year. Civic foundations hold licences to purchase lethal weapons, which is a function states have monopolised for centuries. These record sums were underwritten by international government grants, which means foreign states now channel billions directly through Ukrainian civic funds, bypassing inter-state channels. It is hard to imagine a stronger institutional trust in civil society.
During the GLOBSEC Defence Forum 2026 in Prague, representatives of “Steel Front”, an initiative by Rinat Akhmetov, discussed with NATO delegations, military officials, and representatives of the European defense industry the lessons learned from Russia’s full-scale war against Ukraine.
