Chicago Humanities Festival | Lessons from the Edge: A Conversation with Former US Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch @ChicagoHumanitiesFestival | Uploaded June 2022 | Updated October 2024, 21 hours ago.
Former Ambassador to Ukraine, Marie Yovanovitch, became a household name when she courageously testified during the Trump impeachment inquiry. In her memoir Lessons From the Edge, Yovanovitch claims her narrative on her own terms, reflecting on the arc of her fascinating life and courageous career in foreign policy and diplomacy. In the midst of a massive geopolitical shift, caused by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine (the largest war in Europe since 1945), there is no better person to share their hard-won wisdom than Yovanovitch, who sits down at CHF with Ivo Daalder, President of the Chicago Council on Global Affairs and former US ambassador to NATO.
