Treffen sich ein Vertreter des German Marshall Funds of the United States, drei (!?) von einer Soros Privatstiftung unterstützte pro ukrainische NGOs und ein Board Member einer ukrainischen Stiftung -- der aber gleichzeitig natürlich auch Co-founder and President der Ukrainian-Austrian Association ist - vor einem wohlwollenden Moderator -
nein - Moment der wohlwollende Moderator ist ja auch der Co-founder and President, Ukrainian-Austrian Association selbst -- also alles andere wäre ja auch Freunderlwirtschaft und so garnicht sexy/koscher…
Also treffen sich die in der diplomatischen Akademie Wien, um einen Hit nach dem anderen rauszuhauen.
Co-founder and President, Ukrainian-Austrian Association: “Thank you very much Yana maybe I should mention, that the ERSTE foundation is so clearly pro Ukraine -- eehh ahhh, that, eh, you have done, uuuuh, quite a few important projects in the past and I do hope that you will continue that…” addressed at Yana Barinova (European Policies and Ukrainian Relations, ERSTE Foundation; former Kyiv City Councillor for Culture)
Ideologie-Check BESTANDEN!
Was er uns darüber hinaus mit der Aussage mitteilen wollte? Ich hab keine Ahnung.
Co-founder and President, Ukrainian-Austrian Association: “I may just tell you and the audience, that there is a project, even in Austria, in Vienna - by the presidential office of Ukraine, to show the exhibition [of] Russian war crimes in Ukraine, at the University of Vienna. I [myself] have [had (die Besten der Besten)] the privilege to have innitiated such a project in austria, but the presidential office [of Ukraine] had to decide to prioritize this exhibition to go to New York, because they are fighting for every vote at the general assembly of the United Nations.”
Des ist jetzt aber keine Propaganda, oder? Des ist jetzt einfach eine informative Kunstausstellung mit dokumentarischem Charakter, die da auf Anleitung des presidential office of the Ukraine mal einfach ganz schnell von Wien nach New York musste, oder?
Des ist ja fast so toll wie die Kunstausstellungen die sonst nur die Viktor Pinchuck Foundation zustande bringt!
Yana Barinova (European Policies and Ukrainian Relations, ERSTE Foundation; former Kyiv City Councillor for Culture): “NGOs inside of themselves [sic!] they can shift their priorities, if they can be flexible, they can switch in between being a MEDIA [outlet], into [sic! to] learning how to document war crimes.” [Very flexible of those NGOs, I might add, of course all guarded and driven around by the ukrainian patrol police, I recon.]
WAIT! NGOs can both be media outlets and state accredited organs that document warcrimes? Thats amazing! Just dont forget to enter on you next job form, the usual ngojournaliststateaccreditedwarcrimeexpertandanalyst and if ever - someone asks you what that means, just tell them you were flexible.
Co-founder and President, Ukrainian-Austrian Association: “The media are playing a pivotal role in countering the russian narrative - which is everywhere. And thats not only a question of money, which is pluggend into the system subversively. This is the result of a strategy over maybe 10, 15, 20 years, when Putin came to power. So - some criticism, Ukraine in many aspects until some years ago was sleeping and did not counter the russian things, talking about culture! [Wait for it, waaaaiiiit for it!] Yeah? That russia is doing a cultural initiative, in order to spread the narrative, etc - so cultural ambassadors of russia, this was not countered by Ukraine for many years, they were just silent, its not only a question of money. And only with the Ukrainian Institute it started (TELL ME MORE!1!). And that has been maybe five, six, seven years ago, before that there was nothing.”
Nothing? Well thats probably because media is so important, but not nearly as important as the Ukrainian Institute, right? (*cough cough*)
Yana Barinova (European Policies and Ukrainian Relations, ERSTE Foundation; former Kyiv City Councillor for Culture): “Before that (The Ukrainian Institute I recon?) it was actually more fashionable to be a Russian pluralistic writer, than actually acknowledge that you are coming from a village in the northern part of Ukraine. [WRONG NARRATIVE, WRONG NARRATIVE!]
Iryna Khomiak Programme Manager, German Marshall Fund, Berlin): I observed this uh also talking with colleagues from other European foundations. First year it was the year of direct aid, urgent needs a direct aid on the borders but now we see that I hope the war will end rather sooner than later, but still it continues so what the strategy of European philanthropy should be -- what uh what we can Undertake and I think that the main thing it’s not to do for Ukraine but to do with Ukraine because definitely we don’t want to be passive recipient of of funds we want to be co-creator of uh important impactful uh programs so I identify a capacity building initiatives as the top priority uh for the next several years - why because we say restart Ukraine rebuild Ukraine bringing Ukraine European integration, but this is just words behind each of those words there are people and their capacities and their knowledge and their expertise what they can and well they can’t so I think the best thing what we can do to prepare people for such enormous undertaking as rebuild Ukraine to equip with knowledge to equip with networks to to equip with the best practices and this in a way means decolonization of European philanthropy what they mean it means that you help in order to leave at a certain point you help to grow the Ukrainian third sector you help Ukrainian ngos to strengthen its own capacity, because many big International foundations missions come to Ukraine and what happens they head hunt best minds of course uh many people choose working for international organizations, it’s prestigious it’s it’s security it’s good salary and then when mission of this organization finished and this organization leave the Ukraine it’s again tabularasa because there is no internal infrastructure that can continue to work so uh I would call all those partners who are open and keen to to help Ukraine to to do with Ukraine and to help to strenghten its own capacity and for each project to find implementing partners in Ukraine it’s absolutely another tactic how you cooperate with Ukraine from other side it’s a big homework for Ukrainian ngos because you should be transparent you should be accountable and you should know how to accompany international organization in their mission in Ukraine because to receive the grant it’s one thing but to report on this grant to measure deliverables and then to build long-term sustainable strategy it’s also different type of skill that require strategic planning visioning compliance with lots of international programs documents strategies and agendas.
Wait, this is not a grass root movement at all? This is all astroturfed by what “International foundations”?
Who do what “Philantropy”?
Because Philantropy is so hard, because - and I quote: “Because to receive the grant it’s one thing but to report on this grant to measure deliverables and then to build long-term sustainable strategy it’s also different type of skill that require strategic planning visioning compliance with lots of international programs documents strategies and agendas.”?
You know, for all the PHILANTROPY grants you received, right? [WRONG NARRATIVE, WRONG NARRATIVE!]
Iryna Khomiak Programme Manager, German Marshall Fund, Berlin): “Following the the needs of of the Civil Society on the ground we decided to emphasize and sort of reinforce the support um the um full-scale Invasion um to a certain extent um shifted the the Paradigm of uh of donor Civil Society relations so to say because at some point the donors community started responding to the needs of the Civil Society on the ground instead of dictating or shaping the Narrative per se, since the last late last March beginning of April last year we already supported around 200 projects inside of the country as I said on as local levels as possible because that’s where the resilience is taking place that’s where the recovery is taking place I’m not undermining or neglecting the role of the state level ngos and um and initiatives I’m just trying to focus on what I’ve been working with and also to sort of bring up this perspective.”
Oh, nothing, I - Iryna Khomiak Programme Manager, German Marshall Fund, Berlin, am just stating that the international donor community is shaping the narrative of ukrainian state level NGOs - which arent representative of the ukrainian people - thats all.
You know, because like the Erste Foundation representative before was saying, we dont have any ground level initiatives right now - at all, its all international NGOs working in the Ukraine, then leaving the country and leaving back, what was it again?! Ah, yes - tabularasa. Nothing. Absolutely nothing at all.
Let me get this straight, but when Jeffrey Sachs states the following:
It was a coup, of course. It was an unconstitutional seizure of power when very violent groups, well armed, stormed the government buildings in February, 2014. [Protesters, angered by Yanukovych’s rejection of a trade agreement with the European Union, were killed by security forces after trying to occupy parts of Kyiv; afterward, Yanukovych was isolated politically and fled to Russia with the assistance of the Kremlin. I asked Sachs over e-mail for a source for his claim about the role played by the U.S. He responded, “It is public knowledge that the National Endowment for Democracy and US NGOs spent heavily in Ukraine to support the Maidan. I have first-hand knowledge of that spending.” The N.E.D. told The New Yorker that it provides funding to civil-society groups but “does not provide funding to support protests.”]

Followed up by quote: “dont tell me that stuff!”.
He becomes persona non grata. Right? Right.
Its just the best democratic societies could muster up, but not before Sachs is actually fired from Project Syndicate of course, where he was the most published author before the russian Invasion of Ukraine.
Right.
Kurze Mitteilung an das Hurenwichserschwein von meiner ehemaligen Psychotherapeutin: Wenn ich vor etwas über einem Jahr irritiert bin, dass Soros in dem Umfeld gerade wieder drei Stiftungen agieren hat und der Standard außerdem wieder unkontextualisiert Statements vom ECFR (its just a think tank) von Project Syndicate als “so muss die österreichische Politik die Bevölkerung auf einen Langen Krieg vorbereiten” abschreibt (Project Syndicate has also received grants from George Soros’s Open Society Foundations, The Politiken Foundation in Denmark, Die Zeit, ZEIT-Stiftung, and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.[6]) und dass mich das dann irgendwie verrückt macht - trotz besseren Wissens an der Stelle nicht in die Verschwörungsecke wegzukippen -- das nächste Mal vielleicht was Besseres ausdenken als “ja und Elon Musk?” - ok? Supi.
Und kurze Mitteilung an das Arschlochwichserschwein von meiner ehemaligen Psychotherapeutin, wenn ich ihr in Monat drei des Krieges erzähle, WIE der German Marshallfund of the United States, die deutsche Haltung gegenüber dem Krieg kritisiert, und der gleichzeitig die einzige Quelle ist, von der ich Hintergrundinformationen über die “Zeitenwenderede” bekomme (so unwichtige Details wie, die Ränge wurden voll besetzt, damit das Klatschen besser wirkt, und vor der Rede kannten den Inhalt weniger als ein dutzend Personen), weil der german Marshall Fund of the United States darüber debrieft wird, aber die europäische Öffentlichkeit halt nicht -- dann das nächste Mal vielleicht mehr als einfach nur eine abwertende Handgeste von sich geben.
Nur so ein Gedanke.
Achja, und mir zuerst sagen, dass ich ihr erklären solle wie österreichische Aussenpolitik läuft - wegen dem Motivationsfaktor - und mich dafür dann aus der Betreuung treten, wenn ich es nicht mehr ertrage?
Ja, ja? Jederzeit!
Applause - for a job well done. Mögest du auch deine anderen 120 Patienten so perfekt betreuen, wie mich.
Scheiße, noch kein Dopaminpush, weil man wieder einem geholfen hat - und schon ein halbes Jahr vorbei?! Na dann ab zum nächsten Kandidaten!
Diese Gesellschaft ist das absolut grotesk Allerletzte.
Propaganda, hat aber wie immer noch niemand entdeckt.
edit: Please doubleckeck, maybe I’ve mixed up Yana and Iryna when attributing the quotes above. The moderator clearly called one person Yana, but their online photos look quite different. I’ve kept the names the moderator uses when referring to them.
edit2: Hilfreicher Kontext via fefe:
[l] Angst vor der Soros Foundation? Weil die immer Revolutionen anzettelt? Keine Sorge!
Der alte Mann hat die Stiftung seinem Sohn Alex übergeben, und der will erstmal 40% des Personals feuern. Außerdem:>Alexander Soros also said that under his leadership, he planned to focus the foundation more on US domestic politics.
Soviel dazu.
