Elections in Ukraine can only take place once the war has ended. Until then, all state authorities are obliged to fulfil their constitutional functions. This was emphasised by Arseniy Yatsenyuk, Chairman of the Kyiv Security Forum and Prime Minister of Ukraine from 2014 to 2016, in an interview with Hromadske Radio on the programme ‘Beyond the Headlines’.

The rise in oil prices caused by the war in Iran has led to higher gas prices, which will, in turn, lead to price increases across the board, including food. This was stated by Arseniy Yatsenyuk, Chairman of the Kyiv Security Forum and Prime Minister of Ukraine from 2014 to 2016, in an interview with Hromadske Radio on the programme ‘Beyond the Headlines’.

The military campaign in Iran has begun dismantling the authoritarian axis targeting Western interests, and Ukraine's defence must be ensured regardless of developments in the Middle East. This was stated by the Director of the Kyiv Security Forum, diplomat Danylo Lubkivsky, on SLAWA TV.

Decisions on the purchase of critical energy equipment and its financing must be made no later than May 2026 – otherwise, the Ukrainian energy sector will not be ready for next winter, and millions of Ukrainians may once again be left without electricity and heating. This is stated in an appeal to the heads of government of the G7 and the European Union, published following the round table of the Kyiv Security Forum in conjunction with the Munich Security Conference – ‘Energy War: How to Disconnect Tyranny’, which took place on 14 February.

Putin is closely monitoring the disagreements between allies in order to take advantage of them. This was emphasised by the Chairman of the Kyiv Security Forum, Prime Minister of Ukraine in 2014-2016, Arseniy Yatsenyuk, on BBC News on the fourth anniversary of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
