Maidan and people power is what I would like to dedicate my speech to at the world-famous TED conference on April 23 in Sao Paulo, Brazil, to be open this year by the legendary soccer star, Pele.
Maidan: revolution or evolution?
On Maidan we defended that which for us is the most precious: life, future, dignity, the right to choose.
We wanted to change our lives for the better, to give our country a future and ourselves – a chance for personal growth.
We want to be happy in Ukraine and not have to seek a better life abroad.
So, what happened on Maidan: Revolution or Evolution?
We definitely want to build, not destroy.
Maidan is what life itself is built on: mutual understanding, solidarity, the desire to hear and help one another, giving everything to a fellow human being, giving all to the country without expecting anything in return, the desire to be together!
Maidan prayed in all languages and all religions.
We are all different, but united by one idea: Ukraine!
Maidan, to me, will always remain a sea of Freedom Lights.
