Kyiv, Mother of Cities

I had a very full day of talks, meetings, and public seminars and lectures yesterday. And another today. I’ve met quite an interesting circle of people in Kyiv who are very committed to keeping their society from collapsing, which is a serious fear, considering the state of both politics and the economy here. I’m off now to meet with a former Finance Minister and then a series of meetings and brainstorming sessions with Ukrainian classical liberals, capped by a public lecture and reception for the Mercurius Society and the Atlas Economic Research Foundation. (And I’ve met with various members of the Rada and other public figures, who have agreed to endorse the petition for free trade.)
