Levytskyy calls this conference a positive first step towards consensus and calls on everyone to make it a reality online #UkraineResolution


Turning to Belgium example. Took time and protection of minorities: made state very complex, but "at least we had peace” #UkraineResolution


Beilin: But rational solutions need to take in account irrational aspects #UkraineResolution


Beilin: Solution will necessarily involve autonomous oblasts. Key issue: making Crimea part of the solution #UkraineResolution


Beilin: Solution has to come from both parties. Need to overcome mutual threats and look beyond subjective truths #UkraineResolution


“World sick and tired of us,” Beilin continues. Crucial for dialogue to go on, even if only in secret/back channels #UkraineResolution


2/2 Modernisation vs tradition debate only raised tensions #UkraineResolution


Now Yossi Beilin asserts that Huntington theories are tempting, but problematic. His Israel-Palestinian experience 1/2 #UkraineResolution


Levytskyy echoes final sentiment from Moscow: intellectuals must do what they can to stop people dying #UkraineResolution


Andrii Suzdaltsev: Religion is a political marker in the conflict. But ideological nationalism greater influence #UkraineResolution


Andrii Suzdaltsev in Moscow makes first reference to NATO and CIA, and Putin. Professorial starts to become political #UkraineResolution


“We often have different interpretations of events. But instead of a new Berlin wall, we need inter-faith dialogue” #UkraineResolution


Same Kiev audience member suggests instead conflict about resolving issues from Stalinist era #UkraineResolution Moscow’s turn next


Audience member: This is a real war. But what are we fighting for? Not convinced by religious component #UkraineResolution


Audience member in Kiev insists first step is Russian withdrawal before parliamentary democracy can regain primacy #UkraineResolution


Bilokobylskyi: development of Ukraine must avoid population being pulled in either direction #UkraineResolution


Bilokobylskyi: clash of civilisations/religious component widely underestimated, but clear to a resident of Donbas #UkraineResolution


Bilokobylskyi: all sides should think about drawing back from conflict. As Levytskyy said, beware future consequences #UkraineResolution


Bilokobylskyi: crisis playing out in context of new technologies of communication and economic instability, and now war #UkraineResolution
