In  Berkeley Talks  episode 156, Ukrainian Member of Parliament Inna Sovsun joins Yuriy Gorodnichenko, a professor of economics at UC Berkeley, and Janet Napolitano, a professor at the Goldman School of Public Policy and former secretary of homeland security, to discuss the impact of Russia's war on Ukraine and what comes next for the Ukrainian people. Sovsun began by describing an interaction between her and her 10-year-old son during an attack on Kyiv on Oct. 10: "We woke up and I was about to take him to school when I read on the news that there were explosions in Kyiv,” says Sovsun. "At first, I thought, 'OK, we can still hide in the bathroom.' Then I heard some explosions myself and I realized I should probably go to the bomb shelter, which in our case is the closest metro station.
