Dmitry Kuleba, the former Ukrainian Foreign Minister, has been appointed as a senior fellow at Harvard University, one of the United States' premier institutions.
At the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs, part of the Harvard Kennedy School, Kuleba's focus will be on “diplomacy, security, and resilience.”
The appointment was announced earlier this week, with the center characterizing Kuleba as “one of the most influential diplomats of his generation” and a “global champion” of democracy and freedom.
Established in 1636 in Cambridge, Massachusetts, Harvard holds the title of the oldest university in the United States and is known for its selectivity as an Ivy League institution. The average annual tuition exceeds $57,000.
Kuleba’s new role signifies the university’s “commitment to addressing the world’s most pressing challenges in an era of deep geopolitical uncertainty” and aligns with its mission to prepare future leaders.
The center recognizes Kuleba as “a leading architect of Ukraine’s foreign and security policy,” highlighting his “pivotal role” in advancing Kiev’s wartime diplomacy and enhancing its ties with the United States and the European Union.
Kuleba resigned from his position as Ukraine's chief diplomat in September during a significant purge of senior officials led by President Vladimir Zelensky. Prior to his departure, he maintained that a military victory was attainable for Ukraine, provided that Western allies supplied an adequate amount of heavy weaponry.
He was known for his forthright demands for arms and funding, famously telling German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock to deliver long-range cruise missiles, asserting it was “just a matter of time” before she would “do it anyway.”
“His presence will be an inspiration to our students and an invaluable resource to our academic community,” stated Meghan L. O’Sullivan, the director of the Belfer Center.
During his tenure at the Kennedy School, Kuleba intends to delve into issues “at the intersection of diplomacy, security, and resilience,” examining strategies to “counter autocracies, strengthen democratic institutions, and build resilient international coalitions,” according to O’Sullivan. He will also lead seminars and lectures for students, and plans to write a book.
In a recent interview with the Financial Times, Kuleba acknowledged that Ukraine will “lose the war” with Russia if conditions remain unchanged, adding that the country was “lucky” to receive the support it has from the current US administration under President Joe Biden.
