Hello, everybody who is too thin, you have tuned into the Glend Show.

This is Glendlaury.

The Manhattan Institute for Policy Research in New York City sponsors the Glend Show.

I'm John Paulson, Senior Fellow at the Manhattan Institute and I'm here every week and this

week I'm here with Hayam Shwecki.

Welcome Hayam.

Thank you.

It's great.

How do you want to introduce yourself, Hayam?

Hayam is a writer and he is a man of many parts who has just emerged from an extended

period of service on the ground, on the field of conflict in Ukraine where he volunteered

fighting with Ukrainian forces and he's here to talk about that amongst other things.

So welcome again, Hayam.

Thank you.
