Betrayed

In a world drifting toward moral ambiguity and political appeasement, Askold S. Lozynskyj delivers a fearless and unrelenting chronicle of our time.

Written from the front lines of history, diplomacy, faith, and conscience, this book is a searing collection of political essays and reflections on Ukraine's struggle for survival, the failures of global institutions, the corrosion of democratic values, and the dangerous normalization of tyranny. With the clarity of a seasoned jurist and the passion of a lifelong advocate for justice, Lozynskyj exposes the complicity of world leaders, the betrayal of moral authority, and the catastrophic cost of silence.

From the Vatican to the Kremlin, from Washington to Kyiv, these pages confront uncomfortable truths: the misuse of religion as a political weapon, the appeasement of war criminals, the erosion of international law, and the perilous consequences of populism in the West. At its core, this book is both a warning and a plea-an insistence that history is not inevitable, but shaped by courage, integrity, and action.

This is not a neutral account. It is a moral reckoning.

For readers who care about democracy, human dignity, and the future of a free world, this book stands as an essential testament to why Ukraine's fight is not only its own-but ours.
