A panel discussion is taking place indoors, likely at a conference or event. Three individuals are seated in white armchairs on a stage or raised platform, facing an audience whose backs of heads are visible in the foreground. On the right, a man in a dark suit, white shirt, and dark tie is speaking into a small handheld microphone. He has grey hair and glasses and is gesturing with his left hand. Next to him, a woman with short dark hair is seated, wearing a black top and light brown, wide-leg trousers. She is holding a pen and looking towards the speaker, appearing to listen attentively. To her left, another woman with blonde hair is partially visible, also seated and seemingly listening. Behind the panel, there is a large purple backdrop with the text "epik" prominently displayed in white, stylized letters. Below "epik," the full name "EUROPEAN POLICY INSTITUTE IN KYIV" is written. This logo and text are repeated across the backdrop. Small tables with water glasses are placed between the speakers. The overall atmosphere suggests a formal presentation or discussion. The audience is seated, engaged in listening to the speakers.
