Thank you very much dear Chokri.

The readout session was wonderful, thanks to the efforts of Sebastien, the
guest speakers, the ICANN staff, translators and guests.

Always nice to see you virtually or person.

>> Dear Euralo Members,
>>
>> I assume that not all of you followed the ICANN75 ReadOut by EURALO
>> yesterday.
>> It was, as always (thanks a lot to ICANN and Sebastien Bachollet) a
>> friendly, constructive, useful readout.
>> But there was an incident: in the comments in the chat (publicly) I
>> received abuse from one of our members.
>>
>> Yesterday I received questions and calls from some (many) of you and
>> ICANN community members.
>> That is why I am using this opportunity to write to you now not just as a
>> member of the At-Large, but as a Secretary of EURALO with the aim to
>> abstract from personalities and look at the (not the first one) incidents
>> that happening inside of EURALO and possible consequences.
>> I would like to share my thoughts and put some rhetorical questions:
>>
>> 1. Our communication with the outside world is our face, inner state,
>> beauty or ugliness of our soul, our level of professionalism. The ability
>> to maintain political correctness and avoid becoming personal and abusing
>> is a skill and talent that we all can aspire to. At least to try.
>>
>> 2. The mission, goals and objectives of the At-Large community and
>> operational rules provide the information about some kind of obligations.
>> Unfortunately, work is not a goal for everyone here. Some are trying to
>> earn PR and political points for themselves on the wave of acute topics and
>> through personal attacks and abuse. These actions haven`t common goals with
>> the working needs and our tasks.
>> Time to time it has been happening since about 2013. But the experienced
>> EURALO members and the reports of the Ombudsman will say more exactly, I
>> may be mistaken. Names of participants are almost the same.
>>
>> 3. We all should  follow the ICANN rules of behavior. But for someone
>> these rules do mean nothing.
>> Why? Are we not all equal? How long can someone be a source of constant
>> conflict?
>>
>> 4. ICANN and At-Large spend significant resources (money, time, efforts)
>> on the Mobilization, on Outreach and Engagement activities, the opportunity
>> to establish local connections in the regions, attract more interested
>> participants (ALSs and individuals), highlight the friendly atmosphere,
>> neutrality and focus on the ICANN issues. The precedents of yesterday (and
>> similar  with the same participants) negates our efforts.
>> I received a lot of questions from people yesterday – what is again going
>> on and why is this acceptable?
>> These are people who look at At-large, EURALO and at the opportunity to
>> join. I hope that we have a future in this direction, but two phrases in
>> chat can destroy the bridges we try to build.
>>
>> 5. We are here with the aim to be useful. What is behind the people who
>> spread intrigues and scandals - only intrigues and scandals or real
>> efficiency for At-Large?
>>
>> 6. Again: Nationalism, extremism are unacceptable things.The history of
>> these personal attacks on me has a reason - I am Russian. I live in Russia.
>>
>> These thoughts above relate not such cases only, more - the present and
>> future of our community (EURALO and At-Large), our ability and desire to
>> communicate, work, grow and develop together, to accept new active
>> participants of the ICANN PDP, to meet Youth here.
>> We should not scare people, sow the conflicts, crumble ourselves into
>> molecules, subgroups and parties, can`t indulging aggressive people to play
>> their games using our public events, involving the names of At-Large
>> members, ICANN staff in personal fights and ruining the reputation of
>> EURALO.
>>
>> Thank you for reading this long text. Maybe we can find the answers
>> together and ways to fix gaps.
>> Yesterday I received a huge support from our community members.
>>
>> Thank you very much my dear friends. Being here, to work and communicate
>> with you is a real privilege and joy for me.
>>
>>
>>
>>
>> Sincerely,
>> Natalia Filina
