"Yaryna’s Journey: Love, Loss, and Courage on Ukraine’s Frontlines | Maverick News Exclusive"

Maverick news the world is [Music] watching okay so this is an interview that I did earlier today it is recorded but this is the the full length unedited interview with yarina and we're using only her first name because I do have some concerns and I don't know maybe um you know we this will be addressed at a later time but just her first name tonight because she is concerned that um if there is a situation where Ukraine loses more ground or loses this war the Russians will come in and ident and and kill her as peace is declared this is uren yurina thank you for joining us on the program today uh first of all can you just introduce yourself give people your name so that it's properly pronounced and uh and tell people where you are yeah sure uh first of all thank you so much for having me here my name is yurina uh yarina in Ukrainian but um I'm 25 years old soon to be 26 um I currently live in in Ukraine um thek region and um just trying to live my life actually during all of this stuff during the war and it's been increasingly difficult in the last week because Donald Trump cut intelligence services to the Ukrainian forces leaving everyone very vulnerable to attack and Russia has increased those attacks can you talk a little bit about that how has that had an impact um actually living here where I'm currently it's not it doesn't make any difference you can always hear the thunder noises sometimes they are more distant sometimes they are like more noticeable but they are always here and maybe Russians just got a bit more cheered by that whatever whatever that was happened in the white house uh of course that was honey for their ears but for Ukrainian people that hasn't change a lot we we are still fighting we are still living through that we are not going to just give up the the point is that it doesn't make much difference for you because you're being under constant attack up where you are because as you've moved right up into the danet area you said that how how close are you to to the front um it's something around 26 kilm just because the front line is not even and the nearest uh the nearest part is like 26 kilometers from me and maybe you can explain to folks why you decided to move so close to to the to the fighting it's always about love so um um I've been dating my boyfriend for 3 years and he's uh actually he's been serving in military since 2019 before the big war started uh he used to serve in uh what What's called anti-terrorist um operation and after the big scale Invasion happened he still uh served in the military so um his been to some tough places and he got injured and uh thanks God he made it out of the injury and after that I just decided that there may be a day that I I I I will lose him basically without experiencing like basic people like stuff like no dates no flowers no um no chocolates and stuff and I just decided that even if I die tomorrow I will die happy and with the with the person I love beside me and like thinking about death is actually something that's haunting me every day like every night before I go to sleep I think well will it land on me will it land on the like the building next to me and it's kind of it just uh the effect on your uh mind is it's just insane tell me about the about just living daytoday there um with with the missiles the Glide bombs coming in all the time um it's really scary and you never get used to it basically um it's like sometimes you hear a distant Thunder sometimes you hear like your ceiling is uh vibrating and sometimes it's just um you you don't know where to run because uh there's nowhere you can actually hide from a rocket and there's no point from on hiding from rocket so it's just you sit and wait and uh I have um this app we actually uh created so many apps to show when the air air raid alert um and sometimes like there are days when it's just going off and you have a device on your rest you say to yeah yeah uh it's it's just uh um Apple watch okay and it it has notifications uh like from different apps and from that apps uh that shows your air raid alert it also gives me ifications and sometimes it just goes vibrating and vibrating and vibrating and sometimes it shows that the risk of being attacked is more than usual so you know that you have to go to uh some places where there are two um walls between you and the window because uh it may break and you may get injured from the uh glass so I just go grab my cats and we go to the corridor and hide for you this war didn't begin three years ago here in North America people have this thing in their heads with the propaganda is being fed to us where people think this war started like three years ago but the truth is it started much longer ago about 10 or 11 years ago can you explain to people what what how that how that has transpired and what that has meant for you so actually it happened from Maan which uh took place in 2014th I was 15 at that time I remember uh realizing that that was wrong we have we have to fight because uh I just realized that something is going on and um I don't remember my childhood like the memory does a weird thing um because you don't remember times without a war and it seems like it's been per hour uh I'm I'm 25 and it's like 10 years already so you know so you were like 15 years old when the maidan protests happened which erupted because Ukraine was in a in a crisis and people decided that you wanted to join and trade more with the European Union and Vladimir Putin didn't want that to happen and then your president of the time Victor yanukovich and correct correct me if I'm wrong about any of this but Victor yanukovich promised that he would sign the documents so that Ukraine could trade more just trade goods and services right more with EUR Europe to raise the standard of living and help Ukraine get out of its debt and then he didn't do that which he refused in the end which resulted in protests and then he fled the country and went to Russia because that revealed that he was actually a pro-russian um essentially puppet president of Vladimir Putin is that pretty accurate yeah 100% true I'm actually so happy to see that like I scroll through Tik Tok and I get lots of American uh videos and I'm so happy to see that people are realizing that like the actual truth the actual what actually was going on uh during all that time uh I'm so happy that you basically started to open your eyes and see uh the real things because we all live through that we all know that that was basically true that was it and really so happy that you you you also know that 100% true basically what you just said yes and 10 11 years ago people here were not paying any attention to Ukraine and then Vladimir Putin went in and annexed Crimea which was part of Ukraine and also you had this um separatist movement up in your area where you're living now around the donet and donbas region and again correct me if I'm wrong about any of this but the separatists were armed by the Russians and they actually sent Uh Russian troops in there without insignias on their uniforms that called them little green men and they really started a essentially a civil war up there and used am I wrong about any of this because please correct me that wasn't a civil war because uh we we found many evidence that from the first place Russians came into Ukraine and separatists was just a prop part of propaganda to show that oh well theet could region in hansan people just wanted to join Russia and separatist are uh like they are uh thought to be Ukrainian people who were against that but um that's just a part of propaganda to you know to show that this what happened in DK region in 2014 was was Ukrainian people's decision to uh like uh become a separate separate countries like separate republics so what what what's and so maybe the better way to explain it is it was a sort of a fake Civil War because Russia invaded that part of the country where you had a larger Russians speaking population see the narrative over here what they've been the information they're feeding to us is that the Ukrainian government just started to Shell to to to bomb Russians speaking populations up there for quote no reason and people kind of just leave it at that but it's not true it's because you had armed separatists separatists armed by Russia and Russian soldiers in that area and they and Russia was saying oh no we're not we didn't send any soldiers in there but later we learned that they actually did and it was Russian soldiers from the very beginning is that is that again accurate or am I off paase yeah yeah so uh it was just playing a dirty game to like show things that are not true uh for all the world to think that oh well just people just wanted to separate their country and create uh separate republics but it was not true and actually uh the reason why um denk and luhansk regions are seemed to be Russian speaking regions is quite cynic because during the USSR times uh theet and Lans regions was uh were actually uh totally Ukrainian speaking uh regions and I remember seeing photos of people in vishanka in Ukrainian traditional clothes and uh they were just killed during the hore uh the genocide that was uh like performed multiple times on like there were two holdor if I'm not uh mistaken I'm not a hisor in the 19 in the 1930s and Joseph stallen and They confiscated the grain from the Ukrainian Farmers took it all and left them nothing and there was a huge famine because he just confiscated all of the uh the fruits of their labor the all of the grain that the farmers produced he he just stole it took it sold it on the open market to um capitalize his in his Industrial Revolution and impoverished the people of Ukraine he basically raped the land and raped the farmers and stole their uh stole everything that they had and the people and as a result there was a huge famine that resulted in millions of deaths yeah and uh these people were substituted with people deported from Russia so basically um people from Russia were uh taken here they lived their life of course they were Russian language speakers as lots of other ukrainians we all we are all bilingual everybody in Ukraine speaks Russian so there's absolutely no reason for us to be mad to people who speaks Russian uh especially that time now of course that's weird if you want to speak Russian but still it's People's Choice and we we we are not going to go and uh shoot those people because that's just not Humane we are still we are still one nation I speak four languages that that doesn't change anything so that was just a made up reason to start everything basically so here people keep saying why don't it's Ukraine's fault Ukraine started the war and I I'm having trouble wrapping my head around that they I could I they also say Vladimir Putin invaded because n because Ukraine wanted to join NATO but these arguments mind Vladimir Putin business what we wanted to join that's none of his business we are a separate independent country who who's Vladimir Putin he's a president of a separate country and why why do we have to do something that he wants or why do we have not to do something that he doesn't want that's the same if I if Ukraine tells okay America don't choose Trump for president and if you do then what I can I Ukraine cannot tell uh anyone to do anything the same as Russia and how it's our fault if our uh land is occupied if our people if we stop fighting we will just lose our country we will get occupied and that's it if Russia stops fighting everything stops so I don't see how it's our fault and I don't see how uh because like some people may say just stop shooting just cease fire if we stop shooting this straight up means that we kill ourselves that's it if we stop fighting this means we will stop living as as a nation as a country as as human beings we will not survive because for myself I'm a musician I'm a nationalist I love my country I I'm I'm ready to fight my father is in military my uh boyfriend is in military if I stop fighting myself if I just you know just okay Russia come take me they will kill me instantly just because I have tattoos I'm uh Ukrainian speaking uh person uh I'm a musician uh I write my music in Ukrainian language which is also a crime um all of my messages in uh social medias they they are pro Ukrainian if I stop if I stop fighting I will not leave so that's that's not that's not an option for us for Putin if he stops fighting he just uh grabs his military goes back home nothing happens there will be peace but not for us that's that's crucial what everybody has to understand if if we stop fighting we will stop leaving that's all everything in me wants to to scream about that that's really all the message so if the if the if we get a if if the war just stops if Ukraine just capitulates if you just surrender we we can see from what has happened through the war that Russia will roll in there with tanks they'll roll into keev they'll roll into to the cities the towns and they'll start to den naify Ukraine and they'll come to you because they'll accuse you of being a Nazi and they'll and which is to say that you're a nationalist because you love your country yeah and they will they will kill you is that pretty much what's going to happen yeah yeah uh you absolutely correct not not to confuse nationalist with Nazi because these are diff different nationalist just loves their country and they just want to do everything to save its sovereignty culture and traditions and Nazi wants to kill everyone else but their nation which um basically something that happens with Russians now they are trying to kill ukrainians just because we are ukrainians they are they've been trying to erase our cultures basically for all their um all the time all the wars between um Russian russan and Ukraine they they haven't just started three years ago even not 10 years ago it's been going on forever yes that's really the key right because words are important and some people twist words change the not the meanings of words use words to mean different things and in this case the word Nazi is being used I think in a in a very broad sense by the Russians to include anybody that is standing up to them and anybody that is pro- Ukraine nationalists yeah nationalists equals Nazi in this particular conflict is that in the in the eyes of Russia is that a fair assessment yeah yeah uh they told like they had multiple reasons for invading us and uh destroying Nazis was like the one of numerous ones and basically people who who love their country who want we just want to live peacefully we just want to do our thing we want to uh evolve as a country as a nation and they just want us to do that because we are strong Nation with uh strong history and culture and they just don't want us to exist and they they've been trying to erase our culture and nation and even language throughout all the time basically yes I I know that there was some Focus um on the destruction of even libraries that people were concerned about and I when I saw some some videos coming out with people showing that how concerned they were about the destruction of libraries I thought why are they this was earlier on in the conflict and I thought why are we seeing these videos about libraries and and books and then it it it occur I realized that it's because you're trying to preserve your culture books are an integral part of that an important part Books language culture that's what is also at stake here here you're trying to prevent a cultural genocide yes pretty much pretty much it so many museums were harmed and so many artworks were inevitably destroyed just because it's our cultures for example the Museum of Maria primachenko the uh famous artist who painted um like I I think you can Google it and uh you will see her works are really uh remarkable for its own style and some of them are inevitably destroyed they are gone forever tell me a little bit more about um your boyfriend and then we'll we'll learn well why don't you tell me about your father first because we haven't heard at all about him and you say that he's in the military too yeah his uh servant well he went to as a volunteer basically when it started on 24th of February 2022 he went straight up to the military office uh they didn't have his record so he had to sneak to uh the medical uh he had to ask them to take him because he's quite old he has some um uh health issues but he wanted to fight because it's kind of a family thing we are striving for um sorry I lost my word we're striving for truth I would say mm so um he's been uh serving for for this entire time for uh since the fullscale invasion happened and he's actually um he's not a military man he's never like uh he served his time um in military when he needed to back in Soviet Union times and after that he just worked peacefully his um forgot the word but he makes uh some things from wood like chairs um Carpenter he's a carpenter so um when he went to military he just found his way by making some things for military like he does what he knows how to do so he um usually goes home uh takes some wood takes some tools and he makes some uh important things for the military for the guys who actually fight so he he he doesn't fight because he can't if he goes to the front line he can't even wear military shoes because he has issues with his feet but still he wants to add his part and I think that's a great example how everything everyone is doing what they can do even if you can't fight if you cannot um hold a gun you can hold a tool that you can you know how to use and you can be useful for the military for for the people who's actually fighting by doing what you can do the best um so he's serving like a few um kilometers away from me so we tend to see each other even uh more frequently than my mom sees him because he comes to us to visit he has his own van uh he uses to transport some goods from the center of Ukraine and yeah so so you must worry about him constantly as you do your boyfriend and and tell us a little bit more about him about your boyfriend uh yeah we've been dating for three years I think I've mentioned it and for all this time we haven't lived together we haven't had any dates any like normal people's stuff we have had dates flowers chocolates uh we started speaking in the internet he was already serving at that moment it was in 2021 I think uh it was already a war in the um east of Ukraine here where I I am actually in this city where uh I am uh people um Invaders came here they tried to occupy this city too but they just um resisted so the Frontline just shifted a bit to the East and my boyfriend was actually uh injured during um being in the front line doing um I'm not sure how to call that so um he was shot um and he's vain um not sure how so basically a major vein in his body was uh injured and he lost like a liter of blood which was really critical and I remember calling him he he was not supposed to be uh reachable he was supposed to be there and I knew that he he was not supposed to be like called but my mom for some reason wanted to call him and he actually uh took the call and he he was he was like I think you can tell he was drunk or something uh his voice was like crackling and stuff and he was like oh no and I heard that sound you know that beep beep beep and um I'm I'm I have good bumps right now because uh my my memory just didn't want to remember that and call calling this uh is weird so um he said oh I'm okay I'm okay now I was shot that's fine and uh my hand started to shake uh I just I remember I cried for like a minute and then I came to my room I grabbed a bag I started uh GA gathering some stuff and the next day I was in the hospital with him and actually I uh I don't know how but I managed to be in every hospital that he was in and his uh recovery took about a year and a half and I've been to every hospital that I was that he was recovering in and I remember I spent the night in the first hosp hospital that he was in it was I I don't know how to explain that um experience that that was just like a fever dream you know uh he was in the room with other uh military people and also there was a person who was on the gas station when um something I don't remember maybe a rocket something dropped on the gas station and that person was without legs so he he was next to his bad so that was just cruel because you you try to live your life you try not to think about war because if you think about war every day you just get insane you just go nuts crazy and go to the facilities that can um that can work with that so you just try to live your life and then you just go to this hospital and see like how it looks like for these people and you just it's like waking up for that dream so that that was crazy and after that I just decided that even I don't care what happens I want to leave I want to experience to experience my life and to live with the person who I love because I just realized that at some point I I can lose this opportunity because and I I don't I don't want to lose my life to to those people no I will live my life 100% even if even if I die because of that how often do you get to see your boyfriend every day that's I'm so happy to see him every day just because he was injured he uh cannot fight anymore but he serves in an orchestra of course they don't play instruments but they still can do some work and he's lucky enough to come home uh for those times when uh he does not serve when he does not do the tasks that he's supposed to do uh so we get to see each other every day and I'm so lucky I realize that I'm so lucky because many women do not have this opportunity my mom doesn't see my dad for months for uh we in our um in our bathroom we have tiles and my mom uh writes dates from 1st July 2022 to 13th July 2022 we have so many dates we are running out of uh room basically for those dates these are the dates when dad comes home she wants to remember those times he's also lucky enough to be able to go home for so many times just because he does uh some tasks that require him to do so but still we are really lucky to have those people home for numerous of times because some people just get to see their Rel relatives their friends that they are loved ones twice a year is the I just to get off topic there a little bit I something kind of caught my attention two days ago when I was researching another aspect of what's going on in Ukraine and it I'd heard this before but it just during the um invasion of Russia in 2014 in the dunet region the they they they renamed a couple of those regions well they started to rename them people's republics and I there are things going on over here in Canada that mirror kind of the the early days that that led to the the war in Ukraine can you explain to people the history of what happened with that the naming of the people's republics and do you have any idea why they chose to call them the like people's republics there there's got to be a political or even a propaganda reason behind that can you shed any light on that for me and I don't mean to come at you kind of unexpectedly with this but do you have any idea can you help me with this at all so um I'm not an expert and I'm not a historian but um and I was I was small during that time so I may be mistaken but um they could they could not uh add those territories to Russia because it would be too obvious so um back at the time when uh those territories were invaded um those green peoples uh men Russian soldiers yeah yeah uh they were sent here to pretend to be ukrainians who wanted um who wanted to be independent from Ukraine who who were oppressed by us and um there was a thing called referendum not sure if that's a word for English yes that's exactly right yeah uh so they decided to have this referendum uh for people to vote as whether you want to be a part of Ukraine or you want to be independent and of course uh the uh the results of this referendum were fabricated uh to vote like 10% that people of uh uh luhansk and denet region want to be independent from Ukraine want to be uh not oppressed by us so uh they fabricated that and they I do remember that like 98% voted in favor here and in another region like 97% I know yes please continue yeah yeah so uh and they just told okay we are independent now we are Lans National like uh elener and denner in our uh language not sure how to but don't care uh these are not leged these these are not recognized by or maybe they are recognized like by two countries Russia recognizes them but Russ but other than that I it's not they are not they were never recognized internationally um and uh yeah they just were not recognized on the world stage at all other countries did not recognize it yeah because it was it it was not legally held in by no means it was IL legal at first place so and when I see the what caught me was the the use of the word people's republics it uh it seemed to have a connection back to the old Soviet era um the choice of the words people's republics um which we see in many communist countries use of those those names people's republics like People's Republic of China um you know the Russ Russia is a republic but um I just I I appreciate you clarifying the history on it for us it it helps me make sense of things over here and sheds new light actually on what's Happening Here in Canada where today we seem to be a country facing a similar crisis because we have separatist movements being um promoted in Canada as well at a time when our national sovereignty is a threat um so what's going on in Ukraine um as I say almost yeah maybe the same outcome for you I I'm so sorry for you guys I I really hope that you you don't you don't end up in it we have to fight if we have to stand and and fight because uh silence is something that that's that kills basically every everybody has to stand up and tell everybody that that's not okay that's it's quite a pattern it is if you see President Trump said when your President Vladimir zalinski was in the white house and he ambushed him in my view um that it takes two to to to to tango or to fight and I've I've always thought that that is a um an an exercise and Mis ction that it's not true it doesn't always take two it really only takes one to start a war and and one person could end a war by going home when they invade another country um and sometimes even if you have it doesn't take two it takes one to start it one could one could end it by just going home but you don't really have a choice because you are home is that fair we would never make a choice to be in war we were actually forced to fight and that's 100% true I if you want to stop this war please go get Putin and tell him to stop that's the only way because once again if we stop fighting that's that's simple and the Putin wins because uh I actually watched the whole thing in that uh Oval Office that was painful um but I managed to do that and um the ceasefire won't work because if we stop the fire we we are sure that they will not stop the fire we've seen that too many times during from 2014th uh we had we already had ceas fires and we couldn't we couldn't fight back actually we signed the paper that did not allow us to fight back but we were we were there there was fire from their end and if we signed the ceas fire we would would not be able to fight back and this means that that's it so it takes one you're right they they have to stop it because we we have never chose this it's not our choice and we if we could have this choice we would never choose that because we have we had our plans we wanted to build a strong Nation uh that Europe or oriented we wanted to build our culture because for so many years it it's been they were trying to destroy our culture and just uh erase that from the earth we we were trying to build our own future and if we could choose we would do that instead of this because our children are not having their childhood our people are dying and that's that it's just not this should not happen we live on earth like that's uh just a sphere in the space and what a dumb thing to go and kill people when you have so many opportunities and this Earth can just fall at any minute and you you choose to do that instead of living your life that's just so that's just so unfair that we have to do that have you lost friends or family um unfortunately I think everyone lost something or someone in this war that it's too long um I had a friend and uh he actually died in 2022 and uh he he was never buried so his family doesn't even have a place to come and remember him he's still uh he's still in in the south in the East sorry he's still there he they couldn't retrieve his body and returned to home where he belonged so um actually they have a memory Bonner we have a lot of them I actually have a video clip for you if you want to include that in your podcast um we have alleys where lots of big photos with those people with their names with their small like stories and where they died and there are just so many of them that you cannot even find a place for every of them and for some families it's the only place where they can go and lay some flowers because they don't have a grave they their bod not properly buried they just lay where they died and that's horrible that's how it is and president Trump said says that he's having trouble with Ukraine because it's like you don't want peace or that zalinsky doesn't want peace why do you keep fighting oh we want beace so bad we will fight till the end we are we keep fighting just because we want peace and otherwise there there will be no peace if we stop fighting people I think will be confused by that I understand what you what you're saying but people will say well how if you want peace why do you keep fighting it's an upside down um they're turning it upside down so that people get confused the point is if you stop fighting Russians will come and they will kill you yes just imagine a school bully and this bully starts to fight you and if you don't fight back he will just I don't know kill you those bullies and if you fight back you have a chance to survive but if you don't fight back there is no chance yes because they're all because they're already in your country they're in your home they're already attacking you they're you're under attack you're defending yourself you're not attacking them you're trying to get them to stop but they won't stop so it it continues and it continues and when you sign the ceasefire you sign the piece of paper you stop fighting and then they' continued to attack and as your president has shown 35 different times now 35 times you've signed agreements to stop fighting and Russia has broken it 35 times um we've signed we've signed a ceis fire once like not 35 times not that I I I mischaracterize that there were agreements that were broken like different portions of agreements they were broken but uh I I'm not sure if that's true because they were broken like every day for like a few times after we signed the ceasefire during the anti-terrorist operation it was broken like every day few times a day and we were uh listening to the news oh um uh Russia just uh broke ceasefire again and to the to the weather news it was like that it was just like ABC and Russia break ceasefire just because they can and they always deny it they always deny it no it's Ukraine it's Ukraine who uh who's uh fighting who's shelling bombs for Ukrainian people and some people still believe that it was us I don't know how to combat those kinds of lies and they're running rampant over here I think talking to you today may help I'm hoping that it does it's a very difficult thing because over here for people it's like watching a television show because it just comes through a video screen but for you it's it's very very real how does the rest of your family cope with this your your mom do you have brothers sisters relatives yeah um my mom lives in the center of the city uh sorry in in the center of Ukraine uh Bava which is it seemed to be more or less safe but uh the shellings came here as well so recently uh block of flats were shelled and uh the entire part of that building was destroyed and many people died it was Saturday morning so just block of flats with Civ civil people and she she tries not to think about it she's pretty much always nervous because she doesn't know what happens next to me or my father she tries not to think about it but again it's it's really um hard um you know sometimes you leave your regular life because people are interesting creatures that get used B pretty much to everything if you think about it because you you've never lived in this you may think that uh that's horrible thing and it is but we our uh brains are so crooked and so messed up that if if like it didn't uh destroy my windows or if I didn't hear any uh really loud noises that made my ceiling vibrate it was a wonderful day and that's that's something that you learn how to live with and I'm sure that after this war um overs with our Victory we will have to learn to live without war and I think it would be really Pleasant and um my brother doesn't serve he is uh working as a criminal uh specialist he basically uh researchers uh evidence for crimes um he's an criminal expert I would say so so uh it's uh it's considered considered a critical infrastructure so he he cannot be um held to the military but if he wants to he can join for now Mom says that she will not survive if if he goes to the military as well so he stands they leave together now because uh we we are worried for Mom if she stays alone uh it would be harsh on her so they keep together we have lots of cats lots of homeless cats actually uh they just came to us and decided that we're a good place to live and we we decided not to argue and um they they try to live their best because who knows for how long this will take for how more long and you you have to live your life because at the end of the day it it may end pretty uh unexpectedly and it's like sto stoicism I'm not sure how to refer to that stoic uh stoic uh philosophy where you just learn to leave world needs more people like you taking care of homeless cats the world needs more people like you so that we have more people taking care of those who can't take care of themselves the strong need to help those who are in need that's what would make the world a better place what do you want for the future do you want a family what what what would you like to have happen and um it seems like you're pretty determined to live your life on your terms regardless of this conflict I don't know about family because during the war um I I cannot just bring a new life in into this world it's quite messed up at the moment so uh for the future I only uh I only see our Victory and peace that's only thing that I want basically nothing more and after that we can speak about endless opportunities of Family Travel and and and stuff but for now this war has to be stopped and not by us all you want is your freedom in your country yeah it's always been like that urina is there anything else you would like to add today or think that we might have missed um I would just say thank you for an opportunity to be the one of the million voices of us um each of our stories are um unique tragic at some point but um it's it's showing I hope to show that even in the darkest time uh there is light and you have to be this light sometimes so um I have hope in uh in American people in uh Canada people because I I see so many um videos of of uh support and kind words I believe in Europe uh I believe that it will be ended and we will keep living we will try to rebuild our country we will try to rebuild our lives our future we will get it back because for now our lives are stolen nobody lives the way they would like to at the moment someone is fighting their life someone is is trying to live through that and somebody's unfortunately giving their life to our freedom and we cannot sacrifice that we cannot just give up that's not the point not not the case for us urina you keep taking care of those homeless cats much love from Canada I know that our country uh is still with you thank you for doing this today thank you [Music] [Music]
