I see that I have a very low reach here (about 9 views per post), and BlueSky's restrictions on the amount of text and video length do not allow me to work fully, so I'm going inactive here. Join my Blog: www.patreon.com/c/ukrainians...

This girl lived in Donetsk. She was forced to move to Avdiivka when Russia invaded, but then Russia brought war there too. After that, she moved to Pokrovsk, but Russia came there as well.

If a snail had left Donetsk on February 24, 2022, by today it would have crossed all of Ukraine and reached Romania. The huge Russian army also left Donetsk on February 24, 2022, but since then it has not managed to advance beyond Donetsk region.

A girl from Mariupol talks about Russian propaganda that Russia spread in the east about western Ukraine, in order to turn the east against the west. This was part of the preparation for today’s attempts by Russia to occupy Ukraine.

Russians hate Ukrainians because Russia attacked Ukraine, kills Ukrainians, and lies about Ukrainians all sorts of horrible things. Do you understand the logic of the Russians?

Is Russia capable of anything other than hatred? Any comment by Russians on social media is hate speech. Any Russian action is war, terror, genocide. I honestly cannot recall anything else Russia does.

When speaking of peace, the world forgets that we had peace until Russia attacked us. When speaking of treaties, the world forgets that Ukraine had treaties until Russia broke them.

Any peace talks with terrorists are nothing more than talks about fulfilling the terrorists’ demands. So any peace talks with Russia are simply a waste of time, nothing more — because we will not pay with honor and dignity for a temporary peace and Budapest Memorandum–level “guarantees”!

The village orchestra "Harmony" from Kivshovata (Kyiv region) created the overture "Shahed", putting the sounds of an Iranian drone flying on the sheet music. Ukrainians even turn Russian terror against us into art.

There is a real possibility that in the near future Russia will use Belarus to attack the Baltic states — officially making it look like Belarus, while in reality it’s Russia. And if that succeeds, the next targets would be Poland, Sweden, Finland...

The war has shown that the Baltic states are our best friends, followed right after by the Nordic countries. There are a few more friends, but others behave selfishly — in the worst sense of the word — and some have even revealed themselves as enemies, including some of our neighbors.

Sometimes, even in the most propagandistic system, there are people who do not fall victim to propaganda, who do not act like everyone else, who do not go along with the crowd. It is these people who change the world!

So let’s not arrest murderers and terrorists — let’s just impose sanctions on them. For example, we’ll forbid them from shopping in the biggest supermarkets of the city. But not right away.

I don’t understand how the U.S., Europe, and NATO still haven’t realized that the only “security guarantee” for Ukraine which Russia would ever accept is one that doesn’t prevent Russia from attacking Ukraine again.
