Tomorrow, I'll post some clarifications about this event - what my grandmother was hoping to achieve, the prospects that her ruse would succeed, both with the Germans and with the Slovak authorities in Kameňany, how the other Ukrainian refugees in Kameňany felt about it and more.

Amanhã, publicarei alguns esclarecimentos sobre este evento — o que minha avó esperava alcançar, as chances de sucesso de seu estratagema (tanto com os alemães quanto com as autoridades eslovacas em Kameňany), como os outros refugiados ucranianos em Kameňany reagiram a isso, e muito mais.

Завтра я запишу деякі уточнення щодо цієї події: чого саме пробувала досягти моя бабуня, які були шанси на успіх її хитрих плянів (як у стосунках із німцями, так і зі словацькою владою в Каменянах), як до цього поставилися інші українські біженці в Каменянах, та багато іншого.

I gotta say nobody is falling for Trump’s tall tales about a great diesel deal to benefit Americans, a diplomatic strategy to restart peace talks, and the bad Zelensky who doesn’t want peace. Everyone understands what’s going on— Trump is helping Russia and trying to force Ukraine to surrender.

I only learned about my grandmother’s criminal past in Hungary after she had passed away. When we were little, my grandmother so often entertained us near bedtime with her colourful stories, that I wish I had heard her own version of this episode. She was a great storyteller.

Я дізналася про кримінальне минуле моєї бабуні в Угорщині аж після її смерті, то ніколи не чула, як вона сама описувала цю пригоду. Втім, вона часто розважала нас своїми історіями, то було б надзвичайно цікаво почути цю розповідь із її власних вуст.

I sympathize both with the Slovaks who revolted against their nazi-aligned government and welcomed the soviet union, and with the Ukrainian refugees fleeing soviet oppression and willing to turn even to the nazis. In a world engulfed by a brutal war, it was not easy for these two groups to coexist.

Simpatizo tanto com os eslovacos que se rebelaram contra o seu governo pró-nazista e se entregaram aos braços da união soviética, quanto com os refugiados ucranianos que fugiram da opressão soviética e estavam dispostos a apoiar até mesmo os nazistas.

Я співчуваю і словакам, що повстали проти свого пронацистського уряду й кинулися в обійми радянського союзу, і також українським біженцям, котрі тікали від радянського гніту й були готові підтримати навіть і нацистів. У світі, охопленому жорстокою війною, цим двом групам було непросто співіснувати.

Trump is lying when he says Zelensky was offered many deals. Ukraine hasn’t been offered ANY deals. They've been repeatedly pressured to make concessions in exchange for NOTHING but a promise to start peace talks. Meanwhile, russia has repeated non-stop that it intends to achieve ALL its goals.

I am impressed that Aunt Mira remembers so many places she passed through when she was seven years old. Perhaps this is actually because of the movement - she was constantly settling in a new place, hoping to put down some roots, then moving on while trying to hang on to her memories...

I've never heard a detailed account of my family's time in Slovakia. I was told only that the people were very warm and generous, but naively hopeful about communism in 1944. My aunt was a child, not told about everything adults feared. Yet as she talks to me, the fears and uncertainty are clear.

Я ніколи не чула подробиці про перебуття моєї родини в Словаччині. Я розуміла що Словаки були дуже привітні й щедрі, але наївно чекали комуністів у 1944 році. Тітка була тоді дитина, і їй дорослі напевно не розповідали про все те, чого боялися. Але страхи все ж таки цілком очевидні в її оповіданнях
