Despite three years of war, Ukrainians do not despair

There is nothing easy in Ukrainian life today . We must remain realistic. We have four Ukraines, which have a lot in common, but a lot that makes them different from each other.

The first Ukraine is those “lucky ones”, like me, who still live in their home.

The second Ukraine is 4 million internally displaced persons. The third Ukraine is 7 million refugees abroad.

And the last, fourth Ukraine is almost a million Ukrainian soldiers at the front.

On a ten -point scale, the socio-political situation in Ukraine is equal to six or seven Kafkas .

The situation in Russia must be measured in Orwells and has probably already reached level ten .

Thanks to Donald Trump and his team, the US is probably around level four or five on the Orwell scale.
