Ukraine was. Ukraine is. Ukraine will endure.
A thousand years of our statehood are not just history - they are the foundation on which we defend our land, our freedom, and our future.
Якщо ви сьогодні зриваєте одяг та бʼєте військовослужбовця своєї армії, подумайте, хто завтра буде захищати вас від ворожої армії, яка буде так само бити та зривати одяг, але вже з вас.
Очікую справедливої реакції від правоохоронних органів на події у Львові.
A constitution is the right to live by your own laws. On your own land. By your own rules - not someone else's.
That is exactly what we are fighting to defend.
Moscow is killing our children. No words in the world can ever ease this unbearable pain and horror.
According to official figures alone, Russia has taken the lives of 707 Ukrainian children. Another 2,548 have been wounded and maimed by explosions. More than 20,000 have been abducted and forcibly taken from their homes. These are just dry numbers, but each one represents a lifetime of pain for a Ukrainian family.
Today, June 4, is the Day of Remembrance for Children Killed as a Result of Russia’s Armed Aggression Against Ukraine.
Everything the Russians are doing amounts to genocide. It is a systematic and clearly planned attempt to destroy the Ukrainian nation. They deliberately target our children, committing war crimes for which there can be no justification. They are destroying our history, our memory, and trying to physically kill our future.
We will never forgive the Russians for this. There is no and will never be any justification or forgiveness for crimes committed against our children. Everyone who gave these orders and everyone who carried them out will be found and destroyed. The ground will burn beneath your feet wherever you try to hide.
There are no words that can comfort parents whose lives have been shattered forever by Russian killers. But we have a duty: to bring home every abducted child and to do everything to ensure that the truth about these crimes is heard around the world.
Eternal memory to the innocent victims of Russian terror.
Glory to Ukraine!
June 16, 1918
My youth is running out like a spring flowing into the desert. It is an elusive sadness, like an icy fog that paralyzes.
//Edouard Cœurdevey, "Carnets de Guerre 1914-1918"//
They expected just another operation: invade, kill civilians, then return to talk about Dostoevsky and the mysterious Russian soul.
Ukraine is Russia’s biggest mistake.
For our people, we will bury the myth of the “great Russian soldier” and bring war back to every Russian home.
The IOC has banned not the Ukrainian athlete, but its own reputation. Future generations will recall this as a moment of shame.
He simply wanted to commemorate fellow athletes killed in war. There is nothing wrong with that under any rules or ethics.
The IOC intimidated, disrespected, and even lectured our athlete and other Ukrainians on how they should keep quiet about “one of 130 conflicts in the world”.
The IOC has also systemically failed to confront the greatest abuser of international sports and the Olympic Charter — Russia.
A country that started three invasions during the Olympic Truce in the past three decades, implemented the largest state-funded doping program, killed 650 Ukrainian athletes and coaches, and damaged 800 sports facilities in Ukraine.
These are Russians who must be banned, not the commemoration of their victims. None of them are “neutral”.
If the Olympic Creed says that “the most important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part”, then @iocmedia betrayed it completely by preventing @heraskevych from taking part and betrayed 650 Ukrainian athletes and coaches killed by Russia.
We are proud to have Vladyslav who has not betrayed them. Thank you for your principles and bravery.
WATCH IT.
Today russians hit a passenger train. They killed three people. Just like that. Because the world allows this evil.
In this video, a Ukrainian soldier saves a baby.
I have no words.
I hate russians.
May they and everyone who helps Russia burn in hell!
All these remembrance days related to crimes committed by Nazis during WWII are mere hollowed out rituals for the sake of rituals and nothing more. “Never again” doesn’t translate into actual policy to bring peace and justice to Europe as RU aggression against Ukraine made clear.
