Tetyana Barantsova: “The war didn’t start in 2022…in 2014.

In 2014, millions of Ukrainians suffered, their lives changed forever.

People lost their usual surroundings, housing, jobs, suffered psychological injuries, long separations from their relatives, most of whom are elderly, because it is most difficult for them to move and overcome the suffering of evacuation.

In 2022, a terrible test came for these millions for the second time. Many have their homes destroyed for the second time, this time rented.

Most now live with thoughts and prayers for a quiet morning and safety for children and families.

Almost 6.5 million Ukrainians have found refuge in other countries and live with the same thoughts about a quiet peaceful morning for Ukrainians and with uncertainty about their own life, which has changed by 100 percent and depends on a hundred factors that are difficult to cope with in a country that provided shelter.

But they are the force that constantly reminds friendly countries about Ukraine, about Ukrainians, about the need to be united in the struggle for peace and quiet, happy mornings.
