Thank you for this, it is always important to accompany history context. Greetings from Croatia. My first neighbor is from Ukraine, Kyiv. She has lived here for almost 30 years, but her family is in Ukraine. There is a lot of corruption and thievery in our country, but what she told really overtook us. Bye
