Yes, I’m Ukrainian🇺🇦
Yes, I know russian language fluently - No, that does not make me russian.
Yes, I love my country.
No, that does not make me a Nazi.
Yes, I’m from Donbas.
No, we were not waiting for “liberation”
Yes, I smile in photos and videos.
That does not mean war hurts less.
And yes -
I lost people because of this war.
Some physically.
Some emotionally.
Some forever.
That pain stays with you long after the headlines disappear💔
