      Im Kiwi and I stand with Russia/Putin. This purely is a war between USA and Russia using Ukraine as the Battlefield.
      WEF/USA/Rothschilds want Russia's Economy, Resources and Gas Pipeline to Europe all for their own greed.
      Biggest distraction from Covid and Pfizer Vaccines. Zelensky is an Actor/Comedian. That answers that.

    I have a friend in Ukraine. I haven't heard from her anymore since an entire week now, when otherwise we've been in touch almost every day since the war began.
    She lives in a village on the outskirts of Slavyansk, where the Russians apparently started attacking now as well. I don't know, if she's still alive or if they're "just" having a power outage again (happened before, but never for this long). She just turned 30 in April, a beautiful young woman, dreaming of one day running her own confectionary café. She didn't want to leave without her mother. Her mother didn't want to leave without the husband. The man isn't allowed to leave the country, obviously, because he's not yet 60. All of them also didn't want to leave without their pets, and they're also taking care of several pets of neighbors who had already left the village. This family has the biggest hearts for animals. And they were worried about looters, if they left; so they just stayed at home. Like so many others...
    Seeing these horrors in the news each day, and also from videos such as these... It's heartbreaking! I light a candle every night for my friend, sending blessings her way, and hope from the bottom of my heart that she and her family are okay and that I'll hear from her again.

It's difficult to believe that, when you see how they ruin entire cities, but I'd go mad without this hope.
      And I hope for your friend in Finland, and ultimately for everybody and every country, that the future is safe and things don't escalate even more! I never imagined, we'd live in a time, where something terrible like this could happen in here Europe again.

I'm in touch with her now only on and off, often only once a week, because constantly they have power outages because of rockets hitting power lines, et cetera. They're still not leaving their home, but her city is now being shelled all the time and her entire house shakes from it. They moved their beds onto the ground floor, so they can run faster down to their tiny basement when the attacks come on. I can't imagine how scary it must be! They're still taking care of all the neighborhood pets, who were left behind. All the time new cats show up for food. I sent her letters, which miraculously still came through and cheered her up a little. So far, while Slavyansk is under rocket attack, the Russians still haven't gotten into the city. Ukrainian forces have even settled in my friend's street. That might sound good at first, but it also means, fighting will be right there once the Russians get closer. I don't want to think about what might happen to her! I'm grateful now everytime I receive a message from her. Hoping for the best!!!

    Hundreds of Lithuanians have chipped in together to buy an advanced military drone for Ukraine in its war against Russia in a show of solidarity with a fellow former Soviet Union country.
    The target of €5 million was raised in just three and a half days - largely in small amounts between €5 and €100 - to fund the purchase of a Bayraktar TB2 military drone.
    While governments of the world's largest countries are endlessly deliberating ... Lithuanian society simply comes together and, you know, is about to fundraise €5m and buy the drone - which is an impressive message to the world.

      There is a way in which people in the West will impugn every motive or action of an adversary and forget every regrettable thought and deed in which they partook. And then when the people on TV tell them about someone or something that’s bad, bad, bad, many Western viewers will just be lulled into the demonization pushed in such propaganda.

      The entire war could be summed up with the words "wealth envy". The majority of the Ukrainians are ambitious hard working ethical people. The majority of the Russian Army come from poor not so hard working and unethical people. This has been the case since the Holodomor in 1923 when Stalin raided Ukraine for its food wealth. Today Russia is stealing thousands of tons of wheat while the solders are sent in to redistribute the wealth by destroying what the Ukrainians have achieved, and returning what they can steal back home.

      @Faiez Cader there is no nazism in Ukraine. In fact, even one single nationalist party didn't make it to the Parliament. There is fascism in Russia, though.

      Lets say you are right and there were nazis in places of power in Ukraine. How does that justify aimlessly bombing entire cities and civilians. The answer is you can't so you can stop being a Putin puppet and admit the goal of the Putin and the Russian government was to try to conquer Ukraine for the purposes of making it part of Russia.

    Nick ................. Thank you for doing this. I need to see these things as i am here in Australia BUT I NEED TO KNOW WHAT SUFFERING my people are suffering.
    As you would have seen our local and all global media do not show what you have helped with us seeing.
    I am sorry you had to see these things it kills me inside what you have seen and I felt.
    Special thank you to YOU, Zhenia (Yevgeniy our driver) and our other NZ friend and anyone else who is not in the camera. Please be safe friends !!!!!
