Instead of imposing further sanctions and restrictions on Russia, the west is ready to crown the film Anora with all the awards, despite the fact that the Russian actor Yura Borisov, who appears in the film, also starred in a biopic of Mikhail Kalashnikov, the inventor of the AK-47, which was partly filmed in Crimea after its annexation.
The lesson was structured around eight speakers, each talking about their war experience: four Ukrainians (including me) and four Russians.
I had to record a video message in English and talk about my experience of serving in the armed forces of Ukraine, so children around the world could learn English from these videos and accompanying materials.
Still, I must pack my screams, nausea and despair into diplomatic phrases and requests to the international media outlet, asking them to remember that the experience of Ukrainians and Russians in this genocide is not something that can be compared.
A foreign journalist asked me if I had ever felt real hatred towards Russians and dreamed of killing them one by one.
