We taught Germans how to act in the first hours of a russian attack while they wait for rescue from the Ukrainian army. And I died.
My first visual exhibition took place this weekend in Stuttgart. Together with designer Iolanta Filenko, we created the concept of a “game.”

What the Ukrainian Armed Forces did tonight has no equivalent anywhere in the world. No city in any country could withstand a coordinated attack of more than half a thousand aerial targets.
People of the Baltic states and Poland, you don’t need to fear russia while we are the ones protecting you.

I received an award for volunteer service from the Commander.
It is a significant honor for our volunteer patronage service Teplonosii, which supports wounded soldiers in hospitals.
Receiving such an award from a high-ranking commander is a rare and very meaningful acknowledgment of our work.

Ukrainians want peace more than anyone else in the world. We are just afraid that this new plan will lead to an even greater escalation of the war. I don't want women in Poland and Estonia to have to fight on the front lines too. Help us protect Europe.

Ukrainian defenders are the same civil people as you and me. They took arms both voluntarily and forcibly at the same time: because it was their response to russian aggression.

We read excerpts from my texts about women’s experiences of waiting during the war at Literaturhaus Stuttgart, in German translation. Grateful to the team and translators for the care and precision. The conversation was sharp and honest.
More good news soon.
