My plan? I plan to live, if I survive. With my family, if they survive. In my city, if it isn't bombed into rubble. In a free European Ukraine, if we are accepted, and if we ever achieve a truly lasting peace.

😡Every day in Ukraine, we’re just trying to survive. We want to live — not die. Who will stop Russia? Nearly four years have passed, and we’re still running, still searching for safety, just trying to stay alive. Every day and every night, Russia continues its terror against Ukraine.
