Real life stories about russian war against independent Ukraine. Short war stories that the world needs to know. Ask your questions and get your answers. I am not a professional vlogger, but I feel UA-cam community needs more truth. Stand with Ukraine!
Thank you for your daily update Anna.
83 years ago today, started bombing of Helsinki.
We lost the war but kept our independence.
You will win this war, russia knows it and that's why they choose civil targets like a cowards they are.
Stay strong. Slava Ukraini. 🇺🇦 🌻 🙏
This Band of Criminals in russia have showed themselves for what they are: Callous criminals. Slava Ukraine!
Kudos to our brave Finnish friends...E...
Molotov said they're not bombing Helsinki, they're dropping food parcels. Wasn't that when you coined the term "Molotov cocktail" ?
Yes the whole world sees Russian regime👎 shameful
@@Lemieux_7 Yes, and targeting civilians and avoiding military target is not winning strategy.
This won't stop anytime soon, unless us, the west, provides Ukraine with long range missiles to hit Russian missile launch bases. Anna is right and I saw it already many months ago, anticipating this situation.
You are right! I wonder why Russia may fire rokets to Ukainia but Ukainia May not it do to the kremlin?
I agree, more pressure could also be put on Belarus to stop them from providing Ork troop staging areas.
I would go alot farther. I like to see Moscow's and St. Pete's infrastructure take some major hits. If Russia wants a war, give them a real one. It will be over real quick.
@@supertuscans9512 The economy in Russia will collapse by summer...you'll see.
Won't happen, unless nuclear or chemical warfare is introduced. Otherwise, it looks like America is attacking the Russian homeland.
Today I read the sad news that the body of the Ukrainian children's book writer Volodymyr Vakulenko was identified among the many found in the Izium mass graves.
He had been abducted from his home on 24 March, after he and his father were beaten up the previous day, probably by "LPR" terrorists. It appears he was shot with at least two 9mm bullets from a Makarov handgun.
Apparently writers of children's books pose a great threat to russkiy mir.
I offer my condolences to Volodymyr's loved ones and to all Ukrainians for losing another bearer of Ukrainian culture. He will live on in the stories he told.
The consequences for Russia are delayed but they will be unrelenting when they come. They even talk openly about the Hague on Rossiya One. Wishing you safety and nerves of steel Anna. Your strength and clear vision are such an inspiration. Slava Ukraini.
Justice is coming....
best comment I have read all day! Slava Ukraini.
@@supertuscans9512 time will tell...admittedly...the peace process as called in Northern Ireland is very flawed...I write this as an Ulsterman..that said..if Serbian and Sierra Leone war criminals can be tried and imprisoned..then why not the Russian Kleptocracy..?.. if not ...well we owe the poisoning criminal perpetrators of Salisbury..in a sense we have started by training UA forces on Salisbury plain...
@@eamonnclabby7067 I can see Zelenski, Shmyhal, Yermak, etc., swinging from the rope.
Good day Anna.
I as a American have started emailing my Senator to keep helping Ukrainian country.
The Senators are going to vote on a bill to set aside another 68.7 billion dollars for Ukraine military aid.
Praying for your family and country.
God bless Ukraine
God bless USA

it's 38 billion actually
@@gregadair9905 thanks for the update
russia invaded Finland today, 30th of November 1939. That was the beginning of the Winter War. At that time we were a nation of 3,6 million people. Against all odds we won. So will Ukraine and the victory will be glorious!
Anna, stay safel Our prayers are with you and all Ukranians. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦
Seconded
Thank you! ❤️ 🇫🇮 🇺🇦 ❤️
I have to read the book Winter War. I think someone said that everything that you want to know about russia now is in that book on the war it began with Finland in 1939.
Wasn't "Finland" a "country" that Russia invented?😃
Thanks Anna.
NATO should do more. Ukraine needs missiles with greater range, aircraft, more tanks, Patriot missiles, and much more air defence in general. *It's time to take the gloves off.*
Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
I think it's inevitable. If Ukrainian forces were authorized to target their missiles to hit *only* the involved Russian military bases and lines of Russian military logistics into Ukraine, safely avoiding any civilian population centers, this would bring the end of this war much closer.
Definitely. It's all that whining coward in the Kremlin will understand
and nuclear weapons too

Greetings from Canada. We appreciate your posts every day.
Hi Anna, economist here. The sanctions will work and will be devastating. Unfortunately though they take time. They are only ever supposed to be a part of the solution of course but the damage that’s coming is genuinely going to shock people once it all filters through. Russia had a huge amount of foreign currency reserves to insulate themselves but that’s almost all gone now. Once that is gone they have absolutely no way of funding anything. Nobody will lend them anything and they can’t import anything. It will continue to look as if nothing is really happening and then it will hit overnight. It’s just like any economic disaster like the 2008 financial crisis - on the Monday all is well but by the Friday the whole world is screaming. Same thing is coming, it just needs maybe 6 more months
6 months is a long time to be bombed and watch family and friends die. 6 MORE months? Is there any way to accelerate the effects of the sanctions?
I think they’re partially insulating their war machine by not paying the soldiers. These are signs that things aren’t going well…
I agree
Well put, Luna Chu....
I REPEAT: Russia DEFINITELY rates a response beyond sanctions to move them to withdraw their attacks. Doing the SAME thing and expecting different results is a fool's choice. Ukraine is OWED reparations for damages and the CRIMINAL actions of Russians need appropriate justice imposed.
Dear Anna, Thank you for keeping us updated and persevering through this terrible time for Ukraine. My prayer is that the West will continue to work together, united and follow your example. The Ukrainian people have taught us much about the importance of making sacrifices, and we know the needs are great.
Stay safe! 🙏🏼🌻🇺🇸💛💙🇺🇦🌻
There are places you can spend things or money for Ukraine, just want to remind all who are watching Anna.
Is there an old Mr. Heater in the garage e.g. you do not use, some money to spent to a known organisation. It could be the mass of people who have a little bit to give and help that would make a difference.
But only good worthy things, do not get rid of clothes you do not like.
🙏🙏🙏🇺🇦💙💛🌻🌻🌻 SLAVA UKRAINI HEROYAM SLAVA 🌻🌻🌻💛💙🇺🇦🙏🙏🙏 Anna have Faith, all will be well in due time, keep preparing, tell your mom thousands of us pray for you both daily. Please listen to your intuition & obey it, especially when it make no sense or contradicts plans, commitments, & logic. Oh how I love your beautiful mind & even more beautiful Spirit. VICTORY DAY WILL BE GLORIOUS GIRL🧚♀️😘💯👍
The suffering of Ukrainians breaks my heart, and I hope that the Governments in the west can supply all of your needs.
I also wish that the population of Moscow and St Petersburg will shiver in darkness this Christmas
Word has it that the thinking of the military establishments of Western countries, including the U.S. Pentagon, is evolving. To date, Ukrainian forces were supplied with Western missiles attached to conditions that they were not to be targeted to Russian territory. That, I believe, is beginning to change out of necessity. It's *quite possible* that Western suppliers of weapons would give the okay to allow their supplies, including missiles, to be used *only on military targets* in Russia, particularly the Russian military bases involved in this conflict and the Russian lines of military logistics. It is suspected that such a pivot in strategy would end this war *much more rapidly.*
The Ukrainians have been fighting with one arm tied behind their back to a degree. Yes, targeting Russian military infrastructure is fair game if you ask me.
The UN and NATO definitely can do more and should do more, people around the world need to keep the pressure on governments to do more for the Ukrainian people, Stay warm and safe Anna, Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦 🇬🇧 ❤
Speaking about keeping up the pressure... The last little while I’ve been trying to wrap my head around this (and it’s actually really starting to bother me now)...
And this is all about the lack of people online so much as even talking about what is going on in Ukraine in any sense or from any viewpoint?!?
I mean, there’s literally only about 10 people on UA-cam here that are actually known to the world (and not widely known) who are coming on regularly and describing what is happening in all the various places and with different angles of this war against them!! I’m shocked that there aren’t more individuals like Anna, Denys, the guy from Insights, even Starsky (though he’s a military press officer)! Even the few others are from elsewhere in the world! Like what’s wrong with that picture?!? You would think in this day and age and with all of these people suffering under such barbaric conditions that they’d be screaming out all of this to the world so that it absolutely must be known by far more people...
It’s just not right and very strange when I think about it.
💙💛 *VICTORY* *FOR* *UKRAINE* 💙💛
Thank you for your daily updates Anna ~ unwavering support from your all of your loyal friends around the globe! 🌎
Add me to the list...
Hi Anna, sanctions do work but it takes time. If you want a Lada order it now and you will have it in 2035 without electric windows because the chips are not supplied anymore. On top off that longer range missiles are coming to Ukraine and above that the patriot air defence system will also be supplied. Stay strong and safe, victory is on it,s way. Slava Ukraine!
Long range weapons. To shoot back at where you're being shot at from. Ukraine needed them 9 months ago. I hope Ukraine gets them soon.
Hello Anna. I have been worried about Starsky. Haven't heard anything from him in over a week now. I hope this war ends soon. I don't know how to get rid of Putin and his generals. Please tell us how the ordinary people can help to accomplish this. I'm in Canada 🇨🇦. I wish we could do more to help. Please take care of yourself and your family. And know that we are doing everything we can to help you. Thank you Anna, Ukraine will win this war. I'm sorry for all the lives lost, it's unimaginable in this day and age that Russia has done this. I send my love to you and your family and friends. Stay safe and warm. Ty
Starsky has posted on his Community page recently. Today as well as 4 posts yesterday. It has been a while since he posted a video. I think 4 days since he posted one from Bucha. Ukraine needs longer range weapons.
Starsky has wrote some posts, those are not always show on mobile.
There are many things you can do to help them. Search around. ✌🏼
@Johnny H Johns Community posts show on phone youtube app but not on tablets. That's why only few people see Starsky's messages. Normally it's easy to find a reason for a problem by using google but this is something I can't find. It's as if they have hidden the answer.
@@pacifist9805 Yea, that whole thing is annoying AF... Screwtube is bad on a good day, but it’s crap like this that just makes you say wtf?
Stay real and strong Anna. I wish that some people in this world were more transparent, we wouldn’t have things quite like this happening. Your country will win this war. It’s disturbing the cost you are bearing for it. The utmost respect and best of wishes from Texas🇺🇸. 💪🏼🇺🇦✌🏼

You are right.
Im so sorry that people even here in Finland doesnt seem to understand what are you fighting against.
Two weeks and I will be back in Lviv with winter gear.
Would you be able to take some EcoFlow power stations and a generator with you? Lutsk is not far from Lviv. Orest Zub lives there and could take the boxes. We could raise money for several devices if you have room in your car.
Vielä näkyy muutamia laitteita varastossa, mutta nopeasti pitäisi toimia.
So sorry what the Ukranian people have to go through this moment. The west absolutely should do more.
Anna stay safe and stay warm.
Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇬🇧🇬🇧
Pryvit Anna, the impact of this war and the crimes involved are hitting home to Russia. I know it is hard for you now there is a difficult winter ahead but I cannot see the Russian army surviving the winter. There is going to be turmoil in Moscow before spring. Hope you are in a positive happier mood today? You are looking amazing (as usual!!!)
Thank you Anna. I do hope Ukraine gets missiles that can hit the bases in Ryazan and Saratov, where air launched missile armed orc aircraft operate from. Your English is superb, and I am pretty sure you are making this eloquent update from the heart, with no script. Incredible ! You are always so calm and immaculate ! I can't imagine how you manage in this war. I wish you and all Ukrainians a safe time and relief from the barbarians very soon. SLAVA UKRAINI !
Amen Anna! Good analysis. I love the fire in your convictions!
Sorry to hear about Volodymyr Vakulenko. Best wishes...
You make good points, Anna. That is why I like listening to you, daily.
Please hang on. History will show this to be Ukraine's finest hour.
This is exactly why I think capping their oil/commodity prices is the way to go. Only younger and/or wealthier Russians noticed any effect from sanctions while it's the older generations screaming in favor of their stupid war.
As long as the older generation has pig fat and potatoes, they think life is good.
Until your 60 year old dadushka gets mobilzed to go drive the T-62 he drove in his youth.
Stupid is the right word....
I wish you could stand before our new Congress next January and say these exact words!! I have gotten my new Representative interested in following your vlog! I will get other politicians interested, too. You are so good at doing these vlogs that you definitely get peoples attention! It breaks my heart thinking about you and your fellow Ukrainians suffering so much. I think like the post below says, "It is time to take the gloves off"!! Please stay safe and I admire your strength!!
Heróyam sláva!, Anna. I pray 🙏 each day that Putin is sent before GOD as soon as possible, to explain his crimes! I also pray 🙏 everyday for the Povna peremoha Ukrayiny! Be safe my young friend, sincerely yours from Sir Richard & Evie Dog 🐕.
I am sorry that the world is not yet saying "No. This is wrong, and it ends now." I will keep contacting my government and telling them that we should end this Russian criminality now. Slava Ukraini!

Your frustration is valid and the message is important. So many in the west wring their hands and say supportive things but in truth don't want to be too involved and worry about making Russia mad. This one can't be won sending candles, blankets and smiles. Ukraine and the nations closest to Russia, who have experienced Russian influence for decades are the only ones equipped to inform the world what needs to be done to meet Russian aggression head on. Slava Ukraini.

Struggle on-and you will conquer!
God is helping you!
On your side is truth and glory
And the sacred freedom!

It’s disgraceful that Ukraine haven’t been given long range missiles that can target Moscow / St Petersburg. NATO and the west need to step up and give Ukraine the ability to win quickly.
Little man you don't want to hit St Petersburg or Moscow but you do want to hit inside Ukraine deep inside Ukraine where they got all the weapons that but hitting inside paint St Petersburg Russia is not going to make it any better for Ukraine it going to make it worse then they are going to use nuclear weapons she's nervous and she's upset she wants that she wants the sanctions to work now right now it's not going to work like that it takes time they'll they have at the head like what 600 billion dollars in foreign reserves and the United States took away 300 billion of that it's almost gone the other 300 band is almost gone he's taking almost a whole year for the sanctions to work you got all the way up to December January probably until February before it really hits once it hits if they are going to stop because they don't have the money they have no more foreign reserves they are winning the war she going to have to hold on for a little bit she's worried about some mental attack and Ukraine is going to get the go get the new Patriot missile system she just got to hold on the country is word nobody is not leaving Ukraine
I agree wholeheartedly 💯. They should take their short-range missiles close to the border and fire them from there into Russia. 🤔
@@gregoryking8574
Little man. Ukraine should be hitting critical infrastructure in Moscow and St Petersburg, this will force Russians to take their anger out on Putin. Russia needs to feel more pain for their disgusting war. Ukraine should be given long range rockets.
Targeting civilian population centers are a war crime! As Russia is doeing now.

Much love and 🙏 to all of Ukraine stay safe and strong from the US
"They" won't stop, but they are slow. Slava Ukraini.
I'd hate to say it, but the orcs are being very strategic and smart when it comes to their missile strikes. They know they have a limited amount of missiles, so they are going to sit tight and wait and only launch their missiles when your power and water infrastructure is almost fully repaired. This gives the orcs more "rubble for their ruble" so to speak."It's simply cost efficient, a sound tactic. It seems we in the West just give Ukraine enough military support to virtue signal " we did our part". I am in the military and have been for 22 years, this war has exposed how bad orc tactics, senior leadership, mid level NCO leadership , combined arms, and equipment really are. Russian military doctrine is bad..really bad. We are realizing they are not ten foot tall supermen. Yes, military aid should be increased, I can tell the frustration in your voice. Putin won't stop until he is afraid of his own people, however the Russian people just go along and stay out of politics, the Iranian women need to teach the Russian population at large. how to have let's say, cajones...
Good to see a light on in the background!

It needs finishing off quickly, this is the only way with murdering bullies . We have the ability. It does not matter what happens after that. We have to save as many Ukrainian lives as possible now. That is all that matters. I am sorry Anna. Kind regards Rich
I told you yesterday that Hungary, in EU is blocking aid of 18Billion Euro to Ukraine, and see`s today that Hungarian President visits Kyiv 🤨.

Wish all the luck, - peace and happiness to all Ukrainians 👍
Every week I write to President Biden asking him to send more and more weapons to Ukraine 🇺🇦. There is a new large package coming up this month. I'm sure it will pass. I still want them to do more, send more, send more potent weapons NOW! More NOW!
India and China among other countries actually support Russia in this horrible war. That makes western sanctions less effective unfortunately.
They don't "support" as so much as being neutral and non compliant with sanctions. But even then, they're wary of being included in the sanctioned list.
I feel so angry they're allowed to get away with these atrocities. Change takes time, they say but how many more Ukrainians have to die before we say enough is enough. It's madness to send more weapons only after seeing yet another horrific attack, or seeing places like Bucha.
Several sources said that Puter stashed a pile of money before the invasion (USD 600 BN), and predicted that they’d be able to carry on for years. Well that appears to be true. NATO needs to escalate before Puter even figures out what’s going on. I’ll try writing a letter to my state reps/senators. Can’t hurt. ❤❤❤
it takes a week for the Russian Orcs to sober up enough to find which button to press again
Stay strong! In those days of "pause" You need to strengthen your defences, find alternative ways to relocate or hide those key infrastructures and emplace anti-air defenses... I know it is difficult, but also the sanctions will work: they take time, sadly, and this is also why Putler is So desperate to demoralize and scare You with those terrorist attacks... You need to stay strong: that madman had all of this prepared since a long, long time, so it is natural they have some stocks, but they are NOT infinite!!! Stay strong!!!
Pryvit Anna, Big Obijmaiu to you Diakuyu for the update !!! 🇺🇦💪❤️🙏🇺🇸🌹💐🌼🌺🌸🌻 !!! Dear Teacher 👍✌️ !!
I completely agree with you about the indifference and inaction of politicians in the West. I even think you're too polite and nice. It's time to finally say that Germany is the Kremlin's political base in Europe. When I hear that in Germany, in France, in the Benelux countries, the authorities are tired of the war in Ukraine, it pisses me off. They haven't even helped yet and they're already tired. What are they tired of ? The fact that fuel is more expensive, that coffee is more expensive ? Let them sit for a few days without electricity, water and heating, or in a trench near Bakhmut. What slimy and stuffed worms. It's all reminiscent of Munich in 1938. When the most prosperous countries (Great Britain and France) tried to appease Hitler, at the expense of Czechoslovakia. Winston Churchill On Neville Chamberlain, shortly after Hitler's infamous "appeasement", September 29, 1938, Munich: “You were given the choice between war and dishonour. You chose dishonour and you will have war.” May the world be wiser this time. Bandits and criminals understand only the language of hard power. Do not try to appease the criminals, you will certainly fail. If Ukraine didn't fight, it would no longer exist, and all Ukrainians remaining alive would sing the ruzzian anthem. This did not happen, because the Ukrainians put up a stiff resistance and destroyed the ruzzian army. Entire.
If more people were taught about Chamberlain and his appeasement of Hitler, there would be a much stronger response to Putin right now by the west.
Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
In war the enemy always tries to get to you mentally where you can not think right
Hello Anna , you must try to remain calm even though things are difficult. I know it is easy to say when you are not there. It is time to draw strength from your ancestors of the last thousand years. They went through much more difficult times. I have been researching Ukraine's history, you have some very tough and clever leaders and your current president is outstanding so don't let the orcs rattle you. You will win, there is fractures starting to appear in the Russian economy. When it goes into freefall it will be very quick. regards Wally
Anna, Thanks for the updates,the usa needs to stop worrying about Russia escalating and give Ukraine long range missiles
Thanks anna agree 100%

Diakuyu, Anna. This war tears me up inside. There is not anything that I can do to help you. My heart goes out to you. I feel so inadequate. Diakuyu for your efforts. Hang in there. Take good care of yourself, please. All the best regards to you 🙏 Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦👍
As far back as Classical times the moneylenders have been pivotal...but then so is democracy, however flawed....the ethical duty to withstand tyranny seems intact judging by Elena Zelensky s, aadress to parliamentarian representatives yesterday...here in the UK, we stand with Ukraine....E....keep safe and well over there...
The answer to why sanctions don't work effectively is complex, but the main reason is that they were prepared for them. Their average oligarch controls many off-shore structures, in normal times he used them to launder money and now to buy banned goods and technology.
Also, NATO and EU decisions are based on voting and one member on the southwestern border of Ukraine is strongly in favor of the pootin and is trying everything to slow down all negotiations, voting and the processes that follow.
For this reason, the Magninsky Act was approved by Chamber of Deputies of the Parliament of the Czech Republic in October this year. This new law can help us sanction individuals or organisations that for some reason have not been on the international list. I know that this law will not change anything in Ukraine in the coming weeks, but it will weaken their local helpers.
Thank you Anna. Praying for your safety and ability to continue posting. Agree, russians outside of Moscow and St. Petersburg probably are not used to many luxuries or choices, including food. No doubt those in rural areas preserve their food for use in the winter months.
Thank you for your message, Anna! I continue to gain value and understanding about the war from your streams. It seems to me that Ukraine must keep on fighting for its freedom from the unjust Russian attack until they simply leave and return to the 1991 borders. What would cause the Russians to leave? I shared my view of this with another UA-cam vlogger I've been following for a couple of years. Maybe you know of him. His name is Konstantin Samoilov. His channel, Inside Russia. He's not in Russia anymore but went to Uzbekistan when mobilization began. He's been to Ukraine, worked in Ukraine, lived Ukraine, and likes Ukraine. He opposes his country's war in Ukraine vehemently. He recently did a stream about the "Z" people in his country to help people understand this phenomenon. He's despondent about the future and I told him that I feel the only solution is for the young people of Russia to speak up and force a change in their government and end the war. I also told him that my hope was that you and he could at some point in the future have tea at a cafe in Lutsk and discuss how to create better relations between your two countries. Слава Україні!
I have shared it to LinkedIn, that is to 11000 contacts in UK regards Rich
Maybe you could recite a beautiful Ukrainian poem that you learned from your childhood? That would be nice to hear very calming.

Anna, your unwavering confidence is really inspiring! Molodets! 😊
We keep buying Russian oil, which is pathetic. In December the ban on oil shipped in tankers starts - if it is seriously implemented, Russia ll start having problems with money.
Wish you well Anna .
You remain beautiful inside and out in the face of cruelty and barbarism.
When Russia annexed Crimea in 2014, they broke the treaty set out in Budapest in 1994 between Russia, the United States, Great Britain, and Ukraine. That treaty insured Ukraine's security and territorial integrity in exchange for Ukraine giving up its nuclear stockpile. However, the UK and US broke it as well because they were signatories guaranteeing Ukrainian security. US and British troops should have been on the ground in Ukraine after Russia annexed Crimea to enforce the 1994 Treaty.

The only solution for Ukraine until antimissile defense is improved is to decentralize all utilities as much as possible. Tens of thousands of small,
I agree, the West should be supplying Ukraine with longer range weapons. Expecting Ukraine to fight only within it’s own borders will allow the war to continue for years. If Russia is in effect a ‘free’ zone, why would they stop?
spot on Geoff.
Pryvit!
Great video Anna.
The message below is for the people posting nonsensical solutions to this horrible conflict.
It's real easy for non-Americans to say "send longer range weapons that can hit Russia."
Putin is unstable, and backed into a corner. Sanctions take years, not months to work, but they do work.
I live minutes away from the 2nd largest US Navy base in the United States.
Three nuclear aircraft carriers are visible in the bay. The west coast nuclear weapons stockpile is here. The US Marines west coast base is 40 minutes up Interstate 5 from my home. The US Seal base is here. Point Loma nuclear submarine base is here. San Diego is a major military manufacturing hub in the US.
We are at ground zero. I personally am not interested in being nuked, or disabling the United States west coast military forces if Putin launches nukes.
Smarter men than I are managing this military dance on a razor blade.
It is a delicate balance between saving Ukrane, which we will do, and stopping a mad man from starting WWIII.
Let these men manage the situation. They trained all their lives for situations like this.
Without the U.S. NATO will fall. If NATO falls, Europe will fall.
Those in the peanut gallery that are not in Ukraine, should have some patience.
No one on earth wins in a nuclear war.

Sanctions against Russia have long term effects: they are extremly efficient, but need time: example, after Renault stops all in Russia, the russian automobile industry is quasi destroyed...the sanctions from 2014 after invasion from Crimea did stop the modernisation from russian armaments, this explain why they not have lot of T14 armata tanks and SU57 and 75 who need lot of western technology; even some modernisation on T80 and T90 tanks need western equipments, and all the ruzian civilian aircraft and space ndustry is heawy impacted from the sanctions...And for the energy (gaz and petrol,) now, the western countries found new supplyers and does not need Russians energy exports, the only bad effect is the rise from the prices, but it's only partialy caused from the 2022 ruzian invasion, the most is caused from speculation...

Privit Ana, The suffering of Ukrainians breaks my heart, and I hope that the Governments in the west can supply all of your needs.
Since Day 1, February 24, 2022 Ukraine asked for the sky to be closed. Here we are 9 months later. 😢 I hope Ukraine gets the Air Force & missile defence it needs. Russia’s merciless bombing is such a crime. Slava Ukraini 💙💛
Pryvit, Señorita Anna, the calm always come before the storm and it’s always calm in the eye of the hurricane… “one orc said to another: I see a light at the end of the tunnel… second orc responded: turn around and run!! The Ukrainian Express just entered that end as is coming full steam ahead”…🫣
Sorry bad joke…. keep your spirits up, stay safe, healthy and warm along with your family and friends…
SLAVA UKRAINE, HEROYAM SLAVA 🫶🙏🇺🇦🐈⬛
