Important read, long but worth it🙏🏻

I HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY MAD AT THE WEST FOR THE LAST 6 MONTHS...

Mad at politicians because they decided to treat ruzzia like a boiling frog at the price of the lives of the best Ukrainians. For the fact that there are still no F-16s in Ukraine and that we had to do our counteroffensive later than planned and without support from the air.

Mad at those ordinary Westerners who are "tired" of Ukraine, Ukrainian war, "inconveniences" caused by the sanctions (e.g. high utility bills). Who have never cared and will not care until ruzzian so-called soldiers will walk down the streets of their cities and villages.

I was also mad at some Ukrainian politicians who are not righteous and care about themselves only.

I was mad at "people" who earn money from this war: steal humanitarian aid and then sell it, organize fraudulent fundraisings in cold blood, manipulate with supplies for our Forces of Defense, our gods. Both Ukrainians and foreigners.

I was mad at Poles (those who did what they did) for doing a 180, being so aggressive to us and forgetting that they are the next to win this bloody lottery.

I was mad at Ukrainians for our internal fights about our war which get worse and worse.

I was mad at myself that I'm still in the city, not in the trenches.

I wouldn't say that I was mad at ruzzians. Because the feeling of absolute disgust is much stronger than hatred in me.

That's why I stopped posting my "Insights from the last week". They kind of stopped making any sense to me since these are the main insights I have for today, and they don't change every week. I'm at the stage of their acceptance but I'm not happy about it at all.

WE WILL BE THE NATION WHICH WILL BE FACING ALL OF THE FOLLOWING PROBLEMS FOR DECADES, IF NOT FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS:

1️⃣We are and will be the nation of people with amputations, serious permanent physical and mental health issues.

2️⃣We are broken from inside. Especially those who lost their beloved ones or home. Time doesn't heal these wounds.

3️⃣Women with children (refugees) will not come back after the Victory. Most of them. Thousands of couples divorced or will divorce.

4️⃣The best young men and women are dying every day. Many kids become orphans. Hence, there will be all kinds of the demographical issues connected to this fact.

5️⃣Everyone put their lives on hold. On a long-long hold. No serious decisions, no long-term planning. Not even month-long or week-long planning. This makes it impossible to build a house, to create a family. I'm 32 and if this war will last 10 years more (quite realistic), then I'll be 42 and it will be too late for many things (mind our patriarchal society).

6️⃣Many towns and villages no longer exist. Someone's childhood or youth memories were erased forever. It feels like a piece of your heart was taken out and torn.

7️⃣Kids who witnessed some atrocities or were victims of any attack but survived, will grow up and deal with the consequences for the rest of their lives.

8️⃣Huge economic crisis which is yet to come.

I'm still kind of young and I have a lot of love and care to give. However, from what I see in our society, it is almost impossible to create a family and have children right now. Families and serious relationships were put on hold. Together with long-term planning, new beginnings, new projects, dreams, new career opportunities...

I can't even sell my beautiful and posh land in Kyiv (I used to earn a lot of money in clinical research and my ex-husband used to earn a lot too) because nobody wants to buy land and build a house in wartime. Because once you build it, a ruzzian missile or drone will come and destroy it. I bought it for 135K USD. Now I can't sell it even for 53.5K USD. I need this money to have bread on my table, to keep donating to the Army, and to invest in my young start-up. But no. Thank you ruzzia.

I used to travel abroad at least once a year in 2022 and 2023. Today's Liza has become that person who doesn't have the desire to travel anywhere except within the country. Simply because of the solidarity with my people. They die in trenches. Plus, most civilian men are not allowed to travel abroad. I know it's only ruzzia's fault and not mine, but I want to be in solidarity.

I always say this to everyone openly, but I want to repeat it again. Even if Kyiv will be under siege, I'm not going anywhere. I'll be staying inside it, living, fighting, and volunteering. I'll live in Ukraine until I die and until it exists as a country. I lived abroad long enough to appreciate what I have here.

Last, but not least, I'm looking forward to the day when all of you will have no reason not to come here as our guests💙💛 To see the country in all its beauty and to see why we are still fighting for it so hard.

Glory to my beloved Ukraine!

Maybe I forgot about some of the consequences of the war. Let me know👇🏻

P.S. Even though I don't like borscht, I feel happy when I cook it for someone. Because I'm a true stereotypical Ukrainian housewife and even this war can't kill it.
