My country - Ukraine

I would like to tell you about my country. Ukraine is located in the central part of Europe. It is the largest country in Central-Eastern Europe. It's area is 603.6 square kilometers. In terms of population, Ukraine ranks eighth in Europe. It borders with Belarus in the north, Poland, Slovakia and Hungary - in the west, Romania and Moldova - in the southwest, Russia in the east and northeast. It is washed by the Black and Azov seas.

It is also famous for its fertile lands, the mighty Dnieper River, and the Carpathian Mountains. Her republic of Crimea is known for its famous resorts. Ukraine has a talented, hardworking and peace-loving people. Ukrainians are hospitable and treat their neighbors well.

Ukraine can boast of one of the most beautiful Slavic architectures in the world. From Carpathian wooden churches in the countryside to St. Sophia's Cathedral in Kyiv and the majestic Opera Hotel, Ukraine's historic buildings can enchant even the most discerning architecture critics. Here are some photos.

Such was my country... until February 24, 2022

On that day, Russia started a large-scale war against Ukraine. Look what my country has become

The actions of the Russian Federation during the Russian-Ukrainian war are characterized by special cruelty. These are targeted attacks on civilian objects, abuse, torture, mass executions, the creation of filtering concentration camps, constant looting, rape and heavy casualties among the civilian population, which have no military expediency.

The strategy of the Russian troops involves the commission of massive war crimes, is based on the use of massive artillery shelling and airstrikes on populated areas in order to intimidate ordinary civilians.

Russia ignores international humanitarian law, violates international rules of warfare, uses prohibited weapons, etc.

In addition, it is very important to note that since the first day of the war, rockets have been flying from the territory of the Republic of Belarus to Ukrainian cities and villages. I want every person on the planet know that Russia and Belarus are TERRORISTS. They are killing us 😭😭😭. We want to shout to the whole world to be heard. War crimes must be punished...

Please be with Ukraine, talk about Ukraine, pray for us..💙💛
