00:00I am at the friend's house some hundred kilometers from Kiev. Decided to flee Kiev and it seems like it
00:09was the good, the wise decision because Kiev was harshly under missile attack today and still is. My friends are
00:16in the shelters at this very moment.
00:17Obviously, there are not enough shelters, but some people spend a night in metro. Luckily, our country, they built metro
00:28as a shelter already because it was built after the Second World War and the country was in the Cold
00:32War.
00:33So we were ironically quite lucky in that regard. Yeah, but not everybody could get in the shelter.
00:39So some people slept in their bathrooms because this is the general advice that normally bathroom is the safest place
00:48in your house because usually the bathrooms are built as far as possible from the windows.
00:54Get this piece of useful advice. And when there is bombing, so that you don't get anything from the window,
01:04you need to get to the furthest possible room in the house, which is as far from the window as
01:10possible.
01:11Were you preparing for this?
01:13The country was preparing for this. There was a lot of information circulating around what you do in the case
01:20of attack, how to how to pack the suitcase or the backpack for emergency backpack and what to do.
01:29A lot of people went to the medical training or pre-medical training.
01:35So yeah, it's not that we all prepared 100%. We didn't believe that this actually can happen to this extent
01:46because it's so absurd that this happens in modern Europe and we're quite lucky in that regard because I have
01:59work, I have money, I have my friends,
02:01and my friends from all over the world tell me that I can get and live with them, the problem
02:08is that it's very difficult to live the country now because I cannot live by plane and Poland opened the
02:17borders for Ukrainians so everybody can enter even without passports and I mean there are saints, but there are such
02:26long queues on the borders, so it's not really possible.
02:29People first went to the western Ukraine thinking that it's safer, but yesterday Russia bombed some strategic places in the
02:39western Ukraine, like we had a lot of military, different kinds of military bases in all over the country, also
02:46remains from some from the Soviet times.
02:49Some of these military bases were closed and reformed and so on, but they were still bombed, so either they
02:56didn't have actual information or it was a threat, like we can get you anywhere.
03:03People say now their plan is to get Kyiv and to divide Ukraine, so western Ukraine would be left for
03:09Poland, but going back to the Soviet empire time, to the Russian empire time, so the Russian empire wants to
03:16get its part back.
03:18And they want to get Kyiv.
03:20What's your opinion about the international reaction?
03:24America is amazing and Britain is amazing, they did what they could do individually, but the problem is that they
03:32cannot put sanctions to cut Russia from Sweden, because Italy and Germany are against it.
03:39And this is just, I'm saying hi to Italians and to Italian government for this.
03:49And I understand, well, I perfectly understand that each country is following its own interests.
03:55And I know that how gas is important, how it's important to live in the warm house, but you can
04:02also look at the people who are spending night in shelters, and they also want to live in warm houses.
04:07And we're all going to have to wait.
04:07And we're going to be on call to Ireland.
04:07Because.
04:07And we're going to be on time.
