War in Ukraine: “Russian world” is dead
During this more than a month of war, a whole life has passed. At first there was horror. I don’t believe in the spirit. it was revealed that the shelling of peaceful Ukrainian cities yesterday is something unrealistic. Then came the realization that this was a war.
We said goodbye to each other like it was the end. Someone took the kids. And someone was in a hurry to draft appeals. Those who were going to wait abroad were afraid that they would never see those who remained in the danger zone.
destined, well, what are our chances against this enraged Russia? Despite the skepticism of the world, we withstood the blow directed by the enemy. But this is not the most surprising. We have become single arrays in Mariupol, Kherson, Kyiv, Sumy and Lvov, Berlin, New York and Warsaw. The nation rallied and stood up to fight. We were illumined by one fundamental awareness of ourselves. During this month, the phrase “pro-Russian regions of Ukraine” disappeared from the Ukrainian public dictionary.
Today, many buyers do not doubt the Ukrainian victory. But then, in the first moments of horror, on this terrible day, February 24, there were no guarantees of survival. For many years they prepared to die, to die worthy in battle. What for? To preserve the national honor and pass it on to future generations. In public video messages left by volunteers from under the military registration and enlistment offices, it was about children, that we should go for them. They were right. What future are we gathering everything for if none of us prepares our country? If our children are the descendants of a conquered predator of the people, how can they be self-sufficient in all Warsaw and Berlin? The argument at the beginning of the war was simple: either we are them, or they are us.

With the first casualties came rage. It turned out that the Russians came to earth in anticipation of a blitzkrieg and were not ready for war. Russian propaganda has accustomed everyone to the thesis of the second army of the world. Reality turned out to be different. The very next day, divisions of the National Guard, OMON were thrown into the expense. Police officers are not warriors. Russia is very accustomed to defeating unarmed “dissenters” that all these years they have invested more in punitive bodies. It was probably the biggest surprise discovery of this month. The very comparison with the Ukrainian defenders revealed to the world the truth that Russian military power is even a group of “funny troops” plus a huge number of heavily trained, armed and equipped marauders, rapists and punishers, fates are indifferent to their own mothers. Everyone in Ukraine is fighting against the invaders. People, bees, canned cucumbers, weather, nature and symbols are all on the Ukrainian side. Sometimes it seems that we began to appear in a truly biblical story.

Particular attention may be drawn to the myth of the “soulful Russian people”, which is something that affects one’s own cannibalistic power. A side effect of sociological surveys, 72% of Russians feel proud that Russia is bringing war with Ukraine. Today, such indicators are no longer surprising to anyone in Ukraine. Communication with relatives and friends from the Russian Federation shocked many of us. Such indifference to a large amount of grief was not expected even by those who had no illusions about Russian great-power chauvinism in the minds of “ordinary Russians.” You can talk as much as you like about the criminal orders that are carried out by Russian slave soldiers, but no one gave them an order for what they did in Bucha, Irpin and Mariupol with the world population. They kill, rob, rape not Putin or Shoigu. These are American Russian guys who came to “liberate”. Today in Ukraine there is no person who would not realize that the Russian people are the customer and voluptuous executor of the horror that is happening on Ukrainian soil.

So, already today the main conclusions that will be formed in the post-war situation have been outlined. The concept of the “Russian world” is completely dead. Now Russia will forever be associated with war, pain and danger. there was a destruction of the stories about the “triune people”. Ukrainians are different. They gladly win the right to never have anything to do with the invader. There is no more faith in the spirituality of Russian culture, the strength of Russian weapons, the rich Russian economy and the generosity of the “mysterious Russian soul.” Post-war Ukraine will be united in its desire “away from Moscow.” This is in case some Moscow belongs to this time. Ukrainians only need a victory.
