Sometimes we don't even know that we are helping. Of course, the Ukrainian media do not want this, but we must understand that the Russians are spreading this through our media, through Telegram channels. This panic has a wave of such an explosion, sometimes thanks to us. Everything has to be checked very carefully. All the details. No one can reassure us, we are at war, but we shouldn't exaggerate either
