According to her, Russia is consistently trying to destroy Ukrainian culture, history, and identity, so the relevance of this topic is only growing.
The shelling on New Year's Eve is a vivid proof. Ukrainian children abducted by Russia are being forced to forget their own history and language. This is an attempt to steal our future

No matter how hard the Russians try to erase the identity of Ukrainians, their attempts will always be in vain, because we are different: we value and cherish our language, history, and cultural heritage. Even in extremely difficult times, we use every opportunity to ensure that Ukraine is not only remembered, but also spoken about by the whole world
