Прерывая мое молчание, хочу поделиться несколькими мыслями о последних событиях в моей жизни. Истории будут позже, но сейчас -несколько наблюдений.
Недавно я давал интервью изданию BBC. Это был длинный разговор, связанный с боевыми действиями, и прозвучал прямой вопрос, на который дипломатично сложно ответить: достаточно ли делают «партнеры» для Украины?
Это глобальный и сложный вопрос, на который я хочу ответить своими ощущениями из города, где относительно спокойно, в отличие от прифронтовых территорий. Попробуйте представить мегаполис без электричества: светофоры не работают, в домах и офисах нет тепла и воды, а на улицах -темнота, туман, дым от прорванных теплотруб и пожаров с запахом гари. В этом городе безумный трафик и тревога, и картина становится более ясной.
Не читая новостей, я узнал, что МВФ выделяет Украине деньги, но при этом ставит условия -сокращать субсидии на коммунальные услуги. Это делает жизнь людей еще тяжелее. Никто при этом не предлагает сначала поднять зарплаты, пенсии и соцвыплаты до европейского уровня, как и оплату военных, чтобы не унижать их, я уже не говорю о пенсионерах.
Я не жалуюсь на холод или отсутствие электричества -мне повезло быть там, где есть возможность согреться. На боевых позициях, в замерзших окопах, этого нет.
Но просто собрать мысли и сосредоточиться на внутренних вопросах сложно, когда за окном вспышки взрывов, окна дрожат от ударных волн, и понимаешь, что происходящее от тебя никак не зависит. Я не описываю здесь, как города стирают с лица земли, а лишь делюсь тем, как это ощущается в городе, где проходят воздушные атаки.
Вывод прост: понять и полностью прочувствовать всё это невозможно. А спрашивать о том, достаточно ли помощи -не понимая, что вся эта ситуация продолжается именно с позволения этих «партнеров» -нелепо

I want to break my silence and share a few thoughts about what’s been happening in my life recently. The longer stories will come later, but for now, this.

Recently, I gave an interview to BBC. It was a long conversation about the war, and at one point they asked a direct question: are the “partners” doing enough for Ukraine? It’s hard to answer that diplomatically — it’s such a vast, complex question. But I want to try to explain it through what I feel here, in a city that is relatively calm, far from the frontlines.

Imagine a metropolis without electricity: traffic lights don’t work, there’s no heat or water in offices or homes, and at night the streets are dark. There’s smoke from broken heating pipes, fires, the smell of burning, fog, chaotic traffic. You start to see things differently.

I recently heard that the IMF has allocated money to Ukraine, but with new conditions — reducing subsidies on utilities. It makes life harder for ordinary people. No one talks about raising salaries, pensions, or social benefits to European levels, or paying the military fairly so they aren’t humiliated. The elderly are not mentioned at all.

I am not complaining about the cold or the lack of electricity — I am lucky to have a place where I can stay warm. On the frontlines, in frozen trenches, there is nothing like that.

Even just gathering your thoughts here is hard. Outside, explosions flash, windows shake from shockwaves, and you realize that none of what’s happening depends on you. I am not trying to describe how cities are destroyed; I am simply sharing what it feels like in a city under active air attacks.

The truth is: you cannot fully understand it, not unless you’ve been there. Asking if the help is enough — without understanding that the situation continues under the very permission of these “partners” — is absurd.

Living here, you feel the contrast every day: the relative calm of the city, the small routines you can manage, and the chaos that touches you even from afar. It makes you realize how fragile everything is, how small your control, and yet how necessary it is to simply observe, survive, and carry on.
