Oleg Pryymachov, Ukrainian HMS in Thai boxing, champion of the country, Europe, world, World Games, spoke about Russia's military invasion on the territory of Ukraine.
“I still somehow can’t believe that this is happening to us. But this is a fact. This is a harsh reality. A bloody war has come to our house. You have to accept reality as it is. What can I say... I don't know.. Everything is so complicated and so incomprehensible.. In the sense that humanity has made such progress, and all disputes and conflicts of the ruling elites are resolved by the method of war. Not just wars, but wars between two once fraternal peoples in the past.
We have witnessed a grandiose propaganda, disinformation. And witnesses of how people's minds can be controlled. I personally had two good friends in Vladivostok. It was. Because during a recent conversation with one of them, I realized that it is impossible to prove anything to a person.
Many have relatives living there. I have a cousin. She questions the facts I send her. They don't believe my words. She proves her point. There are, of course, those who support. They go to rallies. But this, unfortunately, is not enough.
So much spirit, will and love for the motherland, like the Ukrainians, not many peoples of the world currently have. Few would make such sacrifices.
It turns out that the proverb “If you want peace, prepare for war” is true. Even if you remember the school history course, the Russians always oppressed us and tried to infringe on us somehow.
Looking at what our people are now demonstrating, I think we are doomed to win. With such people, with such solidarity, dedication, self-sacrifice, only victory!
