nearing its end and the military administration has little hope they will be able to help in time. perfect. you mind the roads and houses 1st. social facilities like schools in the things that are needed. so people come more or less walk around. normally we do the fields only after we've done that 1st with us, we're starting to he guesses it might take years for agriculture to get back to norma. meanwhile, the winter wheat is growing. alexander so did before the war. what we'll do or what always, sloan drones are with the field workers and where we see traces of vehicle news. my workers have been searching for mines with metal detectors. oh or so, but we need clearance for the whole field. we don't know what's lying in there and we'll have to wait for the mind sweeping team to confirm that the field is safe, livable. the consequences of this war will continue to be felt far and wide.

as ukraine has been feeding the world for decades. ah rushes neighbor latvia has a large russian community. most considered support is of putin. on may, 9th, the day of victory, as in nancy, germany, a quarrel broke out there a few cities in the former soviet bloc, which carry as many traces as of yet passed, as dull goth built in latvia with more than 90000 inhabitants. lottie, a 2nd to largest city has been considered a russian strong old until to day. every 4th barrister, living lot via is russian. this is the only city were russian speaking. people are, even in the majority most russians came to dog of bills during the soviet

era. off the vault were too many residents. he continued to feel culturally drawn to russia. some criticized that the latter young government because e 3 tobias to them to speak latvian, the official language even though many russians can't speak it though after brucely in buddhism, those habits city of the chilly language needs a linguistic environment to live in moore's mystic. a person must be able to speak if he can to create problems by at the more we want to let you have. everyone has, you know, so that live remains calm here, full of spa, coin. the divide here between russians and black vents is evident every year on may 9th victor, a day of a nazi germany. but while russians celebrate the day for many lottie, uncivil tor too also represents the beginning of soviet occupation this year or so . it is finally decided to cancel events because of russia's war of aggression in ukraine and move. some criticize on you. kirk. nice yasamin. surely of his

celebration isn't meant to humiliate the latvian nation, but we russians learn to celebrate this in childhood. we have it in our blood urine . it shouldn't be taken away the bra recently of the capital, riga, hundreds of people from lottery, us, russian speaking community protested against the russian invasion. and held a rally insular verity with ukraine. b. o, o, o. in the center of the latin capital russian speakers leading here wanted to show that they do not support that the policies of vladimir putin. oh . but not every one think so notes russian language journalist in that love aka a big part of russians believe the russian propaganda and stand behind put in. she says, oh,

she's thorazine and my ears. society is divided right now. i can feel that our communities are not united, and that scares me. this is a big problem for the security of our country. the system blocker says the linguistic divisions in lot of our fir, the separate people. and she believes that the responsibility lies with russians who want integrate, but she suspects rushes of warned ukraine could now change event. yet the question was to purchase the law. i thought only found very clearly that i am a part of this country at this family. it's a difficult admission, the good, but i don't want to be part of russia any more to be, even though it's the country whose language i speak. and i may have just see a response that has gotten models music in any case, the eternal flame at the soviet memorial in though gas bill cycle burn on victoria . he wouldn't without the official celebrations.

ah, more than 3000000 people have fled ukraine to poland since the war began. many whisp antennae as he taken in by people eager to help. one family in particular has been extraordinary. a small gesture of gratitude for yeskis hosea, it's become a daily ritual. ever since she took refugees from ukraine into her home, her family of 4 has been joined by 8 more people to have something buckley on that, as i suggest, that shaw saw. but i wanted to give this room to 3 people here, but then a driver arrived in the middle of the night with 8 took us without the children were coughing and the women started crying because they didn't want to be split up her coming. and i felt weak in the knees the bottom says, but, but i said yes, i'm good. no breath or spontaneous gesture has become

a long term solution. her family is exhausted, ordered for commissions, and even worked for years. not scott, for 2 months. i have not known what it's like to come home and just hear silence. no reminder. so maybe we need to get that slowly back to norma, but suppose i to let the good at mila her sister and a friend came from western ukraine with 5 children. melissa dean helpless makes them uncomfortable. august visits are using as a data. so you can see now lizzie, her lightly, her family from it's that they're used to being together. now suddenly having 8 people is very difficult. tell me that's good enough. i'm even ashamed that all of the work falls on a jessica and her husband, the the new. they buy everything them or when it's the food and everything we need for the children to buy a glass legit. okay. so, in order to help host families, the polish government wants to pay monthly grants of around $250.00 euros for refugee. but at miasca hasn't received any money yet. long mila

tries to earn some extra cash cleaning houses. yes, but you cannot afford her own apartment. was it? or was it though? and because of back i wanted that i have 3 children, many, even if i work as a single mom, it will still be very difficult for me because given the cost to poland, the government in warsaw is hoping for more help from the you can ask her would be happy if at least some money came soon, but she doesn't regret helping. many parents feel the same way and like the ukrainian guests, they hoped that the war will end soon. ah .
