with such a page in its history, this is a classic case of cultural trauma, ukrainians understood the pain , established who is responsible, created memorials to the victims and can now move on , the essence of work on social trauma is that society could move on, ukraine did a great job, while russia did nothing of the kind at all, and even i have not tried it in the west, it is in russia against ukraine, it is often called putin's war, what do you think about this terminology, what do you mean? unlike russia's war, this is a war the russian state against the ukrainian state. so this is the war of russia, what we are seeing now is not just a war that started now, but really revealed the russian imperialist culture of culture in the sense of the expression of all ideas and opinions of society. this is not the first invasion of russia into ukraine, it is something that is deeply

rooted in russian political, artistic, educational , social culture, this is not an accidental conflict - it is a conflict that is deeply rooted in the political psychology of russia and there is a big change in the way the world perceives ukraine, you can summarize what ukraine was like in the eyes of the world, first of all, in january, and what ukraine is now. i think that since 2014, the awareness of what ukraine is is growing. well, when i say that i was born in kyiv, they used to ask if it was in russia, that has changed, now ukrainians have turned into a nation of heroes for us it takes a lot of research to understand how it happened because it happened very, very quickly there are a lot of random things president zelenskyi is a great communicator in the end, people just see close-ups of zelenskyi who looks very human and putin who he always looks unpleasant and now he looks like he's

seething with anger, he looks like every hooligan, aggressor or terrible boss you've ever known, ordinary people don't need an analysis of international relations, they just see the truth, there are other things, ukrainians fight as a single family, a society that unites grandma and uncle soldier teacher everyone working together to win inspired many in a very fragmented world especially after the kovel epidemic also ukraine broke through this huge debate in the west between patriots and globalists and showed that this is a false division. ukraine is fighting democracy and human rights, and for patriotism and sovereignty. 75% of americans support ukraine. this is the first time since september 11 that there is such a consensus on any issue. ukraine reminded people of such much deeper social values , civil society, patriotism. but why are you

fighting for democracy and it made all these empty words real and it's incredibly powerful but it's not politics this is how to go from sympathy to long-term politics or russian propaganda and disinformation all that remains powerful i don't think disinformation is a problem it's a symptom in terms of propaganda and information games lost a lot of assets that they invested in for example germany some parts of central europe i think even in america the russians are playing bigger games with information and perception they resort to using nuclear threats nuclear blackmail blackmail blackmail energy blackmail they play these big games not small companies misinformation on twitter no one cares anymore now they are making us wonder if they will

use nuclear weapons what will be the effect of them using food as a way to blackmail the world who will be blamed for this it is all about perception it is all about information they are not winning as much as they would like but they are definitely setting the agenda it was an interview of tetiana vorozhko with peter pomerantsev, a researcher of russian propaganda, see the full version on the pages of the voice of america in social networks, and this is the end of it. thank you for watching voice of america in ukrainian see you next week, have a peaceful weekend, dad, join the community with a ukrainian view of the world, become a sponsor of the

disappeared again in the capital at the beginning of october. the child left a specialized medical facility in the podilsk district without the permission of the doctors. in the photo of the girl, she looks plus or minus on her 17 years, liberty is approximately 165 cm tall, she is thin, has long blond hair, on the day of the disappearance, she was dressed exactly as in this photo in black sweatpants with white writing on the left leg a black sweatshirt and a dark jacket with a pink lining if anyone has seen liberty bodnar does anyone know where she may be now don't delay and call us on the magnolia child tracing hotline on this number 116 000 calls from any the mobile operator is free or write to the chat bot of the child search service in telegram

, any information is important, i want to note that the story of this girl is very difficult and at the same time already quite well-known because liberty bodnar was in search for more than one and a half years, she disappeared for the first time in the capital in january 2020, then she was only 15 years old, her name is not very interesting, liberty, so she can sometimes call herself leika angelica, er, sometimes she can change her name to mrs. tetyana psychologist of the social-psychological rehabilitation center. children come here when their families have difficult life circumstances or the children themselves need help. this is exactly what happened to liberty, the girl first entered a special center back in october 2019 and ran away from there a few months later

the child was with us for a short period of rehabilitation, the work with her has only just begun, but there have already been many positive changes, that is, she has become more open, she has begun to communicate with caring adults, they gradually began to communicate with children , she is on vkontakte with other children, she is more selective, she keeps herself so comprehensive well they can do something there, they can draw, but with adults, what did the psychologists say at the time, liberty bodnar easily makes contact, she is very open, can communicate and even carry help, can apply very quickly with the help of adults around people and uh, be it a woman or a man, she can ask for help, so it is very important if this girl turns to someone to call either the police or magnolia because these girls really need help even then in the fall of 2019 in 2015, the

girl was admitted to the social and psychological rehabilitation center due to serious problems and needed special care after her escape. the search for the child lasted for more than one and a half years, and even in the summer of 2022, liberty bodnar managed to find the girl and found herself again in in a specialized medical institution, she stayed there again for about three months and again, according to some not very good tradition, the girl managed to escape from there, in communication with those around her, she behaves like an ordinary teenage child, so it is impossible to guess that she has some kind of disease. i know that liberty has mother and grandmother who also live in the capital, but where the child is now is unknown, and if you have seen this girl somewhere, or maybe she turned to you for help and you

know something about her fate, do not delay and call us on the hotline of the magnolia children's search service at the short number 116,000,000 calls from any mobile operator are free even a small piece of information about a missing girl can become very important, it is definitely necessary, a person must have some opportunity to get out of a difficult situation in some way and that's absolutely everything done correctly, it will be drinking water, that is, it will be water for drinking , providing a place for payment, of course, the situation, because you yourself know that now in ukraine there is a war and the enemy is poor , everything is possible, if, for example, we do not have electricity supply, i.e. there will be no

power supply for pumps and there may be interruptions with water, ukrainians do not give up either on the energy front or in the hot zone on the front line, and that’s how together we will win everything in our country for the time being, a traditionally quiet night to all of ukraine and especially to our defenders keep sleeping , our night watch is waiting for me, which i joined, and it will be interesting there, too. especially for those whose children study at school , good news for the new day and say good night honestly. how are you? oh my god, i promised myself not to cry hard so i'm starting to shut down i don't go out i'm having a hard time

the only thing that saves me is music my family my kids when i'm having a hard time i clean so our house has been very clean lately get ready to walk in circles focus on your steps and breathing choose a calming mantra and repeat it out loud or in my mind, for example, i arrived, i'm home, i'm here, i'm free, i'm alive, everything is fine, i'm safe, put this equipment in my first-aid kit, self-help, more here, real ukrainians are peace-loving, kind-hearted and sincere , so far they won't touch us, because if they go against us

through war, the nation will show the cossack character to live in peace. the greatest value is to win a victory in the cause of honor . the government of ukraine, in partnership with the un foundation in the field of the population, is expanding the work of centers to help survivors in settlements that will receive war victims. social workers, psychologists and lawyers will provide free and confidential consultations in the centers. you can get psychological and legal support, learn about humanitarian settlement assistance and social benefits, and experts will tell you how get medical help and, if necessary, provide

contacts of the necessary specialists, find out about the work and addresses of the centers on the 24-hour government hotline 15:47, as well as on the national hotline for the prevention of domestic violence , human trafficking and gender discrimination by phone 116-123 the gesture of the two-socket rule turned on a powerful the electrical appliance will turn off the equivalent, instead, the simple rules of a warm country, we will win the winter together, most of the events and heroic stories of this war remain for us closed, we read about them in social networks, we imagine how these or other events happened, but their details do not always remain mysterious for us to refute this theory, that is, to restore historical

and military facts to the smallest detail and turn it into comics, this is exactly what the heroes of our night watch broadcast today do why in the world are fictional marvel heroes when we have our own real superheroes, we are glad to see serhiy kolesnikov, editor-in-chief of the inter social comics project, on our air good day good evening, i will say frankly, i was personally very impressed by your project, not because you create comics, but precisely because of this. it seems to me that its main uniqueness and value is that you actually reconstruct events with historical accuracy that we only heard about in theory. there are already several dozen of you comics, this is the story of the seizure of the

reactors of the chernobyl nuclear power plant , which happened in the first days of the occupation of ukraine, yes, i will try the occupation, and you actually recreated what we could only somehow imagine and here we are now we will show the audience fragments of your codex and we want to ask you to tell us how it happens, i.e. when i saw that these pictures are not just made-up stories and or fragments of your artists. the inker's idea is to show documentaries through comics, that is, there are a lot of all kinds of events that happen in our lives, especially now, it means not simple times, when human eyes were the only witnesses of these events, and everything that can tell a person is just retelling them, he can't

attach photos of a video sequence to his story, and then um, well, in our opinion, this story comes out a little lame, and the audience has the right not only to hear, not only to read, but also to see this is exactly why we created the inker e-e. hmm, it was born as a human rights comic. that is, we made e-e different human rights stories e-e and precisely so that people could understand the entire depth of the story e-e told heroes of this history of these events ah, it's difficult enough to do considering the volumes we have to deal with, we publish four stories a month, one issue - that's four stories, it's more than 100 pages, that is, the book is actually sketched, but the story is emotionally complex. so, this is where you can

absolutely start the process of combining simple, complicated of an emotional story with a comic, er, you asked a very cool question. the fact is that in the general public, in ukraine, there is still a stereotype that a comic is something comical, funny, or superheroes, supermen, batmen spider-man and so on and so on although in fact it has not been like that for a long time uh and somewhere since the 50s in the west in the united states britain europe uh there is a whole direction uh including social comics uh which tell about real events through the eyes of real heroes, they often raise questions of some of these, you know, painful issues in society, problematic issues in society, there are comics that received police awards, for example, mouse is a comic about the holocaust , which was written by the son of a surviving person

who survived concentration camps eh comics are no longer entertainment content not only entertainment conde of course you can find comics for children or comics to laugh eh a lot of movies based on comics yes i don't know the same conan- a barbarian, and a bunch of others, a whole spider-man, and so on. marvel, it's all comics, first of all, comics, then movies, but now it's not only many years, not only, and thank god that in ukraine - it's also starting, that is the comic is starting to be not only about bright colors no - not only about entertainment, not only about heroes, but also about such social sores and unbelievable stories that happen to the people of chernobyl. we saw only one or two photos there. yes, in the photo of how russian

equipment is standing what was happening inside, we didn't know anything. how did you conduct the reconstruction of the events? who did you contact? what information did you consider important and what was unimportant when you talked to these people? how do we see the pictures inside the chernobyl nuclear power plant? how far are they? authentic er because it was like how it is like. here you look at chernobyl. in general, everything is depicted here with maximum accuracy because mykola contacted the team of that shift that worked this whole month of er occupation at the chornobyl npp there very very a dramatic story, they had to work one day, these people one day because the workload on these people is very high, but they stayed for a month and maintained the uh as in a state that is safe for the environment and the world in general for a whole month, that is, they were terribly exhausted and in

this is their heroism in fact, and when we contacted them, the head of the shift set one condition. he said that if i draw every word and every picture, you will agree with me , and already at the first stage, we understood how much an authoritative person and probably the occupiers had problems with him and that is how it turned out if you read the insurance documents. he very skillfully put them in their place there, in general, forced them to surrender as a game, forced them to follow the rules not to enter the premises that they were told not to enter. - he agreed, he was as if there were all the senior officers overseeing those unfortunate occupiers er-er usually we work in this way we conduct a large such in-depth interview in general which can take several hours it can stretch over several days in order to find out every detail because every

detail can be important precisely in the drawing eh hmm the heroes eh usually send us all the photos they have that they can send because it is still a regime object if we are talking about chernobyl or eh even if we don't have enough of some documentary materials, videos, photos , we often ask the heroes to simply draw , for example, the interior, with their own hands, how it looked , what, where, where, where it is allowed to draw , yes. well, i mean the exteriors , the location of objects on the territory, and so on , that is, what is open to the sources, part of which was directly sent to us by photos or drawn by the workers of that shift, the heroic shift that is there that is, i was here right here, in this case, it takes as much time as possible in the preparatory

process before the start, there are drawings , and how many people work on the project, and how many people are working on the project? contacts of the heroes of the ibrents lviv for journalists yes uh and he also writes uh he also writes a detailed report according to but on 50 pages about what where when how it happened what did it look like who stood where uh hmm in one or another scene and so on and so on transmits by the screenwriter, the screenwriter adapts, that is, this documentary report is actually in a comic format, because it is still not the end of the journalist, so this is an intersection, we call it something on the border between journalism and art, a task, adapt the screenwriter to the comic format and explain to the illustrator as clearly as possible what

should be drawn hm yes and how long does it last, it is transferred to the illustrator, the illustrator is already working on it, this is the longest stage eh, this is eh well , actually, how many days a month eh above one the story goes on for a month, one illustrator or team works, one usually works alone, but this is about one story, there are four of them in the issue, that is, four per month, eh, let’s count how many 8 + nouns, about 12 people, to be honest , i’ve never counted myself you translate all the questions into english because, well, this is a story, of course, of course, we translate it into english because we believe that such stories should be known by fans of comics, including ordinary people from abroad, and you know hmm the biggest the problem, including ukrainian literature

, we actually created an inker in order to appear on the shelves of european bookstores and to tell not only ukrainians, but also europeans about ukraine, so what is happening to the world audience , and the biggest problem turned out to be that there are not enough translators from ukrainian into the languages ​​of european countries , including those who could professionally translate from ukrainian, for example, into german, friends, if you are translators and you see our broadcasts, contact us. yes, you have a chance to find a job to join such cool spelling, that's why we decided to translate it into english in order to make it much easier to localize it from english to the languages ​​of certain countries . how did this project start? opened watched read e-e for free what do you plan to earn on is this some kind of grant project that is financed by our partners there and gives

the opportunity e-e exactly to watch it for free in ukraine yes it is e. currently this is a project that it is supported by er-e europe nedalenfa de macrosi er-e such a large european background that supports independent media e including in ukraine e but it is clear that no support can give them forever that is why e-e that is why we laid the english version as paid version and if the ukrainian version , all the numbers of the inker are present on our website in social networks. absolutely free, then for foreign english-speaking audiences, including us, you can buy our comics on the website or on amazon. and it is because of this that we think of monetizing and to support the project for swimming at the moment it's just a project for only six months
