unbreakable free for the holidays one wish victory as if from a long power outage prepare products that can be stored for a long time without a refrigerator keep products from the refrigerator on the balcony, if possible, can make reserves of hot water in thermoses for preparing fast food, get ready now, let's defeat the darkness together, for me, sport is a tool for achieving certain goals, and recognition is one of those goals and now i use recognition in order to convey certain

of my civic positions to the political and public sphere, no matter how difficult it may be . and i have not heard any whining or complaining from anyone. but how difficult is it going to be? no , i still say a lot. please, from the beginning of the full-scale invasion, every famous ukrainian in one way or another was looking for his place in this entire history in the new reality, looking for how he could be useful, how was this process, this challenge was happening to you, how are you on i just knew that i had to do what these people are doing, work for a common victory, and accordingly, i was looking for my place in all that, i am a soldier under a contract . therefore, from the very first day, from the very first day, when the war started, he arrived at the

military base and, accordingly, the first place was practically there, and they lived there. well, they waited, waited for the team, like other athletes, the soldiers waited for orders from the higher command, that is, while we were there accordingly started at the military base to volunteer in order to, at least in some way, join the support of our er military, well, that's when the idea arose to sell an olympic medal, collected funds , used my instagram to inform a foreign audience about what is happening in our country something like that, then when there from april to may, it was a little better, the situation evened out, stabilized, then i went back to training. so we started preparing for the european championship and then the world games this year, so what kind of attitude did you feel in different countries towards that situation

which occurred before this war before the need to help our country well, the first place - it was generally a boom uh, so many notifications of calls i have never received well, absolutely all but two countries understand how they are understood which they simply refused and the rest very actively expressed their support they threw some reports here in the first extra month, there were so many interviews. well , i also have the same experience with foreign media, and a lot of japan was interested in the events in our country, and only in the japanese media did i give about 10-15 interviews, and cnn bbc ah, these are the ones there were also huge media crowds, well, people cheered for us, well, everyone was already in shock from that situation and cheers to this day, and even how we arrived. our

national team for the world games clearly shows everything because when at the opening of the world games the team went to the stadium here, the stands , the stadium rose and we were applauded, we were greeted by our team in this way, expressing support, how does it work in general. this is sports diplomacy because there are athletes who are immersed in the process, so to speak, competition, training competitions, training. they try not to express themselves on some socially important topics, they are closed somewhere in their own microcosm , but there are athletes and many of them in ukraine, and you are among them, who, since the beginning of the war, immediately started very active activities. sports of any position, this is a matter of civic position, and i, as a citizen of ukraine, of course, i support er for our people, for our country, i try to help and support er in all possible ways, my visibility on my

social network is, in principle, one of the tools which i use in order to convey some information about what is happening, this is one of the ways to oppose that russian propaganda, this is informing, so i use it to inform people about the situation in ukraine, that we need help to collect some resources, well accordingly, use it as intended, but this is an individual issue, we have different people who are silent, who speak out for ukraine, and who speak out there in some other way, but very ambiguously, but listen until 2014, several you were hated many times because you gave master classes in russia, so somehow your attitude has changed now towards this slogan sport outside of politics, and don't you think that there was a huge

manipulation embedded in it from the beginning, which crept into the territory of ukraine and which in one way or another sounded here it was invested in the brain, although well, we understand, especially now, that there cannot be a sport outside of politics, and karate is a huge multimillion-dollar community where you are the winner of the world games, the champion of the world games, the winner of the olympics, the winner of the world championship, that is, an absolute star indisputable and you have the opportunity to once again make your voice decisive. you are an example for a huge number of people, for young karate fighters , including uh, i gave another answer to this question, with such a certain narrative, it means everything is so clear uh, for people who are used to consuming information very simply, then of course there is one context and the context of either white or black and in this regard. on the public level of course, sport is a political tool, the state also

finances sports in order to position itself on the international arena, popularize its brand, its name as a brand and, accordingly , increase the level of influence. but on the other hand, it is the same and ordinary activity as a journalist as teachers as doctors as anyone else and there is no politics if we are talking about the public sphere it is politics and for me sport is a tool to achieve certain goals and recognition is one of those goals and now i i use recognition in order to bring to the political and public sphere certain of my civic positions, not sports, but civic actually, because i am for ukraine . i know that you came to the liberated kherson. what did you see there? what are your impressions of kherson? you have very

vivid impressions. infrastructurally it suffered a lot, it’s a pity for the people who left this city, it’s a pity for the people who stayed there, it’s just this small piece of support for some people or the military, in fact, it’s such a small contribution, and i understand how much work still needs to be done there, and i don’t i know where all the resources should be taken for this. well, this question is somehow from the state level, but what struck me was the positive attitude of all the people and those who remained there and the military, no matter how difficult it was. and i have not heard from anyone what whining, complaining. but how hard is it going to be? no, i still say a lot. damn, we will win. well, ukraine here is finally very much about ukrainian and very positive. well, with

vera, really, with vera, people are so inspired that they say, you communicate with them. you understand in those people are fine, in fact, you also visited mykolaiv, which was under heavy fire for a long time. of the artillery brigade a-a or since the beginning of the war, e-e, the founders of our foundation have been helping that brigade for a while, they are also people from the korotyka community, i understand correctly , and the ukrainian karate federation acted as the founder and the previous president of the ukrainian federation, serhiy levchuk, and the founder of the wild race . in obstacle races ruslan klymenko and the museum of the formation of the ukrainian nation and the founder valery galan, here we are , at first he was not just each separately engaged in some kind of volunteer activity. and now

we decided to combine our efforts to create fund and, accordingly, we are now engaged in all this together. well, we went again to carry out certain requests from the brigade, and they , as a sign of gratitude, gave us a very cool artifact like this. well, it’s just historical . the mines of the neptune rocket that sank the cruiser moscow, there are only two such things, and one of them, uh, was transferred to our fund, and it’s a very special thing. it the volume of resources is going to be transferred in order for them to have the opportunity to feel better and have little to fight for. so they gave us this cover as a token of thanks. listen, well, this is an exclusive gift, unique

in its own way. i think that it is not even in a museum. no, it is possible in the future of the museum. and now it could be sold at an auction for a high price. we didn't think about it. we are thinking about it . we don't have any plans yet because there are more priority issues. there are a lot of requests, and in principle, about the cover, well, it's an artifact . -m before even if we we will organize an auction for the first time. if it is now in the museum, everyone who wants to can come and take a picture, touch it, touch it, i don’t know, remember the desire, well, it’s a kind of magnesium for the museum, too. i think that many people wanted to see, so to speak, even this cover, so who is involved in of a historical event, i think that the cover is special , it has its own energy, because i still understand the history of what is behind that cover , how did this missile launch happen, how did

this cruiser sink, under what conditions, well it's really cool. well, the emotions that arose after this event also after the sinking of the moscow cruiser, because it seems to me very strong, it's very strong, it's very symbolic. but this was the first such turning point, especially at sea, that is, a country with a huge fleet suffered a huge defeat . from a country that does not have a fleet in principle, well , the whole world knows about this cruiser and everyone knows how he blackmailed among the snakes that the ukrainian military answered him this is a very cool story. finally, i want to ask you how you see ukraine after victory, will our country change, will people change, our country will definitely change, people have already changed, now the people who have changed are here, the question is how will they be used in peacetime, ah, because everyone

is just, well, practically everyone has suffered, everyone has changed their worldview, we are now divided in general, the people some live in the same place, all the others are real, and the third is abroad, the reality is even different, the context is even different, and part will return from the front, part will return abroad, and how will all this be used by people with different values, different eh, it is possible psychotraumas, and someone lost property, someone lost a family, someone lost health , there is no idea how it will all continue to happen, but i want everyone to be patient with each other, tolerant and loyal and help help in any case numerically or materially or at least or financially, but we need to help, because as we are currently fighting against russia, so we will have to live

together later. customs and for now keep yourself in a handful through the darkness more visible in time grinds the destruction of people in the brightest way we hold onto the piles even though the hell didn't just sit down tired of holding on to the island fakal rains harsh in the flow in the resource we follow the device keep me on course the generators are humming to him in a thousand dreams we hold on washing hold stream

war does not look at all like in the movie, it is a dirty, cold and terrible war, it smells like sweat and blood, war leaves its mark on everyone who has been there, remember this when you see a man in a military uniform. this is what he looks like she has such eyes, remember the price our heroes pay every day, we respect

them . sms or find out in advance where there are landline phones with a fixed connection, in no case download large files through the mobile internet, where to reduce conversations to a minimum, whether it overloads the network and makes it inaccessible to others, let's defeat the darkness together, we have a song that contains an important message that we want to convey to the world and show that ukraine is like this we are ukrainians and we are so different and it's cool geoffrey andriyu i welcome you to the

first public broadcasting channel and i congratulate you from by winning the eurovision national selection thank you thank you everyone hello you won mainly due to the fact that the audience voted for you why do you think they voted for you if you think logically i think they liked everything that we prepared and showed on stage i liked the song to some extent the elements of the show costumes because we all tried and rehearsed a lot with the women's team and accordingly people appreciated our work do you

think you agree okay look let 's introduce you to our audience a little more precisely the opposite of our audience and with you, everyone knows that you are a creative band, but if you could now very briefly tell our viewers something more about yourself than that andrii is the sound producer of the band, after all, the free vocalist, would you say my name is andrii, i was born in ternopil region in the village of vilkhovets eh i love the city of ternopil i love to make music i like to experiment a lot and i like to share it with people lego okay aww my name is jeffrey i was born in nigeria eh i love ukrainian food a good start geliviconfur i

love you sketching paint i love you learnifens and malue i love to you music and it seems to me that hmm and it will not be an exaggeration if i say that at the time of your participation in the eurovision national selection, even your first participation, you already had a certain fan base of your own was e state on e already the second selection was already your big concert in kyiv, but you came back to us eurovision selection why is eurovision so important to you we have a song in which there is an important message that we want to convey to the world and show what ukraine is. this is what you think in why will it be let's say the highlight of your band at the performance in liverpool santa special

i want to add that all these people are ukrainians, this is the choreographer ruslan, this is the director, oleg, yes, and

we really hope that we will give it our all in liverpool and show what ukraine can do to be not only as it was declared very powerfully in previous years, his and kalush's group showed our folklore, you all liked it and here we will make such a surprise and show that ukraine has modern progressive electronic music that you can listen to also in this world, and i think people will be delighted , eh, you mentioned the folklore of previous performers, and this year some wrote that there is not enough ukrainian music . ukraine at eurovision i think it 's important to do something that was sincere, first of all, and secondly, you don't need to try to please

certain people because we are ukrainians and we are so different and it's cool because we can't all be the same everyone is the same everyone does what they feel we feel this this is how we do it this is how someone will like it someone will not like it and that's okay because everyone has their own opinion about it is great second comment well how about me it applies geoffrey though honestly saying if i i wouldn't have seen him and i wouldn't have thought about the fact that this could be a problem, er, that you don't speak ukrainian, for some of the ukrainians who voted, it affected them, they healed, what can i say, er, how do they do , well, every day i'm in the process well, i can say that i need more time to learn ukrainian and i think that everything will be okay, actually,

the ukrainian language is difficult, i can't say that i have a great command of it, but i'm also in the process of improving my skills to speak more so that you sound even better phonetically and so on well, actually weigh for those viewers who may not be familiar with your work deeply enough that you have many tracks where geoffrey sings in ukrainian, they were made before the full-scale invasion, from the beginning of our creative journey, uh, we did only in ukrainian and english and we will continue to do it because i am a big fan of the ukrainian language it sounds beautiful in an identical phonetic plan, many delicious sounds come out when pronouncing words here's what's interesting when geoffrey's head is in the song, well, when he sings ukrainian words it's very beautiful and melodious, well, at least to me personally well, i'll tell you that my favorite

song of yours is eh i don't dance when you pronounce it i don't dance it actually sounds very short well do you want to be a singer come on come on i don't dance i don't dance no no no no yes because i i'm working no, it's dancing great because it's working , see, thank you very much, it's me as a copperhead, see also the remark that was made during the selection itself by a member of the jury, yulia sanina. she suggested that you maybe think about changing your performance a little, the beginning is phenomenal , really very a stylish minimum regarding the chorus i am missing something from your light, that is, there is not enough catchiness, there are not enough backs. maybe because geoffrey sounded a little lonely, maybe because of this the

mice were not enough. do you plan to listen to these comments? we are grateful to yuli for her comments and we will pay attention to the chorus and try to it is even better, we will in any case finalize the song for the competition in liverpool, it has become even more powerful and even better, so i wonder if you were not affected by what they said to you yuliya sanivna, eh, it did not affect me, because as every person has his subjective to go no no no no that song we did it as it was, we didn't do it for eurovision. it was a track in the grain of the rhythm that wasn't intended to have an explosive chorus with it because if we wanted to make a disruptive
