[000:00:00;00] i didn't think about anyone anymore. i was thinking purely. how to survive is trivial, but the fact is, if we talk about emotions, for example, when you are covered, then everyone has a completely different reaction. humor, well, that is, i always started laughing and joking with the guy, some of them were very annoyed by it. they said dark, what are you doing? die with the frightened that's why it's important to know. well, it's really different for everyone, but i talked with the guys about their reactions and many of them had the same reactions as mine. and many of them didn't. i

won't usually ask about the nuances of your work, professional work, because these are the things that are learned and then they use it so that the enemy does not know what you are doing, but i will ask in a different way, did you have the opportunity to meet with this world-famous sniper who came, i don't know where he is now, but in the first stages of the war he i was in ukraine, in the army, he is also called that. did you have the opportunity to talk to him and maybe get some advice or just be there in your own language. let’s say it in sniper language. unfortunately, i didn’t have such an opportunity to talk voluntarily. praise at the front. here’s my comrade, he interviewed him, and before the interview he consulted with me and potap zhenya about what to ask him, so what is interesting , that's why, of course, if i had the opportunity to meet him, i love it, it's a great honor

, and i talked about the sniper of the will. very often i give him as an example, yes, because hmmm , many ukrainians condemned me and said that sniper cannot show his face. yes , i gave it to the will and said that you understand. there is no such thing. it is possible, it is not possible. her choice of a person is yes . that is, we voluntarily made such a choice. here he is different, well, personally, as for me, yes, i have never worked as a sniper there for some pleasant time and so on. and in fact, even in this war, i am a volunteer because i am a reserve officer and so on. well, i should not have gone, that is, i would have been called up there. - last but not least, me i went to i went voluntarily, that's why i'm like everyone else, just

a military woman who worked with a 308 caliber. that's the whole difference. and please tell me, did anything happen in your life during the war, uh, the time when you were there , a story with some personal confrontation? well, you you know, we are all mostly people who were not in the war, and the vast majority of such people in ukraine perceive the war through cinema, and even if it is a documentary film about the modern war or a video that we see, we consciously perceive it a little like this in an artistic sense, because we they did not experience this and it is impossible to perceive otherwise. and here are these stories about the confrontation of snipers, how it was there or something like that . well, always when there is a personal story of the personalities of the confrontation. in this case, i ask you not to make things up. but did you have a story that there was a sniper, let's say from the side to which you had to approach or who approached you, for example, no

, i personally do not have such a story, i will frankly tell such a story i didn't have a single story, i knew that if i saw snipers, i would be the first to eliminate them. here are the sniper rules a little differently, but i had my own rules, that's why i won't tell you anything so interesting, you know, there's a lot now it is said that we need artillery, we are getting it and we will continue to get it, and it somehow breaks the course of battles in one or another direction or the course of this war in general, and of course snipers have their own ammunition and their own weapons. and this is an individual story about how to get your a rifle and whether they have like a sniper well, you will tell about yourself, but in general, it’s a weapon of a different level, maybe it’s better than the russian weapon, which has a longer range . and there are other points that you know about , which go into the characteristics of this rifle

, again, you have to get it yourself, you’re looking for it donate in order to purchase this multi-kilogram rifle, does the state provide it, maybe there are some agreements about well, please, i can only say about my experience and about my special unit. issued a weapon yes, the 308 caliber was given to me by my mentor, he has been fighting since the age of 14. he is a very talented sniper. but it is clear that i still want my weapon , you know, a weapon is like a child, it is like a car for a man, yes, which he loves very much. that is why people helped me. the people of ukraine, that is, they raised money for me in order to buy a sivash 308 caliber, and then there was such a shortage of weapons in the country

. well, maybe someone had them. well, but i just looked everywhere and when in ukraine with when the first two rifles appeared, they immediately called me they said that there is a rifle and it will be yours, and at that moment, when the funds are collected, i will say yes , and this war is provided by ordinary ukrainians with their donations. it is much more comfortable, believe me, you are, again, a person who was in the military before the beginning of the invasion, and when you went to war and actually began to participate in hostilities, you already understood how to behave, you saw a certain and that when people come civilian mobilization

we still have them and many people volunteered. someone was mobilized who burned with the desire to fight . good is a very good word and are there moments when it does not happen this transformation well it did not happen and a person did not become a warrior who often takes and what affects here what is important for a person to change and i became a man of war. well, i will correct you a little bit. i was not exactly a military man, that was the story. yes, i was engaged in shooting, but i had never painted on the front before, that is, in the 14th year, i wanted not to be taken in connection with a minor child.

a full-scale invasion is for me my first war. that is, you can say that i was also green. so we had a lot of young volunteers who had never even held a weapon in their hands. they were trained in the process . the adaptation was very, very fast, and i want to say that a person gets used to everything like that a person gets used to bad conditions very quickly and to good conditions very quickly, i can say the same about war, i guess you can't say that you can get used to it yes, but adaptation - adaptation took place very quickly, we never had to adapt and still think about this, that is, we all had one single goal - this is the protection of the state, this is the protection of ukrainians , and this is exactly what we did, and believe me, i have seen such transformations that really, when a guy comes, he does not understand what, how, but he wants to and

he became a very cool warrior, so i generally i am also proud of our boys and girls, because you look at how many people from business have come, so many people who have not been crazy, that is, not from military affairs, who simply learned everything from scratch, and it seems to me that only our nation is like this if you saw the sights of your screws - as it were happened and you saw putin in the sights of your rifle, would you hesitate for a long time, or would you immediately pull the trigger, i have thought about it so many times and dreamed of it, i would not hesitate for a single second well, often, money very quickly, no gaga , no tribunal, that is, if you had such chance fell out. you wouldn't think about the fact that they have it absolutely. i wouldn't even tell you more . if i understood that i would shoot this shot and they would immediately eliminate me, then i still shot

this shot. putin's shot. you know when the war started, because we still we're still doing this interview until february 24, a special day in the history of modern ukraine, the latest stories of ukraine, ah, everyone read it then, people didn't sleep , at least i didn't sleep the first week there, i almost didn't sleep every day, we were in the news in telegram and everyone knows they say when people are even already in there were battles in mariupol and when people were in informational isolation, and the first question was asked by people who were leaving mariupol along the green corridor . how is kyiv standing? well, not all people. by the way, people were also convinced that kyiv had already been taken. it was all over, it was the key story of kyiv, and everyone was watching what was going on in kyiv when this convoy was traveling 64 km, it was even written about in

cnn and everyone was watching, and it was something so terrible for people who i understand by the way i understand that 25 of them will be in kyiv. well, they were in kyiv, thank god, er, not as much of an armada as it could have been, if it had been like the defenders. and how did you perceive this threat? for you, it was, you know, demotivating, so to speak . causes a kind of numbness, well, that is, this is what is happening to us. well, what is it? well, what is it? whether or not there is a desire to meet all this professionally and professionally, together with my brothers and with the armed forces, try to resist it as much as possible. i immediately said that i will defend kyiv until my last breath, and i, too at the same time, i made a decision to cover everything in the news, because before the full-scale invasion, i especially had never managed social networks. and you know, i still had the choice to cover or not to cover, and i calculated that it would be necessary

to show everything that was happening so that people from other countries would i saw how it really is and i remember one of my acquaintances told me what are you doing . why are you talking about war, why are you including this patriotism , if it means that the russians will come to us because of you , they will shoot everyone here, that is, you imagine like this thoughts of a person and i said that as long as the ukrainian flag is flying in ukraine, i will defend it to the last , it doesn't matter to me, well, really, that's why i had such a very militant spirit, in principle, in general , all of us at the front, this spirit did not fade, that's why i told you so

i would say kyiv we definitely wouldn't give it away. you speak excellent ukrainian and by the way many people in ukraine now speak excellent ukrainian. this is the choice of the people. it's wonderful. no one ever pressures us, but people understand where their family is and where they are shedding blood and dying for today. unfortunately thousands of our heroes and thousands of people, er, civilians. and you switched to ukrainian. i understand it now consciously. and how did it happen? if i think that you know these words, they will be a motivational advice for many people who think. well, yes, but why, that is, the same you can too, please, thank you very much for the compliment, i will be honest . i have never spoken ukrainian before. once upon a time, a long time ago, at the university , i may have passed exams in the years 12-13

. i was lucky to serve er next to guys from ivano-frankivsk who spoke exclusively ukrainian, and with such an interesting dialect, and i made the decision that i live in ukraine. i want to learn ukrainian and i started learning it during the war, and one was enough for me a month in order to speak fully ukrainian, i try to speak purely ukrainian and i learned it very simply using google translator as from english, or if i didn’t know a word, i called it russian with the boys and asked them to simply translate it into ukrainian

here i am. by the way, i am very proud that i have learned the language . i speak ukrainian. it is very difficult to speak ukrainian, but they try, they apologize, for example , odessa and say, "sorry, we just started teaching, but we respect you and try to speak ukrainian, and this really makes my heart happy, because it is necessary to inspire people to switch to the ukrainian language and to push, we talked about the fact that in the war of death where war goes hand in hand, but as it is written in the holy scriptures that there are two forces that are equal - it is death and love.

and love happened during the war - in your life and how you how it happened in the war yes and what happened before the war because i know that you had a person who was with you and the war changed your relationship and your life and then was what brought love your life please war this it's not only about death, it's also about life, really and probably . i think there's no better time than now to fall in love, because feelings are tested very quickly, really before a full-scale invasion. i was in a relationship, but this person left abroad and very quickly. that our interests simply became different. and this, you know, was one of my

trials, so i was in shock, but i understood that it had happened. i say mom everything will be fine. look, i will probably meet my love and get married. but everything will be fine. i can even imagine why it will happen like this. i really met my loved one at the front, or rather, we met online because we served in different units in different hotspots, and so did ours. dating is simple online we started to get to know each other from a distance and it so happened that we fell in love like my grandmother and grandfather once did. by the way, they were soldiers and they fought during the second

world war. my father was born, then yevgenia, we are now seeing wonderful footage . by the way, we are seeing a new life. i understand that way. on the video. and who was the first to make a good shot or who missed this shot? the first view is your husband in the heart. who doesn't leave any chances. and a man who sees me and won't think for a long time will immediately understand what to take . but i can say that we had love at first sight. it really exists. if it happened to me, i wouldn't believe that such a thing is possible. plus we are in the military and you know us now the value of life and understanding and it is a little different so it is not similar to the value of understanding like for example many

military people because we are at war we understood that every day can be the last and why should we think for a long time wait to check each other we decided to take a risk i uh you know, now ukraine is solving its problems with the help of our diplomats on that flank and with the help of the front, first of all our army more long-range projectiles and , of course, fighter jets, if you were at the meeting at which, say, oleksiy reznikov was in brusser and addressed the representatives of various countries, well, in particular, the rammstein coalition, there are now more than 50 of them, there were already 40 so that you would say and in this way you would say this is also for the citizens of the european union. by the way, according to the latest statistical estimates, 66% of the citizens of the european union are convinced that

russia is guilty of this war. well, there are always 40 percent, but the vast majority is for us. let's say that they were told why it is important to hand over these weapons to ukraine. so, what is ukraine fighting for? it's an interesting question. well, first of all, i would like to thank you, you know. even if they didn't give you anything, before you ask , you have to thank. first, yes, and then ask. i guess i would i would use my example to explain that women really fight in our country, and ukrainians are a nation that will never give in and will fight to the end, so it is very important to end this war as soon as possible so that fewer people die, both military and civilian. to be honest, we everyone already

tired and you are tired and i am tired and every ukrainian is tired. well, i guess if i had such an opportunity to speak, i would have prepared well and found such words that would hit the very heart. you know. by the way, it would be very cool if that happened. for example, they went abroad and talked to the famous doctor tyra, who was in mariupol and was actually captured . sniper ludmila pavlychenko, er, she, well, at least in the movie , it was shown that she appeared before the americans in order for them to give this longlist for ukraine . it would be cool if her example played then . by the way, if our motivations used your experience, i understand what you are waiting for now

for life and i don't think it's for you, but it would definitely be cool, you can . i'll ask another question for this, yes, but i think that it was even a big plus . with heart and skin and head with everything if possible she knows what to say that there is a person who at this time is preparing to give a new life to the world , overcoming death is really beautiful. such a more or less longer time and under president zelensky or with general luzhny, whoever you choose , but that’s the only way. well, i’ll tell you, i always tell the truth, it was more interesting for me to chat with luzhny, so that you could ask him. well, he has at least one question, how his business is honestly simple in a human way, i understand that he is also tired, that's why i asked him about the war

, he is asked that. every day i would just talk about life. it's as if this person didn't have this war for a year, you understand. for example, i'm also constantly asked about the war , and i really understand. this war i have now it's an information war, literally. in a few days, i will have an online interview with lithuania. they love me very much, they have already donated, they have already raised 8 million dollars for ukraine and they want to raise a few more million, and they believe that my interview will

inspire people and will be able to raise even more funds, that's why i'm trying as hard as i can, even in the rear, to take part in this war. well, you 're pretty steady, hold your ground during our long interview, but i 'll ask you a few more questions and i'll let you go you see a lot, you saw na my own eyes i think and continue to see what the war does to people who are not at the forefront of course there are physical injuries, there are psychological and psychological physical injuries . i didn't want to. well, i just can't, and there are still issues that you can't solve in any way. he didn't even psychologically decide about everything and everything. these people will all return . someone will return. someone else will return . a huge number of people, hundreds of thousands of people. will return to civilian life to us, everyone who waited for them, helped and supported us, but we were not there, we are from other worlds, all worlds will meet, tell us what kind of people will return and how we can meet them, so that we

live harmoniously and give what you should give the army which protected us, let's say honest life and blood, the key points are simple and understandable. for all people, this is a very painful question for me, because i understand that there will be a certain problem, and we are already facing these problems even at the front when i was the guys thought that the war would be over, they would return and everyone would be waiting for them like this and all the benefits of this life would simply be thrown at their feet, but this will not happen, you understand, because it was our choice, guys who are psychologically traumatized, we must all help. here is what i think happened b very aptly use the experience of israel, they already have ready

programs for their military, and there is a lot of interesting things that ukraine can take into account literally today , a girl turned to me for help, a guy lost 23 years two limbs are on the hot spot and she says yevgenia . can you help somehow? the guy doesn’t talk to anyone at all. i understood that the first protest, of course, is to find free of charge and psychological help , that is, i need to urgently start bringing this guy back to me, and luckily i have a friend who he lost his arm a long time ago and he is doing this now, so he helps boys and girls who lost limbs at the front psychologically and if there were more such people and

i will tell you that we would have succeeded very quickly to overcome this problem in the future and i call on all ukrainians to unite anyway, whoever has the relevant knowledge and who has the desire because we will really have to work a lot more after the end of this war within the war for really boys and girls they will come back and they will be very strong our support will be necessary. we have four minutes left, but i will ask three short questions and short answers from you, and now the press is looking at you, in any case, on russia, this is a fact, and i will not be here, you know. them address they are all stupid anyway and whatever they were there, you definitely saw them in the sight of a rifle, most of them and say a few words for the russians well, first of all, you don't need to evaluate the enemy so this is very big i want

to convey a big congratulations to all of them and thank you for the fact that they write threats to me every day, they allocate time and energy for this. and if this happens, then they are afraid and are doing the right thing. let them know once again that we really have not only brave men, but also women and very beautiful women, that's why they will spend energy for threats and the blocking of our accounts on social networks and we will a-a even better remove them from our land and whoever comes to our land will apologize or stay here or return in packages so it is better not to come your rifle was eaten out the name is mine the rifle is called victor, this is my brother, my mentor

, who, unfortunately, has already died in this war, he is gone. and this is his memory, when there is a victory or capitulation, or the enemy will simply go and say that whatever you do at this time, i will make borscht and i will wait for mine husband to return home and we began to live, you know, a normal family life, and for the last very short time, you know. my great-grandfather , who was in three previous wars, well, in the first half of the 20th century, he never talked about the second world war and died without particularly talking about it and i understand that this will probably happen to many people after this war, but you will have a child and you will tell about the war, i will tell her about this war

, of course not about all the experiences i went through, but we have to tell to the new generation, especially to the children of the war. they should know what their parents went through, appreciate this freedom, appreciate our country. well, in principle, i plan to write a book about my path later, when it will be often . i will definitely be looking forward to it. i think there will be more the movie well, no, defense of sevastopol is like pavlychenko or there unbreakable somehow differently but in any case it will be interesting let’s say me and viktor so it will be cool well we mean your rifle thank you very much but you can in any case, we will be waiting there. i thank you very much, yevgenia, for joining me. thank you for what you did at the front, continue to do for the victory of ukraine, and you are an example for many. i think that after this interview , even more people will inspired by your example and will join this war to win take care of yourself good luck yevgenia moral was with us she is an officer of the armed forces of ukraine, a special forces officer and
