We understand each other: ‘The war will not end with one signature’

‘We would like the war to end in an instant. In our imagination, as soon as the Russians stop shooting and launching missiles, life will go back to normal. Defending ourselves, our psyche is looking for a variety of scenarios for the end of this bloodshed, picturing a future as cloudless as the past.’   

New column by Ukrainian journalist, media coordinator of the Association ‘Ukraine Switzerland Bern’ Svitlana Prokopchuk ‘The war will not end with one signature’.
