Okay, and Oksana, how can you tell me what you did before the war? Just tell me and let me know where you’re from.

Oxsana Chorna:
First of all, for me, the war started in 2013. Now we have Maidan because I really know that the Army is from 2014 to 2017. So, for me and the world, it’s been eight years.
