Yevheniia Virlych, editor-in-chief of “Kavun City”, says in an interview for The Geopost that Ukraine needs aid, up to the supply of weapons, and this should happen not only for Ukrainians, but to prevent the spread of the war to other countries.

She describes daily life in the city as very difficult, but notes that some people continue to return to their homes.

The increased Russian aggression, she underlines, is a strategy to bring everything down because they didn’t achieve what they wanted to.

“Help must come in all forms, from cultural support to the supply of weapons, to prevent the spread of war to other countries,” she emphasizes.

Full interview:

The Geopost: Can you tell us about the situation in Kherson?

You know, after the 11th of November 2022, when Kherson was liberated from Russian occupants, they began to shoot. And every day we feel those weapons above our heads, it’s very terrible situation, almost every day there are some people in tragedy because there are about 10 to 100 shootings a day. So, it’s almost broken city but the people continue to live there and some people turn home, turn back home, because it’s our native home and we want to live there. I live in Kiev now, me and my husband, we lived for four and a half months in occupation in 2022, but from July 2022 we are living in Kyiv, but once or twice a month I go home to check my home, to see my parents, to see my friends there, because they are there. And those broken houses are very terrible, and if you know, yesterday there was a very terrible day for our city, but all the people are alive.

The day when we know that after shootings, people are alive, it’s a very happy day for us, because it happens every day, those terrible shootings.

The people who were in Kherson before Russian invasion and turn back now, they say it’s another city, there are another people, another city, because it is very broken.

The Geopost: Why do we see now more Russian military aggression in Kherson?

It is their strategy, because when they came to us on the 24th of February 2022, they were sure that it was forever, that Russia is here forever and they were sure that they were there forever and after eight months and a half the Ukrainian forces liberated right bank of the river Dnipro in Kherson region, it was a very big failure for them.

So now it’s a strategy to do everything to make the city fall down. And they know what do they do, because they shoot the hospitals, the humanitarian centers and the houses of the people, not military objects. They shoot the civilian objects and it’s their strategy to make everything down because they didn’t achieve what they wanted to.

The Geopost: Does Western democracy do enough to support, to help Ukrainian people here, do you think they can do more?

I’m sure that this war in Ukraine is very important for all the world, like maybe any other war. So, we need support every day, the support of the people in Ukraine.

I don’t know what is right to do, but I think that if it’s possible, we need to be supported in every, step, in every way. If it’s culture, it may be culture. If it’s weapons, it may be weapons. Because I’m sure that if next city will fall down, the war can get out from Ukraine to other countries. It’s very dangerous and it will be a tragedy. I think that Russia has enough forces for this.
