Vasyl says that while it is more difficult to speak about the ongoing conflict with his younger daughter, who is 5, he and his wife are"psychologically trying to prepare them for such events." In addition to preparing their children, Vasyl says he and his wife are preparing themselves, as well. "Ukrainians, we are living in our homeland. It's our motherland.

History As It Happens: One Year of War w/ Michael KimmageThis is the first episode in a two-part series marking the anniversary of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, which began on February 24, 2022.
