Well, it's gotten pretty tough in January.
So January and February were the toughest winter that we've had ever.
It is by far the most bombing.
And it's been this way since early 2025.
Since early 2025, things changed dramatically for people in Kyiv.
But it's since, you know, a few months ago when Russians really succeeded in targeting the energy facilities.
And we were facing blackouts.
And for many weeks, we were on maybe like one, two hours of electricity supply a day.
which is suboptimal, especially when combined with what was, I think, like the coldest winter in 16 years, something like that.
I wouldn't say forgotten because, you know, we've been through this, obviously, with the October 7 attack, because that was the first time when we've experienced this attention shift.
So I wouldn't say forgotten.
I think...
Everything that's been happening since Donald Trump took office and started his sort of peace talk process has been quite surreal for us.
Yeah, forgotten is not the word, but sometimes I do see, I wouldn't say that necessarily I feel like that, but Ukrainians increasingly feel betrayed by the West, particularly by the U.S.
Well, because, I mean, I want to be very, very frank.
I think that a lot of things that the current US administration is doing is effectively siding with Russia.
And I think in the beginning of 2025, maybe spring 2025, we became independent.
We wrote an editorial saying that the US has switched sides in this war, effectively.
Because when you read what's happening lately, and especially, I think yesterday was the first time, even though we kind of had wind of this for a while, but yesterday was the first time when President Zelensky said publicly that the U.S.
is only ready to provide security guarantees to Ukraine.
