And Tony Dickerson comes from this area when he visits his home village of caution itself. You must also check point stopped by so called russian peacekeepers. You kind of get those as for us residents of these villages, the sites, its annoying to have to drive through here. Slowly tmz see even the because sometimes they perform checks and harass people in the middle. Of course, the check points should have been removed long ago. Outage decides the that the difficult but a little a you are fighting cushion size typical of the republican. Although the in the, all the ethnic groups in our country are represented by or you can you look, i just want to to, to publish it as since my mindset molds, because hes got into any of us, raise people in the village were estimating ukrainians. Russians usability, ongoing taxes, whereas or by johnnys i, him of with this day we live with a variety of ethnic groups. But to move to luna quick easy city to is this is anna totally depot science childhood home. When he was growing up here, most of us do belong to the soviet union to us for as long as he can remember language as being a source of conflict in his country. Not mind what language to use because the child may ask them on the goals and help them with that. With the romanian back then it was mailed over and you know, they wouldnt let us sleep mode open even there were a lot of russians at the factory, but we werent permitted to speak another language really.

And you did that though in the design it is to many people in this area are pro russian leaning. Well, i mean, some, i think theyre being manipulated because they only watch rush into the station moment, even though i have no other explanation and you to them. Theres disappointment. And the propaganda simply works very well. Be of the holidays, disappointment, and discontent. Could be instrumental lives became evident in september 2022. Then bus loads of people from across the country arrived in the capital to protest against the pro european government. These demonstrations were financed by the pro russian opposition. Attend camp was sent up in front of the parliament for the pay protesters, so they could stay around the clock. This afternoon, the crowd suddenly search towards the entrance of the president ial palace demanded the resignation of president my ascend. They turned to the phone. Ive often been in ukraine and even i havent seen any acts of war. The war only takes place on t, v and facebook. Part. Just how much outside influence is behind the protest . Motive as president , takes a clear stands for this, the most place and the protests were experiencing today are organized by corrupt people who stolen a lot from this country to go. So they let our land become impoverished. I then fled yet the and now theyre using the poor by giving them a bit of the money theyve stolen from the market. It would seem, didnt buy, need to go to your meanwhile, theyre leading, luxurious lives abroad, and using people to destabilize the situation in this country. The disability is received by chance. Id like to be as politician and im sure said to be funding the protest. Sure is it the my us going to do is our president sure. Dont forget you belong in jail. Yeah. Im here to defend our government. These folks are paid to be here. Theyve killed their own mother for cash, the, the motors and societies divine and the effects of the war becoming increasingly evident in this fall from wealthy country.

A huge number. Given multiples, total population is just 2600000. 00. The country likes the results is to solve all these problems on its own, which is also why moaned days that are applying to join the European Union. Schulty off the russia incited ukraine. In june 2022. Montalvo was granted e u candidate status. And then the you parliament, my assigned it was loaded pro european stones. This war was caused precisely, by jove, what do you think of designs . 3 said the region. 2 divided into space also improves to seize 3030. We support the sovereignty unto the thought l. Integrity of the plane. As we always beat could i me a, is you paid . The bus is ukraine. P of the the song lee, the timing to space, but over the city you will. We my father of the yes and all the is still from reaching european standards, especially in rural areas. To this day, the village of tara sofa has no running water. The elaina, channing has never known things any other way. Now let us during the draft this summer, there was hardly any water in the well and if i take 3 or 4. 00 its full, the neighbors will only be left with muddy water. Thats how it is in the summer the, the village does have a water station that comes water out at the river for an industrial firm. Local residents will also sometimes to have access to it, but only the neighboring village dogs, which has no coincidence the modem of our village of 10. I still remained with our water a customer, then another mayor came and said we should collect funds to realize the project. I was the one who went to people and collected the money a year later, still nothing had changed to i asked the mayor to return our money if it wasnt going to work. But he said the project was now completed and he couldnt give the money back. Look at the bottom flash, the Montgomery Office and 9. 00 to 10. 00 days experience has no isolated kings. Many such instances of corruption have made the people here at the time quite a few getting rich, most mold eyes and said growing poor. Since gas prices have shown top elaina chant, a cooks on the woodstove in how cold yacht pension is only around 100. 00 euros a month. So she and her relatives must rely on themselves and each other to get by by the american people. We have children living abroad who help us with money from that we buy, but we need to get we couldnt survive a week on our pensions. Didnt know 3. Yes, and this was the best time for, for the assistance but missed their relatives. You might have done lives in the Czech Republic to hear my brothers in moscow. My cousins to a good idea because my sister has a daughter, you know, you know, im the daughter in italy story and she married someone there. We rarely see each other. Thats life these days. Now soft core people leaders, initials the young people because theres no infrastructure. Usually nothing absolutely nothing. Its also based on lack of price banks that and goes people beyond renting. Casey now went on for weeks. It was an open secret that people were being paid to protest with set daily rates the business for staying overnight. The police kept an eye on development, but didnt intervene. These demonstrate to support populist politician, eli ensure hes being convicted of stealing a 1000000000. 00 for multiplan. Banks. Moneys vanished, and he didnt show his flat the country.

Roney allowed to visitors, tourists for a maximum of 10 hours. So were filming with a hidden camera to guide maxime to mac lips and works in trends and history. And we contacted several tool guides, but he was the only one willing to show us around under the circumstances. Most me to some of our media doesnt report about the protests in case you know, we have, but we have our own politics, our own president , decal, the supreme soviet system, our own power structures, at least from the justice system, through to the executive, the what happens on the other side of the river, it doesnt affect us. Beautiful trends in history a is closer to russia in spirit lose a good, a small dove is closer to your move around 500000 people live in this break away region, which is politically and economically reliance on russia.
