Rather than just handing Ukraine the tools to destroy Russia’s drone factories, the UK shows it’s solidarity by skipping “grave concern” and heading directly into “deeply concerning”.

Trump has now refused to sanction Russia for 8 months. And Putin continues to terrorize Ukraine, with the attacks becoming more and more brutal. Putin escalates and Trump does nothing. The attacks on Kyiv, and the rest of Ukraine, are multiple times more intense and frequent than before Trump took over the White House again.

So where exactly is Trump’s so-called “toughness”?! Rolling out the red carpet, applauding a dictator, and fussing over the very man who wages war and terrorizes millions. Trump will not do anything that is hard on Russia, in my view.

In a recent interview I caught on the news: Are you ready to move to the second phase of sanctions against Russia or punishing Putin? President Trump: Yeah. I am.

What second phase?! What punishment?! WTF!?

This is all so shameful.

Yesterday was a day of pain and sadness, once again, in Kyiv, and in other parts of Ukraine. The terrorist attacks of Wednesday night are pure evil, and the politicians of the world just blah blah blah. But, the spirit of Ukrainians never dies.

Of course, there was a lot of international condemnation, but once again, words do not stop missiles.

Have a look at this – this is just pure inspiration.

Happy Independence Day to Ukraine. We hope that our love letter to Kyiv inspires people to want to learn more about Ukraine. This film journey started in 2018 and it is finally live on YouTube – please watch it. It has been an intense labour of love, and this story is only in the middle.

A Better Conversation for Ukraine

The film definitely has the potential to change hearts and minds! – Lili Bivings (Kyiv Independent)

Today is Ukrainian Independence Day – Watch the Premiere of “Kyiv of Mine”

Today is my birthday, but more interestingly, it is also the day we are finishing the post production work on our Ukraine film project, which is now called Kyiv Of Mine.

Check out the teaser trailer : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arJUcE1rxY0&t=15s

This intense labour of love started in 2018 and this weekend it will go live on YouTube. Our motivation is this: Ukraine deserves a better conversation in the world.

We hope that our work here stimulates some new interest and support for Ukraine.

If anyone of you reading this wants to do something nice for my birthday then please share this trailer link with all your friends, family, and people you work with. It all helps.

These days you don’t need Netflix or any other kind of entertainment service. The news is more than enough. Hollywood doesn’t write scripts this out there.

Since Trump entered politics the term “fake news” is now commonplace. We used to trust certain things in life. I trust the doctor. The pilot flying the plane. The news company reporting on current events. I trust the chef at the restaurant. I trust the teachers looking after the Bunster at kindergarten. We used to trust a lot of people. But in today’s world of crazy conspiracy theories and deranged politicians, we have all become less trusting.

Imagine if I did not like what the doctor told me and started shouting “Fake doctor”. This is what is happening with the media. Yes, the media is often way too opinionated. Their purpose is to report the news. And so many journalists have become famous with big online followings, that they seem to be bigger than the actual news. But that does not mean they are making up facts and figures.
