I have always wanted to go to Kyiv and especially Lviv, but I had no idea the countryside was so beautiful as well!

Where are they now? Are they still alive? My heart is broken. I can't even imagine how they feel.

The US and EU leaders must find a way to help Ukraine stop Putin’s madness sooner rather than later. If he is allowed to take Ukraine, he will turn its cities into complete rubble, if anything is left after the bombing. In Grozny, after the city was taken Russian soldiers were allowed to murder, rape, and steal from those who were left. Human Rights Watch documented the atrocities, but of course nothing was ever done about them. This paragraph describes what happened in Aldi, a suburb of Grozny. I fear what Putin will allow his soldiers to do to Ukrainians if they capture cities because he is a cruel, vindictive man.

“On February 5, 2000, Russian forces engaged in widespread killing, arson, rape and looting in Aldi. The victims included an eighty-two-year-old woman, and a one-year-old-boy with his twenty-nine-year-old mother, who was eight months pregnant. The 46-page report criticizes the failure of the Russian authorities to undertake a credible investigation into the massacre and provide adequate protection for witnesses.”

He wants what Ukraine has and he knows Rusia will never be even close to this wonderful country. Since he can't have it, he will destroy it.

Last night I decided I would happily comtribute all the $$$ I could to put a contract out on Putin.

It would be nice if our worthless national TV networks would run them for a couple of minutes at the end of each news broadcast.

OMG - the castles! The city streets and buildings and the beach and the beautiful natural untouched areas. Breaks my heart to think what's become of them by now.

The western area is more mountainous. Beautiful countryside!
Interesting, lovely parts of the cities. The golden domed probably Ukrainian Orthodox Churches.

The Cremian area that's amazing looking!
