In the middle of the war against Russia, Ukraine has experienced its greatest protests in years

The street lamps throw a dark yellow light on the poet’s statue: Iwan Franko, the Ukrainian national hero, looks at the crowd that has gathered near the Presidential Office in the center of Kyjiw on this Tuesday evening. The Ukrainian national anthem sounds in the immediate vicinity of the presidential office. “Honor of the nation! Death to the enemies!” Sangered the crowd before a collective call echoes through the night: “Veto against the law!” They are young people who have come, with Ukrainian flags and self -made posters – on some “WTF”, on others “We are against a dictatorship.”
