As the new year begins in Russia and Ukraine, it is clear that the country is still in turmoil. In Saint Petersburg, wives are desperately trying to get their husbands back as they are taken away by riot police and the true reason behind this is still unknown. The Ukrainian soldier that was on the frontlines in Ukraine had to return home for a short Christmas vacation with his family and will soon have to leave again to protect his homeland.

Meanwhile, Russian-backed militants keep pushing forward their campaign of invasion in Ukraine. Terrorist Girkin-Strelkov has stated that Russia is lying to their population in order to calm them down. However, Ukrainians are fighting back and have even decked out one of their HIMARS launchers with Christmas lights to send some New Year’s “gifts” to the Russian invasion forces.

The true spirit of strength and unity shown by the Ukrainians is evident in a particularly powerful video. Ukrainians from different buildings can be seen singing the national anthem together as Russia bombs all across Kyiv, Ukraine. This shows that despite the troubles the country is facing, the Ukrainians are still determined to stand together and fight for their homeland. It is clear that the new year has arrived in Russia and Ukraine with no signs of the terrible conflict coming to an end. The only hope for a peaceful 2023 lies in the courage and resilience of the Ukrainian people.
