That is already a political question. Most of Ukraine or even Kiev is no
more dangerous than usual.
Unfortunately you are wrong. There is a risk to be attacked by so called
titushky just somewhere near own house. My friend saw buses with gunned

Hi all,
A few notes from my own perspective:
1) I'm glad to see this lively debate! I hope the right solution comes out

2) I don't want to see the projects used and misused as a platform to
achieve goals other than our mission
