Evgeny Bokhashvili (photo: libertatea.ro)— How are you?
— When the war started, my family from Lvov left for Germany as refugees, but the problem with visas remained. The war in Ukraine is far from over. There are moments and nuances. There are weeks with relative calm, then the situation worsens again. Nobody knows how this will end. Many families live separately. The men are forced to stay in Ukraine, the rest of the family members have left, but they cannot return yet. I think anyone with a family understands how depressing this situation is. And yet, part of my family lives in Russia.
— Seriously? How do people live there?
— My uncle lives in Russia, part of my father's family lives there. They live there, but they are not 100% Russian. I was born during the Soviet Union, my father is Georgian, and my mother is Ukrainian.
— And how are they?
“There are bad people everywhere in the world, just like there are good people everywhere. The Russians did not want this war! I mean ordinary people, not politicians. This terrible war was and remains a political affair. A normal person cannot want war, kill. For example, I distinguish between ordinary Russians and Putin and his people. I cannot speak ill of the Russian people, of the vast majority of Russians, whom I consider peace-loving people. Unfortunately, ordinary people cannot stop the war.
It should be noted that Yevgeny Bokhashvili was born and raised in Dnipro.
