The vice president of Kryvyi Rih’s “Kryvbas” Artem Haharin briefly but succinctly expressed his attitude towards the war.
“I generally believe that our russophobia is insufficient. Recently, journalists from Western Ukraine visited us. They stood at “95 Quarter” and said, ‘Could we have ever thought that red-black flags would hang in the center of Kryvyi Rih on the central stele?’
We have all become more patriotic, we have begun to appreciate what we have. Kryvyi Rih has united. After what is happening to us, after the shelling, how can we expect anything good from country 404?” said Haharin, as reported by the official website of “Kryvbas”.
