SOUNDBITE (English), Volodymyr ZELENSKY, <p>When the lights shuts off, you always take it as something out of ordinary. But when you spend four, ten, 20 hours or even days without it, and you start to get used to the darkness, that's the worst thing ever. This means that light is not the only thing they want to take away from you. They aim for everything that is part of your life. This is how we live in Ukraine right now, defending ourselves from the enemy who came to destroy us. That is why I am turning to you now through France of Ukraine. We need your support. Every doctor who is forced to operate in the dark. Every father and every mother who does everything to give their families what they need, even in the darkness. Every Ukrainian who has faith in the freedom despite the darkness. Together we will stop this war. Please search for new ways to help Ukraine. </p>
