Коли наші воїни вигнали росію з Бучі, з Ірпеня, з Бородянки, з усієї Київщини, а потім із Сумщини, з Чернігівщини – кожен зміг побачити, що це перемогиане лише української сміливості та зброї, але й людської моралі. Хай увесь світ ніколи не забуває, якою ціною дається ця битва і яке зло ми зупиняємо тут, на нашій землі, коли українці зупиняють і виганяють російських окупантів.

When our soldiers drove Russia out of Bucha, Irpin, Borodyanka, the entire Kyiv region, and then Sumy and Chernihiv regions, everyone could see that these were victories not only of Ukrainian courage and weapons, but also of human morality. Let the whole world never forget the price of this battle and the evil we are stopping here, on our land, when Ukrainians stop and expel the Russian occupiers.

Morning Mourning.

It might seem impossible to see anything in the dense, milky fog that has covered Odesa today. But the fog, even the most dense, unfortunately cannot hide the horror, pain, despair and deaths of people.

How hard is it to protect myself from hopelessness, fear and complete calcification of the heart.

The latest, and allegedly the most massive attack by russia on Ukraine so far. Residential estates, houses, the maternity hospital, the school, the trading centre, offices, shops.... Spent almost the entire night and morning on a chair in the corridor under drone blasts, missiles and the challenging work of our Ukrainian air defence defenders. At least 30 people have been killed and More than 160 people were injured.

Russia is and will be a terrorist state. It is easy to become convinced of this by reading the thousands of comments on all social networks written by russians. This is not a war of putin, politicians, military, this is a war of common russian people, who apparently enjoy only one thing - being terrorists, killing common Ukrainians in their homes, destroying homes, trying to completely erase the history of Ukraine. Please remember this and support Ukraine.

Nobel Lecture given by Nobel Peace Prize Laureate 2022 Center for Civil Liberties / Центр Громадянських Свобод, delivered by Oleksandra Matviichuk , Oslo, 10 December 2022.

Time to take responsibility

Your Majesty, Your Royal Highnesses, dear members of the Norwegian Nobel Committee, citizens of Ukraine and citizens of the world.

This year, the entire Ukrainian nation was waiting for the announcement of the Nobel Peace Prize laureates. We see this Prize as a recognition of the efforts of the Ukrainian people, who have bravely stood up to the attempts to destroy peaceful development of Europe, as well as a celebration of the work being done by human rights activists in order to prevent military threat for the entire world. We are proud of having Ukrainian language heard during the official ceremony for the first time in history.

We are receiving the Nobel Peace Prize during the war started by Russia. This war has been going on for eight years, 9 months and 21 days. For millions of people, such words as shelling, torture, deportation, filtration camps have become commonplace. But there are no words which can express the pain of a mother who lost her newborn son in a shelling of the maternity ward. A moment ago, she was caressing her baby, calling him by his name, breastfeeding him, inhaling his smell – and the next moment a Russian missile destroyed her entire universe. And now her beloved and longed-for baby lies in the smallest coffin in the world.

There are no available solutions for the challenges we and the whole world are facing now. People from different countries are also fighting for their rights and freedoms in extremely difficult circumstances. So, today I will at least try to ask the right questions so that we could start looking for these solutions.

First. How can we make human rights meaningful again?

Survivors of the World War II are no longer around. And the new generations began to take rights and freedoms for granted. Even in developed democracies, forces questioning the principles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights are on the rise. But human rights cannot be upheld once and for all. The values of modern civilization must be protected.

Peace, progress and human rights are inextricably linked. A state that kills journalists, imprisons activists, or disperses peaceful demonstrations poses a threat not only to its citizens. Such a state poses a threat to the entire region and peace in the world as a whole. Therefore, the world must adequately respond to systemic violations. In political decision-making, human rights must be as important as economic benefits or security. This approach should be applied in foreign policy too.

Russia, that has been consistently destroying its own civil society, illustrates this very well. But the countries of the democratic world have long turned a blind eye to this. They continued to shake hands with the Russian leadership, build gas pipelines and conduct business as usual. For decades, Russian troops have been committing crimes in different countries. But they always got away with this. The world has not even adequately responded to the act of aggression and annexation of Crimea, which were the first such cases in post-war Europe. Russia believed that they could do whatever they want.

Now Russia is deliberately inflicting harm on civilians aiming to stop our resistance and occupy Ukraine. Russian troops intentionally destroy residential buildings, churches, schools, hospitals, shell evacuation corridors, put people in filtration camps, carry out forced deportations, kidnap, torture and kill people in the occupied territories.

The Russian people will be responsible for this disgraceful page of their history and their desire to forcefully restore the former empire

Second. How to start calling a spade a spade?

People of Ukraine want peace more than anyone else in the world. But peace cannot be reached by country under attack laying down its arms. This would not be peace, but occupation. After the liberation of Bucha, we found a lot of civilians murdered in the streets and courtyards of their homes. These people were unarmed.

We must stop pretending deferred military threats are “political compromises”. The democratic world has grown accustomed to making concessions to dictatorships. And that is why the willingness of the Ukrainian people to resist Russian imperialism is so important. We will not leave people in the occupied territories to be killed and tortured. People’s lives cannot be a “political compromise”. Fighting for peace does not not mean yielding to pressure of the aggressor, it means protecting people from its cruelty.

In this war, we are fighting for freedom in every meaning of the word. And for it, we are paying the highest possible price. We, Ukrainian citizens of all nationalities, should not discuss our right to a sovereign and independent Ukrainian state and development of the Ukrainian language and culture. As human beings, we do not need an approval of our right to determine our own identity and make our own democratic choices. Crimean Tatars and other indigenous peoples should not prove their right to live freely in their native land in Crimea.

Our today’s fight is paramount: it shapes the future of Ukraine. We want our post-war country to let us build not some shaky structures, but stable democratic institutions. Our values matter most not when it’s easy to embody them, but when it’s really hard. We must not become a mirror of the aggressor state.

This is not a war between two states, it is a war of two systems – authoritarianism and democracy. We are fighting for the opportunity to build a state in which everyone’s rights are protected, authorities are accountable, courts are independent, and the police do not beat peaceful student demonstrations in the central square of the capital.

On the way to the European family, we have to overcome the trauma of war and its associated risks, and affirm the choice of the Ukrainian people determined by the Revolution of Dignity.

Third. How to ensure peace for people around the world?

The international system of peace and security does not work anymore. Crimean Tatar Server Mustafayev as well as many others are put in Russian prisons because of their human rights work. For a long time, we used law to protect human rights, but now we do not have any legal mechanisms to stop Russian atrocities. So many of the human rights activists were compelled to defend what they believe in with arms in their hands. For example, my friend Maksym Butkevych, who is now in Russian captivity. He and other Ukrainian prisoners of war, as well as all detained civilians, must be released.

The UN system, created after the World War II by its winners, provides for some unjustified indulgences for individual countries. If we don’t want to live in the world where rules are set by states with stronger military capabilities, this has to be changed.

We have to start reforming the international system to protect people from wars and authoritarian regimes. We need effective guarantees of security and respect for human rights for citizens of all states regardless of their participation in military alliances, military capability or economic power. This new system should have human rights at its core.

And the responsibility for this lies not only with politicians. Politicians are tempted to avoid looking for complex strategies, which require a lot of time. They often act as if global challenges would disappear by themselves. But the truth is that they only get worse. We, people who want to live in peace, should tell politicians that we need a new architecture of the world order.

We may not have political tools, but we still have our words and our position. Ordinary people have much more influence than they think they do. Voices of millions of people from different countries can change world history faster than interventions of the UN.

Fourth. How to ensure justice for those affected by the war?

Dictators are afraid that the idea of freedom will prevail. This is why Russia is trying to convince the whole world that the rule of law, human rights and democracy are fake values. Because they do not protect anyone in this war.

Yes, the law doesn’t work right now. But we do not think it is forever. We have to break this impunity cycle and change the approach to justice for war crimes. A lasting peace that gives freedom from fear and hope for a better future is impossible without justice.

We still see the world through the lens of the Nuremberg Tribunal, where war criminals were convicted only after the fall of the Nazi regime. But justice should not depend on resilience of authoritarian regimes. We live in a new century after all. Justice cannot wait.

We need to bridge the responsibility gap and make justice possible for all the affected people. When the national system is overloaded with the war crimes. When the International Criminal Court can try just a few selected cases or has no jurisdiction at all.

War turns people into numbers. We have to reclaim the names of all victims of war crimes. Regardless of who they are, their social status, type of crime they have suffered, and whether the media and society are interested in their cases. Because anyone’s life is priceless.

Law is a living continuously evolving matter. We have to establish an international tribunal and bring Putin, Lukashenko and other war criminals to justice. Yes, this is a bold step. But we have to prove that the rule of law does work, and justice does exist, even if they are delayed.

Fifth. How can global solidarity become our passion?

Our world has become very complex and interconnected. Right now, people in Iran are fighting for their freedom. People in China are resisting the digital dictatorship. People in Somalia are bringing child soldiers back to peaceful life. They know better than anyone what it means to be human and stand up for human dignity. Our future depends on their success. We are responsible for everything that happens in the world.

Human rights require a certain mindset, a specific perception of the world that determines our thinking and behavior. Human rights become less relevant if their protection is left only to lawyers and diplomats. So, it is not enough to pass the right laws or create formal institutions. Societal values will always prevail.

This means that we need a new humanist movement that would work with meanings, educate people, build grass-root support and engage people in the protection of rights and freedoms. This movement should unite intellectuals and activists from different countries, because the ideas of freedom and human rights are universal and have no state borders.

This will enable us to create a demand for solutions and jointly overcome global challenges – wars, inequality, attacks on privacy, rising authoritarianism, climate change, etc. This way we can make this world a safer place.

We do not want our children to go through wars and suffering. So, as parents we have to assume the responsibility and act, not to shift it on our children. Humanity has a chance to overcome global crises and build a new philosophy of life.

It’s time to assume the responsibility. We don’t know how much of the time we still have.

And since this Nobel Peace Prize Ceremony takes place during the war, I will allow myself to reach out to people around the world and call for solidarity. You don’t have to be Ukrainians to support Ukraine. It is enough just to be humans.

I'm scared to be heard. I'm scared to be unheard. I don't want to talk about myself in times like these, to make excuses. But I don't want to stay silent too. This is a type of nightmare that only gets worse over time. And there's no way to wake up, shake it off and go on about your day as if it never happened. The nightmare is here for a long time now. And every part of me wants to hide. Not see it, not feel the pain. But I can not. My duty in this war is to be a witness. Never close my eyes, no matter how painful it is to watch. Never turn a blind eye to the truth. Don't let the hate from other people tear my heart apart. Stay true to myself. Help where I can. And believe that one day I can peacefully lay on the grass, look at the clear sky, and not think about war and death.

The face of the "Russian of the world".

I really want this, or something like it,

to be seen in the territory of evil!

And I also really want the center of this evil, the Kremlin.

the center of this evil, the Kremlin, and then

further into the depth and breadth of this evil.

The slaves have to see this and understand it,

and if they don't understand it, then to experience it.

In the meantime, our Heroes are busy

utilization of the Russian shit, and they do

This is very good, but unfortunately at a high

at the cost of the lives of the best!

And today is also Volunteer Day!

My deepest gratitude to our Heroes, brothers-in-arms and all those who defend our land from this evil, and we remember those who gave their lives for our country and freedom!

Glory to Ukraine!!! 🇺🇦

Since last year, I feel as if I have become a mosaic, shattered in pieces. By the end of the year, with great struggle, I have started and continue to put myself back together in small fragments. Some of the fragments I will never find again.

They disappeared forever along with murdered Ukrainian soldiers, volunteers, tortured civilians, slaughtered animals and birds, dead trees, fields trampled by the russian boot, mined seas, unborn children and all those who were forced to leave Ukraine and have not been able to return home so far.

One year ago russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Endless 24 February.

Now a year later, I can hardly imagine how we managed to survive the whole year and continue to stay strong.

Especially the worst first months of the war, when there was absolutely no clarity at all, the abundance of fakes generated with monstrous speed by russian propaganda, the fear, anger and inability to realise that all this horror was really happening.

Our struggle and resistance continues. Until the victory of Ukraine. There is no other way. But I understand that even after our victory, February 2022, will remain with us forever.

I took this photo in the spring of '22 from my balcony - another russian missile fell nearby - a common sight at the time.

Eternal memory to the fallen defenders, heartfelt gratitude to all those who help and support us, glory and victory to Ukraine!
