"When will the war end?" A Ukrainian actress whose husband is in the Armed Forces of Ukraine explained why this question is inappropriate

Popular Ukrainian actress Daria Legeida believes that it is incorrect to ask the military about the timing of the end of the war. The actress' father and husband, famous Ukrainian actor Dmytro Sova, are currently serving in the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

In an interview with OBOZ.UA, Daria Legeida admitted that she stopped thinking about a quick victory over the enemy a week after the start of the full-scale war.

"It seems to me that it is intolerable to ask people who are fighting so hard to win: when will the war end?" the actress says. "By the way, this is also said by specialists who deal with the socialization of soldiers returning from the front to civilian life. There is no need to ask: "When is it?" "Can it be sooner?" Life is happening here and now. And if you give all your energy to waiting, will you have enough left to just live? And you have to live - in spite of everything. And victory will come. And perhaps it will not even come in the way we imagine. It may come quietly, like a miracle, which we are waiting for. In the meantime, we just need to bring this victory closer every day with our actions - to do what depends on each of us."

"As for wondering when, what, how... To be honest, I stopped thinking about it probably a week after the start of the full-scale war. I felt that it was not for two or three weeks, as one famous "pilot" predicted. I just fought for every day with all the fibers of my soul – to be able to live and fight," the artist added.

Earlier, OBOZ.UA wrote that the popular actor Dmytro Sova ("Cherkasy", "One Million Dollar Village", "Souvenir from Odesa") received a call from the military commissariat and stood up to defend Ukraine last fall. The actor is currently serving in Khmelnytsky region.

"I got into the unit where my wife's father serves," Dmytro Sova told OBOZ.UA in an interview. I am in the security battalion. How is the service going? It can be different. I am very inspired by the pilots I see when I have a chance to visit my dad. He is a squad leader, a fighter pilot by profession, and he is still flying."
