While Russia’s war in Ukraine rages on, a group of Ukrainian refugees have used their talents to help preserve Ukrainian culture and raise awareness of the dire situation in their country.
In The Hague, Netherlands, a group of refugee dancers have formed the United Ukrainian Ballet. They are scheduled to perform Giselle, a classical ballet by Alexei Ratmansky, this weekend at the Kennedy Center in Washington.
The War Can’t Stop Culture
This ballet is a statement to the world that Ukrainians will not be crushed. It is a defiance against atrocities occurring in their own country, and it is the ultimate expression of solidarity.
They are a very proud people, they are very brave, and they want to share their story with the world.
These people are not afraid to take risks and are ready to do whatever it takes to fight for their heritage, even if it means risking their lives.
It is important to support these people, to give them a chance to get used to life in the UK. They may be very traumatized and need time to deal with their new circumstances.
They Need Our Help
If you are in a position to support them, it is vital that you are sensitive to their feelings and provide them with the time they need to recover. This will help them to adapt to their new lives and not feel too overwhelmed or judged by their experience.
You should also keep an eye on their physical wellbeing, as they will be more likely to have headaches and dizziness. This is because they are experiencing a lot of stress from the war.
