#Negotiations are the stick #putin waves around to make Ukraine's supporters sit again. And as we wait joyfully and droolingly he throws it ino the shredder and we're left dumbfounded... until he pulls the next stick out of his pocket. Negotiations are the football Lucy again and again and again holds out to Charlie Brown.

We won't fully understand, what living under ruZZia's war or under ruZZian occupation means, until we have experienced it ourselves.

I experienced it in Eastern Germany as a child. It was not hostile, but I will never want to have these times back.

Tanks rolled through our city regularly and everyone tried to keep a distance with their car because you never knew how careless or drunk the drivers were.

Also remembering when oranges arrived in the supermarket, the queue was literally two blocks long. On the rare occasions bananas were available, it was useless to line up anymore at some point.

Power outages were absolutely normal.

But I lived in a time, where you already heard jokes about not being able to make certain jokes without going to jail.

I got punishment for putting my feet on a Soviet memorial.
And I participated the "Fahnenappell", feeling similar to a Nazi march.

Never got a "higher rank", asking too many questions and coming from a suspect family.
