“Ukraine is torn between extremes: or we assure each other that between us there is no difference, we have common aspirations and interests, or on the contrary – for some reason, we believe in the idea of an irresistible mental gap between the Ukrainian East and West. In fact, we need to recognize that regional differences is cool, it’s a kaleidoscope of ideas that we have to present the world, as it does with its cultural diversity Italy, Spain, France.
