@@cvspvr Not everyone has to fight, but men can't leave country unless they either have serious health problems or 3 and more children. Also if a child has a father but doesn't have a mother, in that case men can leave country too. My father can't leave Ukraine as well
I taught English in Ukraine about 10 years ago. Love these people and this country deeply. This brought tears to my eyes but I appreciated seeing this footage. God bless.
Ukraine has changed a lot over the past 10 years. 2013 - bloody Maidan, sponsored by the USA and UK. May 2, 2014 - Ukrainian nazis burned 48 people alive in Odessa. No one has ever been held accountable for these crimes. And then the war came to Donbass. But nobody cared. Until 2022..
Thank you for teaching English.
Serious question. Did you teach english in Dnipro, before Dnipropetrovsk? At like Work and Travel agency?

This was the best thing I've seen in weeks. As a Ukrainian currently living abroad I couldn't hold back tears watching my homeland filmed by my favourite youtuber during these tragic times. I was there in many places shown in the video just over a year ago, but it feels like it was in a different lifetime 😥. The football at the entrance to Irpin, the bridge over Dnipro, the streets and underground coffeeshops in Lviv... Thank you Barbs ❤

I visited both countries and thought the both were great people.
"Our future with Poland is more important than our past with them". This words were said by Stepan Łenkawski, a Ukrainian nationalist and the leader of UPA after Bandera was killed. Till this day every Ukrainian nationalist lives by these words of wisdom. Glory to Ukraine! Glory to Poland!

I moved to the US 15 years ago, my wife and I are both Ukrainian. We used to go visit our friends and family in Ukraine almost every year. Now I watch videos of familiar streets in a dark, funerals, destroyed houses, I just can’t keep my eyes dry. Ukraine is a great country with great people, they don’t deserve all this. No one does.
You are lucky that you've managed to escape the country earlier. Wish you all the best!
I'm from Russia, but I don't suppor our president's decision to startt war and I hope it will end soon with the best outcome for both countries..
I wish you and your friends/family in Ukraine all the best. Stay safe.

@@Mike-mc3sh the only Nazi flag now is the flag of russia. I am from the east of Ukraine. from occupied Donetsk. I know what I'm talking about
@@ktkh-qi1cy So for the past 8 years Ukraine didn't bomb and kill people from the east?
@@Mike-mc3sh russia occupied my city 9 years ago. Ukraine must defend itself. Is there something difficult to understand here? I wish you to never know what the torture of the russian occupiers is.
@@ktkh-qi1cy and what city would that be? I'm not against people defending themselves. I'm just against my government sending money and weapons to a puppet regime considered the most corrupt in Europe and basically run by neonazi Banderites in government and the military. But if you care so much about Ukraine defending itself then why didn't you stay to fight for your city and country?
I haven't cried in more than 5 years, this video made me actually cry. I was living for 4 years in Kyiv until we had to leave after the war began, I never really wanted to leave, my mom made me. Best city I ever lived in, best people I ever met in my life, and I will finish my life in Ukraine, I know it for a fact. That country is as much of a home as my original country.

@@oldjoe182 Don't be hard on yourself dude. There are plenty of Russians out there who are opposed to Putin and his regime and the crimes they are committing in Ukraine. And those Russian soldiers fighting on the side of Ukraine have my utmost respect.

As a Ukrainian I’m so glad you came to my country during the war and showed it to your audience. Thank you so much 😊 Very good work 👍
Im pro ukraine and this is just on honest question isnt the red and black flag an ultra-nationalist fringe symbol founded by the nazis?
@@sweetfrythey fought both the soviets and the nazis as a partisan movement
@@sweetfry Чёрно-Красный это флаг УПА (Украинской повстанческой Армии) 1941-1945≈
@LittenMEW азов до 2015≈ имел отношения к нацизму( в азове были неонацисты) но после реформы азов такойже полк как и в другой любой стране!
@@sweetfry Red and black flag is now the Ukrainian resistance symbol. It was originally used by the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (or Ukrains'ka Povstans'ka Armiya), which fought for the freedom of the country in 20 century. They didn't fight for ideas of Nazism - the idea beyond was to gain freedom from the Soviet Union or any other dictatorship regime in any possible way. However, some units might participate in both sides of WW2.
BEAUTIFUL video!!! So emotional and educational. Amazing work. All my love, respect and support to the people. Slava Ukraini.

@@adamt-uz3og that's what russian propaganda wants you to believe. If you really look into this topic and investigate, you will see that it's simply not true. By the way, did you create your account just today only to write this comment? 🤭
@@adamt-uz3og and what you think ruzzist soldiers die for ha? Freedom? GLORY? Nah they get send to ukraine because putler say so and he's dreaming to bring back ruzzist empire and become emperor but so far it's only happen in his head while his zombie army die just to fulfill his greed for power
@@adamt-uz3og Meanings change. The earliest usage of this flag happened during the 12th century. Currently it's an unofficial war flag.
Edit: This is what the Ukraine Crisis media center writes:
Russian propaganda is still _demonizing_ the red-and-black flag to portray it as the symbol of Ukranian "fascism" and "nazism" used by Ukranian "far-right-nationalists" to kill Jews and Poles.
In fact, the black-and-red flag is depicted in the painting "Reply of the Zaporozhian Cossacks" by _Ilja Repin_ , which was created back in 1880-1891
The black-and-red flag was never officially adopted as a symbol of the Ukranian Insurgent Army (UPA) and the Organization of Ukranian Nationalists. However, it was used in Ukraine's national _liberation struggle_ in the XX century
The flag was actively used during the Revolution of Dignity and the Russo-Ukranian war as a _symbol of freedom_ and the fight for an independent Ukraine. Black means Ukranian land and red - Ukrainian blood spilled for Ukranian liberty
Thank you for support 💙💛
Glory to Heroes!
@@adamt-uz3og that is what russian propaganda tells us during the decades to bring the disagree into the society. The truth is that many of crimes were made by soviet soldiers and the lie was told that it was done by Ukrainian soldiers

@@bondarovachenko719 What does that have to do with the German public supporting Ukrainian people?
@@bondarovachenko719 As usual, the eternally deceitful and hypocritical Russian is trying to distort history. What can you tell us about the Pact of Molotov Ribbentrop
As someone who lives in Ukraine, I wanna thank you for showing to the world what ruzzia has been doing to our beloved Ukraine.
As a Ukrainian who fought against Russia in 2014 it hurts me to hear "The war started in 2022". Considering you said it in Ukraine it says something. About my fellow Ukrainians :(
It did start in 2014, history doesn't care how you feel, not trying to be offensive here.
The war started in 2022. It's like there were battles before 1st of September 1939 and yet that's what we consider the start of the war.
@@nikolavideomaker Well its not so black and white, mamy historians actually argue that WWII started in 1937 with Japan's invasion of China.
I agree that the low intensity conflict in Donbas since 2014 and the full scale invasion of 2022 are not the same, but it ia more than just "his feelings" that Ukraine and Russia were engaged in hostilities since then and for many soldiers who served during that time the war was very real.
@@nikolavideomaker no. You are not correct. War started at 2014. When 3 ukrainian regions was occupied by russians troops and we had few horrible fights at Donetsk airport, debaltsevo, savur mohyla.
Only in 2014 russian militaries killed more than 3000 ukrainian civilians and more than 4000 ukrainian militaries.
And during 8 years thousands of ukrainians lived under russian occupation, like my parents for example.
@@nikolavideomaker More than 14,000 people were killed in the War in Donbas before Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine on 24 February 2022. They're 2 distinct periods of the broader Russo-Ukrainian War, but I would say the fighting was intense enough and the casualties high enough to classify the conflict beginning in 2014 as "war".

But because of one of the most corrupt governments it's one of the poorest contries of Europe
@@user-uz7os9vm7i It's because many subsequent corrupted govs were executing russian's orders in Ukraine. It started to gradually change since 2004, and that is why russian's cannot tolerate Ukraine any longer. Russians just don't want to let a neighbour country to become democratic and not corrupted, because they expect everyone to be in deep hole, as russians always were.
Russians in their own country are not able to work, nor to establish not corrupted government. Therefore they are stealing and destroying other countries, as well as they are corrupting politicians and trying to establish corrupted governments.
@@karfrancouzsky9725 such a bull. Russia is way less corrupt country with much higher GDP per capita. Ukraine has had 9 years of very pro-western government and even almost a year of intense war, but corruption is still there and it's huge!
I'm gonna guess you're in Chicago and that Ukrainian Credit Union is right by a Burger King
He's gone from the first Afghanistan episode, where he made a plethora of mistakes, to THIS. He's come a long way, and it's been a wild 8.5 year ride so far.

I did not expect to see them in the same video, and also on an English-language channel. I am impressed.
I'm not Ukrainian. The ceremony of the fallen soldier, where they knelt to honor him was so touching. I wish the best for Ukraine. Slava Ukraina.
Did you notice the armbands that some of them were wearing? Those weren't just any regular soldiers, they were far-right ultra-nationalist fighters... They probably wanted to be filmed precisely for the good publicity.
@@ty-ix9lu I don't care if they were far right or left. They are defending their country. They are sacrificing their lives to protect their people. That's an honourable action.
Invading another country... not so much.
It's kinda like if Mexico invaded the US and the KKK joined the fight to defend America. That's great and all, but we still shouldn't admire the KKK or give them publicity.
A blatant lie. These are red-black bands, the "resistance" flag of Ukrainians, which often used in military. They literally explained in the video its meaning and what it is. Also these bands are being used as an identification of a soldier on the battlefield. Russians wear white bands, for example.

Can you explain the role of black and red flag? I read that this organisation was involved in killing of civillians. And is condemned in Poland. I don't get why it's promoted in Ukraine.
@@schlechtgut8349 Today it represents the Ukrainian blood spilled on the black Ukrainian soil, it represents our fight for freedom and glorifies those who died in the fight for our nation. It is also what the traditional blue and yellow flag looks like when stained by blood of the heroes.
I’m a malaysian and I really feel pity for the the Ukrainians like they are trying to live a normal life while in WAR. I couldn’t even imagine life like that so, love from malaysia 🇲🇾!
Thank you for support 💙💛
The guide in Lviv forgot to say that Lviv was a Polish city. Ruthenians were peasants.
Thanks for kind words!!!

Do you want Russia to be invaded by Ukraine? (If yes I will not respect you)
Thank you my brother! We know here that you would fight for your liberty as we! We all saw your choice in face of Manny Pacquiao!
Big thank you ♥️
@@DallasKaiiran no
@@DallasKaiiran why ukraine wanted to invade ruzzist, they just wanted to mind it's own business and wanted to liberated all stealing land from ruzzist, thats it. Nothing more.
Thank you for telling the world about Ukraine! 💛💙
I hope that one day Ukraine can recover from its impact of the war, love for Ukraine from New Jersey, U.S! 🇺🇸 🤝 🇺🇦
Thanks our American friend! We hope on it too, we hope that war will ended, ended by our Victory, and finally Ukraine nation again can live well, just live, like other people in the world. And it will be your victory too, American military help, making our on step closer to victory! Glory to Ukraine, In God We Trust!
thank you!
Would you like to see life in Iraq? Syria? Afghanistn? Iran? That kind of life what you gave to these countries with your American democracy. You are not better than Russia. At least Russia doesn't lie and doesn't bring it as Democracy.
@@rgvolx8247 Who invaided Iraq and Syria?? ruzzia DO lies - "libearaiting russian speaking people", "Biological weapon" etc BS
As a Norwegian, i fully support every decision of this trip and ukraine. Long Live Ukraine!!
Thank you for support 💙💛
Thanks a lot, we appreciate it really much! 🇺🇦
Thanks!
thank you!
It's disgusting the profits Norway has made from this situation
Croatia and Bosnia are still trying to get rid of all the mines..
First, my thought was "Paul youre stupid for going" but now I feel like I wish we had someone like you to promote our cause and help the world see the suffering when we were going through the same.
🇭🇷❤️🇺🇦
Slava Ukrajini!
What a beautiful country is Croatia. I was shocked to know that even close to Plitvitsky lakes there may be some mines. Now we will have same for long time. Hope we will be able to have your country experience to get rid of mines after war end
@@Postelnikov The first Croatian police officer killed by Serb rebels was killed in Plitvice. The region, Lika, where Nikola Tesla is from is also where my grandparents are from. Their village being 10kms from Nikola Teslas birthplace. Unfortunately Serbs commited a lot of atrocities around that region and it was occupied for 4 years. Its a mountainous area so a lot of places are still to be cleared. Although most of the 1,5 million mines have been cleared, still it poses a great danger.
EDIT: I am sure Croatian deminers will assist Ukrainians with their experiences and knowledge in clearing Ukraine from mines if needed.
@@RicoBanani As an Albanian, I only endeavor and embrace the beauty of Croatia without looking towards the ambience of the Yugoslav wars, standing side by side at own belief(s), I hope Croatia solves that mine issue so it’s true beauty cannot be restricted
Going to Croatia this summer, gonna take the route down the coast (Zadar, Split and then to Makarska hopefully.) Croatia’s beauty shouldn’t go unnoticed. Side by side! 🇦🇱🤝🇭🇷
@@RicoBanani Tesla is such a great human being. I wonder what happened to his whole extended family which lived in that region until WW2.
Whenever they mention mines I remember all our signs of "pazi mine!" When I moved to the Western Europe, my first shock was being able to freely walk through random remote forests and fields
Thank you for going and showing every thing you did. ❤
The Ukrainians are the most friendly and hospitable people. I have been been to Kiew again and to the Carpathians this summer. It is an underestimated beautiful country.
sure sre u didnt saw east
Im from Latvia. I have watched your videos for really long time and seeing this made me understand how brave you are. I am half-ukranian myself and it's been really hard to see people you know loose their loved ones, home, peace. I've been doing some work to help refugees and it's heartbreaking to listen to people who lost their home, everything they've been building for their life.
Thank you for support 💙
thank u! ❤🩹
Nice to see someone else from Latvia in the comment section :)
Latvia doing so mutch for Ukraine! paldies)
Have never been so proud of people, I promise I will help as much as I can after coming of age. I dont want anyone to suffer because of my country, it is so frustrating how things are turning out, but I believe love and careness can save the world and Ukranians from this video are the great example, pray for Ukraine
Thank you for being brave and supporting Ukraine !
As a Taiwanese, the video hit me different. It not only moved me, but also left me heartbroken. I couldn't help but cry while watching it.
Ever since the war broke out in 2022, many people, including Taiwanese, have compared the international situation in Taiwan to that of Ukraine. It is difficult to imagine one's peaceful hometown turning into a war zone one day. The video showcases both the beauty of the country and the brutality of war.
The Ukrainian people are incredibly brave for fighting for their country. Ukraine is an amazing country, rich in culture and history. I hope that the war ends soon, and I dream of one day visiting Ukraine.
Слава Україні!
The Republic of China is a genocidal settler colonial state and Taiwan belongs to the Formosan peoples. The PRC's claim on it is completely valid, you're not a victim.
@@Enceladus2106 Yes, ROC is genocidal settler colonial state and Taiwanese people are trying to get rid of the whole "China" from both ROC and PRC.
There are lots of movement to decolonized Taiwan from "China" nowadays. You can check it.
Besides, the PRC government even don't recognize the Formosan people in many ways. (e.g. They prohibit people to call them indigenous people and claim them are part of southern Chinese branch instead of austronesia people)
I don't get your logic .
If Taiwan become part of PRC, the Formosan peoples will loss their culture and identity more quickly.

Greeting from Bratislava. Thank you for this video and for your courage to visit our neighbors during these difficult times. There is a lot of Ukranian people now here as well and I am happy that our city welcomed them and help them to create a Ukranian community here, however I know, they most likely would want to just go back to their homes.
Thank you for help, that really means a lot for us)
What an amazing video! Greetings from Czech Republic 🙌
You're one of those brave guys, thanks for sharing your trip with us. Glory to Ukraine!💙💛
Lviv was the last place I visited before moving to NZ from Berlin. One of the most soulfull city's i ever been too. Hold firm, the world is with you
I visited Lviv in 2016 without knowing much about the city or Ukraine in general, and I must say that it was one of the most pleasantly surprising cities I've ever seen. The architecture, the atmosphere, the charm... It felt like a mini Prague without the tourist masses. Truly a hidden gem.
I wish to return soon in a peaceful Ukraine
Ukraine seems like such a cool place. I would love to visit one day. Keep fighting Ukraine! The World is rooting for you! 🇺🇸🇺🇦
Come to us, please! But only when it will be safe to do so:)
_>Keep fighting Ukraine..._

As a Ukrainian, I can't help but leave a comment. I'm truly grateful that you spread the truth. Thank you for your support. Love from free and independent Ukraine
I'm Ukrainian, but now live in Canada. So nice to see Lviv and I so much miss it and my family of course. Thank you ❤
This is so shocking omg. Not only I felt moved, but sad at the same time. It's heartbraking 💔 ( but what actually caught my attention the most is the histories)
I'm a Malaysian, but super into European histories so much. Seeing this video rlly felt like I'm in there. The maps, buildings, statues, red and black flag, I learnt them all, but the extra infos and explanations from that Ukranian woman rlly made my day (idk I'm just, happy). Luv this video, and I'm gonna watch it again and again several times. This is now one of my fav vids list. Keep it up
one interesting fact about red-black flag, if blood drops onto blue-yellow flag it become red-black one.
thanks for support
@@Wise___Man Yes! I already know it. Thanks for the info too as well. Hope peace for Ukraine again 🇺🇦
Slava Russiya!
Red and black flag it's nazi Bandera who murderer about 60,000 polish civils in Wołyń masacre
she was straight up lying about the flag kmao, it was the flag that Bandera people used during ww2 and they murdered 200k Polish civilians just because. Also she didnt mention that Lviv was for the most part a Polish city but said that they had Nazis there lmao.

Nice architecture , hope you enjoy the hospitality
I mean me being an American born and raised here but both parents from Ukraine, has been odd for me. I always wanted to visit Ukraine to learn more about that place and my mom would always tell me stories. A lot of my relatives live there or have moved to America as well (some due to war). For me it's such an odd place to be because I don't really feel like America is my home but Ukraine I can't really call it home either. I try my best to support Ukraine by donating money and such. English though happened to be the third language I learned when I was young it was first Ukrainian, then Russian, then English. Also where I grew up and still am at is pretty ghetto and about the least place with Ukrainians. I actually speak African American Vernacular English and due to that people get shocked when I start speaking fluently Ukrainian or Russian, even Ukrainians I have met! 😂 I feel like it is a privilege though to get to experience both worlds and I think has contributed greatly in who I am today.
The most insane thing I can’t wrap my head around is that if a missile hits your area, life still happens. You still have to go to work and do whatever you normally do.
you still have to do your homework too
And you still have spongebob walking around
@@ExplosiveBean1 And you still have to get Barbs drunk.
Franz Kafka was right.

For any Ukrainian reading I just want to say we in Bulgaria are with you. I'm glad so many Ukrainians could come here to be safe.
Thank you brothers and sisters 💗
I'm a Ukrainian in Bulgaria. Thank you for being welcoming!
thank you❤ your support gives us wings and forces to fight as long as it need
all Ukrainians are aware of all the help Bulgaria is providing during the last years and especially during the war, Ukrainians never forget true friends
thanks to you and your country
Thank you, your support is very important to us❤️
Great job, young man! I loved this video.
When you entered Kyiv, I actually gasped. You went by the highway that I would usually take when going to visit my grandma and back, and I immediately recognized the road, the church, even a building where my parents used to rent a flat for us for a couple of years. Some parts of the video truly brought me to tears. Away from home, I miss it very much right now, despite how imperfect it was and continues to be. I hope you had a nice trip! Thank you for this
Thank you for this great great video about my country! I’m in Canada now and it was nice to see our cities and you standing near the KYIV sign. It is at the road that goes straight to my house, in PETROPAVLIVSKA BORSHCHAHIVKA ❤
Almost cried, especially during the section with the landmines and the destroyed buildings. It suddenly got very familiar (Bosnia and Croatia). I pray for peace, no more brother wars. Slava Ukrajini

It is so sad that my only impression of your city is that video from years ago where the thugs are beating an old man with a hammer. I wish your city more peace ahead and hope it is known for many other better things!
Love to Dnipro from Poltava 🇺🇦
My Aunt is from and grew up in Odessa, and she came to America immediately after the USSR collapsed. While most of her family got out of Ukraine just before the war started, her brother is still in Odessa. We thought he was going to be called to fight but they said they have way more than enough people fighting for them.
Despite that money is tight, and stores are cleared out and we sent him money and food. We continue to pray for him and the rest of Ukraine
They're literally kidnapping men from the streets now. The only ones not getting pressed into the meat grinder are those who can bribe their way out of service.

Are Russians not the people of Europe? or is it from your Nazi ancestors the legacy of dividing people according to certain criteria?
oh great-grandson of the Nazis, you don’t forget your history there and it’s better to review what your grandfathers did
@@mika.t9161 I don't know what you're talking about and I think you aren't either. Plus you don't know me thus don't know if I am a great grandson of a Nazi. Of course Germany has a difficult past but what has that to do with the current topic and what is wrong about not wanting war and people killing each other? Spread your negativity somewhere else.
Aggressively Loving
Germany need to raise or you finish, only allowed max numbers of soldiers in you army, what a shame to once a great nation.. We need drive our overlord out of Europa, side with Russia and raise. We can share Europa what is important is we get rid of Yankees influence. Just don't cross the line this time and we can work something out, Europa is too be liberated!
@@mika.t9161 why are you trying to compare what his great grandpa did ?? Like bro they’re not the same at all
As a half polish person i was/am devastated by the war happening and the absurdity and injustice of it all. I got VERY teary eyes during the Q&A part of the video. Thank you for giving them a platform.
Well, the restaurant in Lviv looks better than 90% of the US restaurants for sure...
This was incredible to see and what an experience!!!
