The UN condemned Russia’s illegal annexation of Ukraine. Are there any benefits?
We already knew that Russia’s annexations were illegal like the previous ones. We knew it too, and they were condemned by many countries. They are all following the same colonial conquest plan, and Putin has done it again because what he needs is propaganda.
They say about his last book that he had a vision of what is happening right now. Is it because Europe is looking the other way?
Yes, if you analyze the situation, you could see that it came from the Orange Revolution of 2004 and what happened in Crimea ten years later. Putin’s power is based on crises, ruptures, borders… Western countries imposed sanctions at that time and it is clear that they saw what was happening, but gradually they lost interest and looked the other way. Even though they didn’t realize it until now, that was the big mistake. We are living this war in Ukraine, which has always been a central country for Europe, as Putin is no longer young and needs to strengthen his leadership. It is so central and visible that it cannot be seen, but it has been its granary since classical Athens. It continues to be Europe’s breadbasket, although we didn’t care about it until recently.

What is the current situation of Ukrainian babies born from a surrogate mother?
In the spring there was a lot of international news about the condition of newborns in bomb shelters and the lack of medical personnel, there was only one for dozens of children. I know donations are enabled and humanitarian organizations are able to deliver babies to their families.
Is the business still running?
Foreign clients can no longer go to clinics, and many Ukrainian women have fled as refugees. However, this migration benefits trafficking, and as the economic situation of women is even worse than before the war, trafficking and surrogacy work continues abroad. Such agencies even have Ukrainian staff, refugees also have easy access to them.
