People who live freely, choose freely, decide freely, and think freely are said to be free. It refers to the condition of being free of compulsion and restrictions on one's freedom of choice.

Choice and decision-making, as well as the power to act or alter without restriction, are all examples of freedom.

When we are born and open our eyes in this world, we believe that we are now free to do, think, and react as we wish. As we grow older, we believe that we will be able to buy things of our own choosing, that as we grow older, we will be able to choose what we should study and what should not, and we think that as we advance in our professional lives, we will be able to do as we wish. Unfortunately, we were wrong because everything went against our choice, our freedom, in certain cases; we are unable to breathe without the approval of superiors.

We are not truly free in this industrial environment; we are feeling uneasy in the chemical era, and we are unable to make decisions about our lives, such as whether we want to live or not. This horrible world grew even crueler when the atomic competition started between affluent nations; they began developing weapons and never considered food, shelter, or poverty; as a result, the gap between rich and poor widened with each passing day, and the drama began. An annexation, cruelty, and an invasion story started the tale of the affluent and poor began, as did the story of the mighty and weak, as did the story of the atrocious and oppressed. Even poorer nations became research labs for other wealthiest nations.

The Oppressed Ukrainians.

Many states were destroyed, some decreased, and others increased in terms of borderland, and Russia is one of them that increased its border, so now out of seven content, one is with this country. However, this nation's hunger for capturing more land never ends, and they have begun to invade many of its neighboring countries.

Basically, her objective was to gain access to hot water from other countries. Although Russia has a large geographical area, 75 percent of it is unusable due to harsh winter conditions; therefore she needs to gain access to hot water to continue exporting to certain other countries. She invaded Afghanistan in 1979 with the idea of achieving her goal, but she never succeeds and returns empty-handed.

“When diplomacy fails, war will happen”.

This is not the first time that Russia and Ukraine have been in conflict. Since 2014, when Russia seized Crimea and occupied Ukraine's eastern Donbas area, the two nations have been in conflict. Since then, combat has continued on Ukraine's eastern border. More than 100,000 Russian troops have gathered on Ukraine's eastern borderland to conduct massive military maneuvers with advanced battle equipment along Belarus' northern border.

Russia's "might is right" game affected their bilateral ties throughout 2021 and 2022, when Russian troops crossed the Ukrainian border, causing tension and making the situation warlike, despite UN intervention, which warned Russia of dire consequences, but Russia never listened and annexed Ukraine. According to the UN refugee agency, UNHCR, more than 2.5 million people have fled Ukraine in the previous two weeks, and the UN reported 549 civilian fatalities and 957 wounded in Ukraine as of 10 March, albeit this figure is not believed to be correct but even expecting to more casualties. There were also 26 children killed among the victims.

The governor of Luhansk Oblast, Serhiy Haidai, claims that So far, Russian soldiers have taken over 70% of the Luhansk area in eastern Ukraine. Areas of the capital Kyiv that remained under Ukrainian control were subjected to constant shelling, and many civilians were injured or died as a result of this barbarism. Russian soldiers still intend to deepen their conquest and cut off Kyiv, Ukraine's capital.

Freedom protests for Ukraine:

People all across the globe have criticized Russia for this act of violence, and the international community stands with Ukraine at this terrible moment.

The European Union, the United Nations, and the United States have all imposed harsh and significant sanctions. Many European nations have stopped doing business with Russia and have severed off ties with Russia. Russia's neighbors’ are also involved and attempting to convince Russia to stop this insanity and come to the negotiating table, since problems are solved by talks, not conflict.

According to Aljazeera Thousands of people have protested the invasion in public places and Russian embassies throughout the world. More than 5,000 protestors have been imprisoned across Russia since Putin began the war on Ukraine, according to OVD-Info, which has been documenting crackdowns on Russia's opposition for years. More protests are expected in the following days in cities all across the world. Chelyabinsk, Moscow, Nizhny Novgorod, Novosibirsk, Perm, Saint Petersburg, Samara, and Yekaterinburg are among the Russian cities where protests have taken place.

Many other countries are urging Russia to cease its atrocities because, God forbid, if this conflict continues and other countries join in, a third global war would erupt, and the world will no longer be able to stand it.

Conclusion with condolence and hope:

I also personally condemned Russia's aggression against Ukraine, and I express my condolences to the Ukrainian people. My heartfelt sympathies and constant support are with those who have lost loved ones, homes, and everything, and I pray for those who have died in this tragic event. Believe me when I say that I am experiencing the same tension and sadness as our Ukrainian brothers and sisters; I can feel the pain of families who have lost everything; I can even sense the grief of women and children who are the weakest part of our society.

Despite the fact that I am at a loss for words, all I can say is that we are here for Ukraine. At this difficult time, I wish Ukrainians peace, comfort, bravery, and a lot of love. In this tough time, my heart goes out to you all.

I believe that the world will be a better place if we live our own lives and do not intervene in the lives of others; similarly, if countries focus on their own countries rather than intervening in the lives of others, and instead of developing heavy weapons of war and spending billions of dollars on them, they use and spend this money on health, education, and welfare, I believe the world will be a more peaceful place to live.

Let us pledge on this day that we will do our best and put in every effort to make the world a better place for ourselves and future generations.
