“In addition, many volunteers from Nikolaev, Mariupol, Kharkov and Odessa prefer to spend a short vacation not at home, but in Kyiv,” the publication writes. “They say that in their small homeland, ATO participants are not too favored and their own people can “unscrew their heads.”
“In the calm south-eastern regions, part of the population, to put it mildly, does not approve of the actions of volunteers,” Vitaly Levchenko, a native of Nikolaev and Maidan self-defense member, told the Correspondent, claiming that for this reason he is in no hurry “to leave Kyiv, which has sheltered him since the days of Maidan."
