An 18-year-old gunman with possible ties to Russia shot a highly controversial Ukrainian nationalist, Iryna Farion. Her life's work divided Ukraine, yet her death did the opposite.
This essay was so very helpful. While I was aware of the assassination, I had no understanding of who Farion was and what her politics were. We saw a similar reaction to when a sniper shot at former President Trump. Although many of us, myself included, detest the man's politics, no rational person welcomes political violence.
I just recently read this article, and I have to say this is one of the best ones from you. I finally understood who she was, you wrote about both positive and negative aspects, with lots of details. So big thanks to you, this is a high quality article, I do appreciate your time writing it!

Thanks Patricia! I'm glad this cleared up some confusion for you. Let me know if anything else in Ukraine news needs a deep dive!

Thank you!! It's one of my favourites as well, actually. I love to unpack such controversial topics, although it is intimidating at times.
