Under the bombs, Ukraine’s most dramatic yes to Kiev

It happened, because it had to happen. It had to happen that even in the drama love could ignite, as well as dreams (for now) of a truce in Ukraine that are not yet seen. But in Kiev with camouflage and a veil, a frame was “staged” that gives hope not only to the couple who got married in one of the Capital’s Checkpoints but to the entire country tormented by the invasion of missiles, bombs and Russian tanks. . One day, for heaven’s sake, not a holiday but which in a certain sense indicates the prospect of the flow of life in the face of any and all difficulties, even catastrophes, even the least desired and perhaps not entirely unexpected. The photo describes everything: there is a veil but there are weapons and war: the desire is that they shut up soon. Then, there is the kiss together with the drama of a country that in Mariupol is under siege without electricity, water and gas with the inhabitants forced to re-hydrate themselves with the snow along the roads. There seem to be no rules, not even those agreed upon: humanitarian corridors and assistance are missing. For days we have been wondering why it happens, why it happened and if how long it will last. All predictions are impossible. Certainly, Pope Francis is right: “War is just madness”. The craziest of all.
