Like many Ukrainians, Snihur and Korniyev are still proud of the popular uprising and hopeful that their country will turn into a dignified European nation, “Ukraine is being born, it is in labor now, it is giving birth to a nation that will have a conscious national identity,” Snihur said during an interview in her family kitchen.
