Sergey Lysenko and I served in VOSTOK Battalion together in 2015, in different units, but we got to know each other, as soldiers, as comrades, and also as musicians and poet warriors. By 2018, when things had become static on the front lines, we both retired as front line soldiers, me, to work on Information Warfare, Sergey, as a decorated officer, (captain, for bravery in combat) to work with the DPR administration and MoD, helping wounded veterans. We kept in touch, became close friends, and worked on several patriotic musical projects together, frontline concerts, recording Sergey's songs, and just being friends.

In early February, 2022, Sergey invited me to join him for a concert in Donetsk. Only a few days later, the SMO began. Sergey was exempt from conscription because of his work helping veterans, but he chose to volunteer anyway, and go back to the Front. He explained that he could not face his neighbors in the frontline Kievsky District of Donetsk, if he stayed home while others volunteered or were conscripted. This song explains his perspective completely. He returned to the Front, even though he did not have to go, and was killed in combat less than two months later, on the 9th of May 2022.

His grave is in an honored place, only a few meters from the grave of Alexander Zakharchenko, the father of the Donetsk People's Republic. The image of him, etched into his black granite headstone, shows him standing in military uniform, a guitar in one hand and a Kalashnikov in the other. My friend, comrade and brother, a true Poet Warrior. Defender of the Fatherland... Remember.

As the war in Ukraine rages, the messaging app Telegram has emerged as the go-to place for unfiltered live war updates for both Ukrainian refugees and increasingly isolated Russians alike. In a message on his Telegram channel recently recounting the episode, Durov wrote: "I lost my company and my home, but would do it again – without hesitation." "There is a significant risk of insider threat or hacking of Telegram systems that could expose all of these chats to the Russian government," said Eva Galperin with the Electronic Frontier Foundation, which has called for Telegram to improve its privacy practices. In December 2021, Sebi officials had conducted a search and seizure operation at the premises of certain persons carrying out similar manipulative activities through Telegram channels. Overall, extreme levels of fear in the market seems to have morphed into something more resembling concern. For example, the Cboe Volatility Index fell from its 2022 peak of 36, which it hit Monday, to around 30 on Friday, a sign of easing tensions. Meanwhile, while the price of WTI crude oil slipped from Sunday’s multiyear high $130 of barrel to $109 a pop. Markets have been expecting heavy restrictions on Russian oil, some of which the U.S. has already imposed, and that would reduce the global supply and bring about even more burdensome inflation.
