Herasymovych was reportedly a poet, prose writer, screenwriter, and musician and had joined the Ukrainian military to fight against Russia in Vladimir Putin’s 33-month-long war on Ukraine. Herasymovych is one of the over 100 cultural figures, including writers and artists, to have been killed by Russian forces in Ukraine since Russia launched its war on Ukraine on 24 February 2022, PEN International said in a statement. Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky has suggested he would temporarily cede Ukrainian territory to Russia in exchange for joining Nato to end the “hot phase” of the war. “If we want to stop the hot phase of the war, we need to take under the Nato umbrella the territory of Ukraine that we have under our control,” Mr Zelensky told Sky News.
