"If we can find a way to stop it and find a peaceful way to negotiate⁵, we need to make it now," Lampas said.

兰帕斯说：“如果我们能找到一种阻止它的方法，找到一种和平的谈判方式，我们现在就需要采取行动。”

Even though the two countries have their own cultures, "Russia and Ukraine always was like a brother, we are always ... close, we always help each other and even we look similar," said Shtefan.

施特凡说，尽管两国有各自的文化，“但俄罗斯和乌克兰一直就像兄弟一样，我们一直……很亲密，我们总是互相帮助，甚至我们长得很像。”

"We cannot believe that it's happened," Shtefan said, adding that he was worried for the safety of loved ones back home.

施特凡说：“我们简直不敢相信战争会发生。”他还补充说，他很担心家乡的亲人的安全。
