"The war started and I was like, 'oh, now I don't know at all.' What if this invasion won't go well? In the months or even in a week, [what if] there's no more Ukraine anymore, and there will be like Russia, and then who knows if my papers will be valid and if I even will be able to apply for visa again? Or maybe they will make a laws like no, you will never move out from this country. But luckily everything went well," Chorna said.Rep.
Meanwhile, Chorna, who's from the city of Zhytomyr, started by hiding in a small village with her family, then moving west to Lviv before going to Poland. "We worked with them first through one federal bureaucracy and then another, urged him to get his wife out of Ukraine and into Poland, eventually talking to the embassy in Poland trying to cut through the red tape," Doggett said."I moved a lot in Ukraine first and I went to Poland and I was so exhausted with all these emotions and everything that when I got to United States, it was like, okay, I need to live here, I will live here.
