Yurt of invincibility in the city of Dnipro – the opening of the sixth yurt within the project

Good afternoon, my name is Serhii Nahornyak, People’s Deputy of Ukraine, head of the Ukraine-Kazakhstan inter-parliamentary friendship group

Today, March 7, we are opening the sixth Kazakh yurt in the city of Dnipro. The idea of this project appeared at the beginning of winter when we met with Kazakh businessmen and discussed what the citizens of Kazakhstan can do to help Ukrainians in such a difficult period. When we discussed ideas and potentially possible assistance by talking with businessmen Daulet Nurzhanov Yerkin Tateshev and Kanat Kabaev, we were initially talking about high-power generators that were purchased by these businessmen for Ukrainian hospitals. Then the idea came up in the conversation that since heating points called unbreakable points are being opened in Ukraine, it would be good to install a Kazakh heating point – a Kazakh yurt of unbreakableness, and colleagues supported this idea. Daulet Nurzhanov took over the financing of this project.

Fist yurt in Ukraine

Already after the new year, on the eve of Christmas, on the sixth of January, we opened the first yurt of invincibility in the city of Bucha. To which there was a very sharp reaction of Moscow. I know that the outraged Mr. Lavrov called his colleague in Kazakhstan asking why this yurt appeared in Buch. The Russians understand how much grief they have brought to Ukraine and how much grief they have brought to the city of Bucha, in particular. And they understand what a yurt is for Kazakhstan. Russia was very outraged by this, within a few days the official comment of Mrs. Maria Zakharova appeared. She officially requested a comment from the Kazakh side, so that Kazakhstan would comment on why these yurts began to appear in Ukraine and whether official Kazakhstan has anything to do with it. To which the Kazakhs, in their Kazakh style, correctly sent them for the Russian warship, for which we are very grateful to them.

Then we opened a second yurt in Kyiv. After Kyiv, we installed yurts in the cities of Kharkiv, Lviv, Odesa, and today this is already the sixth yurt now in the city of Dnipro. The city in which the plane arrived on January 14, is in this area nearby, in the residential building where a large number of Dnipro people died. We are Dniproans together and thus want to support them in difficult times. Dnipro is a front-line city, a front-line region.

We plan to install such yurts in the city of Mykolaiv and an eighth yurt in Cherkaschyna. Perhaps additional sponsors will appear in this project and we will be able to install more such yurts. Initially, it was planned to install six such yurts. The yurt was purchased directly for the city of Dnipro by a businessman, his name is Oscar, he does not give his last name because he may have certain difficulties doing business in Kazakhstan, he asked to leave his last name unnamed. Today is Oscar’s birthday and we gave him a birthday present. He has a friend in the city of Dnipro – Andriy Moroz, who is a deputy of the regional council and asked us to install this yurt in the city of Dnipro. We agreed to that and today we made a small holiday for the Dnipro people, we want the Dnipro people to be distracted, at least partially, from the events that are happening in Ukraine and that took place in January.

This project is support for the Kazakh people

Thus, this project is support for the Kazakh people and Kazakh business for Ukrainians. We want people in our yurt to be able to recharge their gadgets, if necessary, or to warm up in the cold season of winter, which has already ended like this, but the yurt has become more like a cultural center, where we will hold various cultural events, workshops for both children and adult. Today we saw that the military personnel came to the opening and the natives of Kazakhstan are choosing our victory together with us, for which we are sincerely grateful to them.

Glory to Ukraine, Alga Kazakhstan!
