Three years after Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Ukrainian refugees in Sweden are expressing growing concerns about their future.

Kateryna Golod, who fled the war and founded the Ukrainian Cultural Association in Sweden, highlights the emotional toll of global political rhetoric.

She criticizes world leaders, including former U.

S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, for their statements, which she believes add stress to an already vulnerable community.

"We have fought for our lives and freedom, not for politics," she says.

The association provides a space for refugees to connect, share their struggles, and receive support, such as clothing donations.

Many refugees feel disillusioned and angry, questioning the intentions of global powers.

Golod emphasizes the need for compassion and understanding as they navigate an uncertain future.
