Theme of the war between Russia and Ukraine. The main focus is on the two-headed Russian coat of arms. The Russian people have chosen a bird afflicted with Siamese twins disease as their symbol. They embrace it wherever they go. This shows that 140 million people have no present and no permanent place of residence, and these people do not notice the signs of illness in their coat of arms. Russians sacrifice their present for the sake of the past or the future. Russians, discontented with life, always roam the world seeking happiness. As a result, neighboring nations suffer, as has been the case with the Russian Empire, Soviet era, and now with the Erefia's occupation policy. This duality is reflected in all areas of Russian life, including the war against Ukraine. Therefore, I drew the plane as double, one part falling while the other rises, when the spirit of the Ukrainians is unidirectional - the fight against the occupier, when Ukrainian history and future firmly exist in the present, and the living space fully satisfies Ukrainian expectations.
