Валерій Харченко в гостях журналу Бористен



          P̲i̲c̲t̲u̲r̲e̲: Valery
Kharchenko after the concert among the defense warriors The life of our famous
city of Dnipro kobzar Valeriy Kharchenko is now, as a whole, same as the fate
of our wounded Ukraine-mother. Before his eyes: a burnt down home and a sick
wife. Yet Mr. Valery is not down. In spite of everything, kobzar Valeriy is a
frequent visitor to the war front lines where he entertains Ukrainian troops
with his singing and his Kobza playing.Mr. Valeriy has traveled many the
checkpoints and military units , and everywhere, the defenders of the
Motherland anticipate and enjoy the free concerts of this Ukrainian kobzar, for
quite like it was in Ukraine all the centuries ago a kobzar remains a people's
minstrel: the voice and the soul of our Ukrainian nation. No wonder that
Valeriy Kharchenko's songs penetrates deeply into the hearts of the defenders
of our Fatherland, and just like centuries ago Ukrainian people are nourished
by the kobzar's song and there is a strong belief, that despite the heavy
weight of the fate,we will overcome all the enemies, because Ukrainians who are
descendants of the Zaporozhian Cozacks, are invincible as long as the ancestral
songs are alive in Ukrainian soul" So wrote about Valery Kharchenko, a
well-known Ukrainian kobzar, winner of the festivals of the Ukrainian song
festival "Oberih" and "Chervona Ruta", a volunteer
performer for the Ukrainian troops of this war with Russian invader, a Dnipro
city journalist Anfisa Bukreyev two years ago in the Ukrainian newspaper
"Day", "Ukraina Moloda"( Mr.V.Kharchenko's house was
arsoned on October 29, 2014, and his appeal for help was aired on the First
National TV Channel, "Radio Liberty", in many regional information media).
However, despite all this, the kobzar is still in dear need of help. For the
absence of any tangible help, Valery Kharchenko turned to the Ukrainian weekly
"Bridge", and through that- to the Ukrainian diaspora of America, :
--My dear friends, colleagues and patriots of Ukraine !!! There is a war and we
are very hard at this time. My house was burned and I was left without
anything. After the arson my wife had a stroke and ended up with a bulbar
paralysis, she can not speak and has difficulties with eating. In such a
terrible state of health my wife and I continue living in the small hut that
used to be our out-door summer kitchen. The place has no heating or plumbing
and wasn't built to be used as a place of permanent living. On the terrible
night of arson my wife and I were awakened and so rescued by a refugee from
Luhansk,whom we had given a temporal shelter in our summer kitchen. This war
regugee saw a flame and woke us up. We jumped out of the burning house with
only our night shirts on. It took the fire brigade entire half-an-hour to
arrive, and then it turned out their water hoses were torn and badly leaking.
When the firemen were finished, practically everything was burned down. For the
fourth year we live now in a small summer kitchen which is more like a shed.
The authorities promised to help restore the house, but that help barely covers
the expense of drugs for my wife. I knocked at every door of the city
authorities, sent letters to deputies and everywhere possible, but all my
appeals were redirected to the city mayor's office. And there one official
simply told me : There is war in the country and all the funds are for ATO. I
explained but to no avail that my house was arsoned by the pro-Russian elements
in the neighbourhood (everyone knows,that Russia supports a huge 5th column in
the city of Dnipro),precisely because I was always very outspoken about the
Russian invasion of Ukraine,was active as a patriot of Ukraine in supporting
our troops : taking drugs and other supplies for our soldiers in ATO, visited
the front lines with concerts,etc. However as of now, I'm left alone with my
problems and all I'm left with is to hope in the help of good people.( The
Private Property and Health insurance doesn't exist in Ukraine, so the
restoration of the burnt house and the continued treatment of my wife Victoria
is now in need of moral and material support of people of good will. Only the
house repair requires 10.000 USD. !...) So, I appeal to all Ukrainians who will
be indifferent to our trouble: Please help, good people ! Do not let my sick
wife and myself be buried in the ruins of our burned house! All information
about us can be found on the Internet, it is enough to type "Valeriy
Kharchenko kobzar". My phone: + 38-098-505-2947. Bank details: Visa Electron
