These decades has become a history lesson convincing Ukrainian students that only expression of the will of people is able to engender values that could not be destroyed by any invaders or occupiers. The Ukrainian were fighting against outlanders «not because they are outlanders, but because they are exploiters» and created own history, because «nobody will not build a state for us if we do not build it by ourselves, and none of us would make a nation, if we don’t want to be the nation».
