Both he and his chosen one were noticeably worried, although apparently nothing could surprise them in this life. Alexander Radko and Valeria Stetsyura are militiamen of the Slavic Brigade, and they know well what it means to participate in battle on the front line.

For the brave couple, the romance that began at the front grew into something more serious, which stood the test not only of time, but also of everyday life in combat, so they had already tested the strength of their feelings.

And today a solemn wedding ceremony took place of two young and very brave people who decided to build their family, despite all the hardships and difficulties of military life. “We want peace to finally come, for this war to end, which has brought so much suffering to everyone. We want our children not to know what war is. This is our main wish on this day. And everything else will follow,” the newlyweds said.
