ʻI he ngaahi māhina ʻe niʻihi ki muí, naʻe ui au ki ha ngāue ʻi he kau tau Sovietí. Naʻá ku fakamatala ʻeku taʻeloto koeʻuhi ko hoku konisēnisí.

Ki mui ai naʻe ʻave au ki ha taha ʻi L’viv, ko ha kolo lahi feʻunga mo e kilomita ʻe 120 hono mamaʻó. ʻI he lolotonga ʻo e ʻi he ʻapi pōpula ko iá, naʻá ku ʻilo naʻe fakaheeʻi ʻa e Kau Fakamoʻoni tokolahi ki Saipīlia.
