Gjoko Zajkov, football player / Morning briefing

I had some information that there were political problems. Some told me not to go to play in Ukraine. But in a conversation with more people I decided to go, he told Morning briefing Gjoko Zajkov, Macedonian football player from the Ukrainian FC Vorskla Poltava.

- For a long time, all the media wrote that there would be an invasion, but in the club where I am, everything was normal. The management of the club did not calm down that nothing would happen, they called us not to read the media, and if something happened it would happen in the east in the Donbas region and no one from the management believed that this would happen and we were all surprised, says Zajkov .

- Besides the Ukrainians, there are two other foreigners who failed to manage to leave. The rest of us who are foreigners organized ourselves with cars and managed to get out of the country. "The day they bombed Kyiv, we managed to get out," said Zajkov.
