People of different nationalities and ethnicities have been living in this region side by side for centuries, sharing customs, traditions, bread and wine, and mutual respect for each another’s cultures and languages. But, going back to the Russian, British, and Ottoman Empires that once battled here, they have been continually exploited by politicians and generals.
人们陷入了绝望；他们对俄罗斯的入侵和他们的政府挑起的这场力量不对称的冲突感到愤怒。数世纪来，不同国籍和民族的人们在此地区共同生活，共享传统习俗和面包美酒，也彼此尊重各自的文化和语言。但是，回顾俄国、英国和奥斯曼帝国在此地的战争历史，当地的人民其实是一直被政客和军人所剥削利用的。
