A possible ceasefire may be on the negotiating table, but many ordinary Ukrainians will still maintain a deep mistrust of Russia. "My biggest worry is that if they resume their aggression after a truce, the sacrifices we make every day will be in vain," says Tetiana Vatsenko-Bondareva who lost her husband in the invasion.
