[Witness spoke in Ukrainian, interpreted as follows:]
They are obviously in very difficult conditions. The areas where they live are under occupation. The main issues that Ukrainian farmers encounter in the occupied territories are the following.
The occupation forces ask them to live according to Russian laws and to register as Russian enterprises. Whoever objects to this can see their grain confiscated. In addition, Russia will take away their business if they see that the farmers are not complying. In the Kherson and Zaporizhzhia areas that are under occupation, we see that Ukrainian farmers are not complying with the Russian demands and are trying to survive. They spend more time in the fields. They try to prevent Russians from finding them. They are evacuating their family members. They're making it complicated for the occupation forces to find them and to communicate with them.
The occupation forces, despite their complete cruelty, are also trying to use this as a publicity stunt. They're trying to use this to calm the local population, get them to register as a Russian business, and then show on TV that everything is peaceful and the farmers are happy. But we see that this is not working. Even Russians watching Russian television do not believe that this is the case.
Farmers are just taking it day to day. Every day they're making new pretexts to run away or avoid the occupation forces.
