    • 2022 March 23, Serhij Kovalenko, quoting Denys Prokopenko, “«Ми досить міцні, щоб кров’ю і потом відвойовувати нашу землю…» – Герой України Денис Прокопенко ["We are strong enough to reconquer our land, by blood and sweat…" - Hero of Ukraine Denis Prokopenko]”, in АрміяInform, archived from the original on 3 April 2022:
      До речі, Денис — потомок етнічного карела, який чудом уцілів у Зимовій війні 1939-1940 рр., тому для нього захист України — справа особиста: «Таке відчуття, що я продовжив ту саму війну, але на іншій ділянці фронту, війну проти окупаційного режиму Кремля. У мого діда була така жахлива ненависть до комунізму, до більшовизму, до Совка… Уявляєш, що таке втратити свою родину? Тобто, всі його брати загинули, рідня…»
      Do reči, Denys — potomok etničnoho karela, jakyj čudom uciliv u Zymovij vijni 1939-1940 rr., tomu dlja nʹoho zaxyst Ukrajiny — sprava osobysta: “Take vidčuttja, ščo ja prodovžyv tu samu vijnu, ale na inšij diljanci frontu, vijnu proty okupacijnoho režymu Kremlja. U moho dida bula taka žaxlyva nenavystʹ do komunizmu, do bilʹšovyzmu, do Sovka… Ujavljaješ, ščo take vtratyty svoju rodynu? Tobto, vsi joho braty zahynuly, ridnja…”
      By the way, Denis is the descendant of an ethnic Karelian who miraculously survived the Winter War of 1939-1940, so for him the defense of Ukraine is a personal matter: “It feels like I continued the same war, only on another section of the front, a war against the occupation regime of the Kremlin. My grandfather had such a terrible hatred for communism, for Bolshevism, for the Sovok… Can you imagine what it's like to lose your family? I mean, all his brothers perished, his kinfolk…”
