Polish woman living in Lviv for 22 years: "Ukraine has always existed as a state"

Katarzyna Łoza has lived in Lviv for 22 years, arriving when Poland joined the EU, and says she cannot imagine living anywhere else. She describes the city as a metropolis of nearly a million people with the feel of a much smaller town, where everything is within reach — at least in the historic centre. She is frustrated by Poles who claim Ukraine never existed as a state.
