| + | My name is **Aleksandr**, | ||
| + | Today the hall stands empty. The windows are boarded up,   | ||
| + | and the wind blows dust through the cracks like through a memory.   | ||
| + | |||
| + | Many of us thought that after independence, | ||
| + | But the big investors went to Tallinn or Tartu.   | ||
| + | Here we were left with **cheap electricity** — and **expensive hope**.   | ||
| + | |||
| + | I retrained, first in construction, | ||
| + | Three times in ten years.   | ||
| + | And still they say: **“You’re too old.”**   | ||
| + | Sometimes I drive to Jõhvi or Sillamäe looking for work.   | ||
| + | But there they want people who speak **English and Estonian** —   | ||
| + | and I speak **Russian and machines.**   | ||
| + | |||
| + | Many of my friends went to Finland.   | ||
| + | Some send money home; others never come back.   | ||
| + | The city is **quieter**, | ||
| + | it’s the old who stay — and the young who dream.   | ||
| + | |||
| + | I often say: **Narva is like an engine without fuel.**   | ||
| + | Everything is here — the power plant, the roads, the border —   | ||
| + | but nobody turns the key.   | ||
| + | |||
| + | When I walk through the city, I see the old factory walls.   | ||
| + | They’re grey, but strong. And I think:   | ||
| + | maybe we don’t need new factories,   | ||
| + | but **new trust.**   | ||
| + | Trust that we can do something again.   | ||
| + | That we’re not just standing on the edge,   | ||
| + | but truly part of Estonia. | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | ++++ Background: | | ||
| + | |||
| + | //Aleksandr represents the generation that lived through the shift   | ||
| + | from the industrial to the post-industrial era.   | ||
| + | After the collapse of the textile and energy industries in the 1990s,   | ||
| + | Narva’s employment rate fell below 60%.   | ||
| + | Many residents had to retrain repeatedly or emigrate.   | ||
| + | Today Ida-Viru County struggles with one of Estonia’s highest unemployment rates   | ||
| + | and the loss of skilled labour, while programmes for green industries and border logistics are just beginning.   | ||
| + | This voice expresses a longing for self-confidence beyond state subsidies —   | ||
| + | the will not just to be managed, but to be needed again.// | ||
