I live in Russia and love Ukraine very much, where I have been countless times. On the morning of February 24th, I woke up and in horror couldn't believe what was happening. I sat on the bed, looked out the window, exchanged messages with my closest ones, and tried to comprehend all this horror. I called my friend in Kyiv, and she told me that for 6 hours she had been driving by car to the west of the country together with her little daughter, a dog, and three suitcases... Now my closest friends are freezing in Kyiv and walk up to the 22nd floor when there is no electricity, and I cannot understand how in the 21st century such things can be done to closest neighbors. I am incredibly worried about what is happening and I believe that this will end, and that at least some of those responsible will be punished. As soon as it becomes not deadly dangerous, I will begin to actively resist here, in Russia. "Meduza" helps us feel the rhythm of life and adequacy, and the knowledge that hundreds of thousands of people who think like me read it gives me hope. Support "Meduza", please. Those who make it are heroes.
