We did not appeal to the Strasbourg court, considering that we are happy people and my child returned home. Ten years later, I think that it could be not entirely true. But some died loved ones, and we decided that they had a moral right to go to court. True, it is not particularly clear that an investigation is being conducted or attempts are being made to establish something. And there is no confidence that something will change. The case is opened or closed for ten years. There is no certainty that the matter will move.
Sometimes I hear from people that it is not worthless and bad from relatives to profit from and earn on the deaths of loved ones. I have heard this for ten years and I think that these statements are scored. For some, everything died, but the bulk of people filed lawsuits not so much for the purpose of cutting off money from the native state. It was an opportunity to force the state to force the government to investigate this case. People understand that if an antidote had been introduced to the child, he would be alive, everything would be fine. I understand the people who survived this and came out alive. In principle, now they live a normal full -fledged life. All these claims are an attempt by people to achieve the truth. People live with this pain.
It is very scary to watch people bury their children. I have never seen more terrible funerals in my life. I know a lot of people who are not going to give up. We will demand that we be told what happened. No one asks to hang out the formula of poisonous gas in social networks, just tell the doctors what to treat people from. I think to hide is just criminal. Someone's shaken health - on the conscience of people. They survived and were saved, and then they were left to die.
All these replies and excuses that the victims received at the Nord-Ost did not withstand any criticism. Everyone has the right to find out how his child or parents died. But still, many who died in the column "cause of death" have a dash.
In the early days in the turmoil, when they took the bodies from the morgues, someone had a “bullet wound” or “death from the influence of unknown gas”. And then all this information was simply cleaned. When we took Sasha from the hospital, we had an extract, but without the results of the tests. We were simply told that the tests are not ready.
I don't want to brand doctors. I know what terrible pressure doctors and heads of hospitals were subjected to. They tried to get through to hysteria on October 26, 2002 at least somewhere, someone in the Ministry of Health, to find out how to treat people. Nobody answered them to the doctors or asked not to call anymore. Imagine people are brought alive, and in hospitals they die.
I have no doubt about the professionalism of the special forces. Each of them cannot be sure that he will return to his wife and child in the evening. I have no complaints and questions to them, only gratitude.
To start a criminal case against salvation employees is a dead number. One of the high ranks should be responsible for this. Surely, when they made a decision on the assault, there were disagreements, who simply could not resist the decision, which were considered wrong. It is clear that the assault was preparing in advance, but, apparently, the rescue operation was prepared not with such thoroughness. Obviously, there could be more saved.
This year, the ten -year anniversary. Next year, the Nord-Ost will also be remembered, but there will be fewer publications, because the date will not be very round. Today there are many publications with memories, but the form interesting for the audience of the program "Let them talk." And I want another program, with other questions. I want a deeper investigation. Probably, we need to wait for something to change in the country. I hope that this is not ten years old.
