Sorokin and Glukhovsky called to stop the operation in Ukraine
Culture figures of Russia were calling to stop the military operation of Russia in Ukraine. The text of the appeal was published on his Facebook page by the writer and journalist Mikhail Zygar.
- The beginning of the Russian war against Ukraine is a shame.
This is our shame, but, unfortunately, our children, generations of very young and not born yet Russians will have to be responsible for it. We do not want our children to live in a aggressor country, so that they are ashamed of the fact that their army attacked a neighboring independent state. We urge all Russian citizens to say there is no this war.
We do not believe that independent Ukraine poses a threat to Russia or any other state. We do not believe in the statements of Vladimir Putin that the Ukrainian people are under the rule of the “Nazis” and needs to be “released”.
We demand to stop this war.
