Appeal of the editorial board of "Medusa" to Ukrainian readers
Dear readers "Medusa" in Ukraine!
From the first day of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, "Medusa" opposes this terrible war. It is necessary to stop the death of people as soon as possible. Russian troops should leave the territory of Ukraine.
Vladimir Putin has been preparing for war for more than one year, and in recent months he did it in the eyes of an extremely surprised world. However, we, like many others, did not believe that he would go for this crime. Because war with Ukraine is a catastrophe not only for Ukraine but also for Russia. But we were wrong.
It is futile to try to guess what is happening in Putin's head. He probably hates Ukrainians, considers the West weak and worthless, and Russians - people who will not be able to do without a leader. However, it was the President of Russia who made a decision that resulted in the Russian army crossed the border with Ukraine, and began to kill you - our friends, our neighbors, our loved ones.
Mariupol and Kharkiv. Irpin and Nikolaev. Crimea and Donbas. We will never forgive this Vladimir Putin.
Many in Russia ask themselves today: do we bear full responsibility for what began on February 24, 2022? Difficult to be responsible for the whole country. We can tell this as we understand ourselves within our editorial.
For us, responsibility is not just bitterness and shame. And not how we regret the past. For us, responsibility is the need to do something right now to change the situation. If we have not been able to prevent what happened, we should try to fix it.
Medusa appeared because its founders categorically disagreed with what happened in Russia. In particular, with the Kremlin's policy on Crimea and Donbass. For years, the Russian authorities have tried to destroy the "jellyfish" and other independent media. Our edition was declared by a foreign agent, and then our site was completely blocked. Despite this, millions continue to read us. Our main goal today is the same as before: to give voice to people who are in the most difficult circumstances; people whose lives were forever destroyed; People who have been condemned to difficulties, disasters and suffering.
Therefore, it is so important for us that the Ukrainians are the main characters of the Medusa materials about the war, that they are told to our readers about what is happening in their country.
Many residents of Russia still deny the obvious. Mostly believe that they see on TV - it is true. But we all, citizens of Russia, are obliged to feel this horror - the horror of what was done and done on our behalf. Only in this way we can - all together - to stop the war.
Our hearts - with Ukraine.
Medusa editorial board
Issue to Ukrainian readings from the editorial of "jellyfish"
Road readers "jellyfish" from Ukraine!
From the first day of the Rossius invasion in Ukraine "jellyfish" is proved to be this monster war. It is necessary as a confession to the destruction of people. The Russian Army Army Wands from the Territory of Ukraine.
Vladimir Putin was ready for war not for one hour, but in the last monses of the end of the eyes in the fond of peace - but we, as many many, did not verify that he was being released on this crunching. War Russia with Ukraine - a catastrophe is not only for Ukraine, but for Russia. We got lost.
It is safe to think that Putin is going to his head. Verovyno, he hates the Ukrainians, the decay is weak and nickname, and the Russian - people who can not be able to come without a leader. As it would be, the name of Putin has taken a little one, as a result of which Russian army crossed the border with Ukraine and began to kill you - our friends, our sosyades, our colors.
Mariupol and Kharkov. Irpen and Nikolaev. Crimea and Donbass. We are also not a simple Vladimir Putin.
Many in Russia are given an issue: we will carry all the fact that the 24 Fevral 2022 years began? It is difficult to open for the entire country. We can say that we are in our own editorial. For us, it is not only a mow and a stead. And not only mowing about. For us, it is necessary-this is necessary to make things right now, that it will change the situation. If we have not been shaken by the serving, then the arms will go to the right.
The coague of "jellyfish" appeared, so that the foundations were categorically not a common topics from the topics that would go to Russia. In the number of the Political Kremlin in the Crimea and Donbass. Holts of the Russian authorities dreamed of "jellyfish" and the second unusual shy. Our editorial was made by the "foreign agent", and then our site was blocked. Neshmotra on this, we are readily reading millions. Our leading task today is the same as the same: give a voice to the people who come in the very gravity of the position; People who were life -willed by the war; People who have been pushed on difficulties, soul and shook. It is so important to us that the Ukrainian heroes of "jellyfish" were of war, which were warned by the head of the Medusa.
Many dwellings of Russia are obviously obvious. The pre -reading is that it seems to be on the TV - so the truth is a monster. But all, the citizens of the Russian, the tied ones will look. We will be agitated by the Russian Russia, the topics that were sodejano from our name. That's how much we go - everything is to be inserted - it will outline the war.
Our heart - with Ukraine.

An appeal from Meduza's Newsroom to Ukrainian Readers
Dear Readers of Meduza in Ukraine!
From the Very Start of Russia's Full-Scale Invasion of Ukraine, Meduza Has OPPOSED THIS MONSTRUS War and Demanded An Immediate end to the Senseless Loss of Life. Russian Troops Must Leave Ukrainian Territory.
Vladimir Putin SPENT YEARS Planning This War, Making His Final Preparations in Plain Sight Before The Very Eyes of A Dumbfounded World. Like Many People, We Believed He Wuldn't Dare Committee This Crime. After All, A Full-Scale War Between UKRAINE AND RUSSIA Wuld be a Disaster Not Just for Ukraine But Also for Russia. We Were Wrong About the Russian President.
It's Pointless to Try to Guess What Goes on Inside Putin's Head. He Probably Hates UKRAINIANS, LIKELY CONSIDers The West to Be Weak and Inept, and Apparently Believes that Russianans Are People Who Cannot Survive Without A Great Leader. Regardless, It Was Putin Who Decides to Send the Russian Army Over the Ukrainian Border To Start Killing You - To Start Killing Our Friends, Our Neighbors, and Our Loved Our.
Mariupol and Kharkiv. Irpin and Mykolaiv. Crimea and the Donbas. We, Too, Will Never Forgive Vladimir Putin for This.
Many in Russia Now Are Asking The Question: Do We All Bear Resistance for this Invasion? It's Hard to Answer for an Entire Country. We Can Speak Only for Ourselves and Our Newsroom. As we see it, responsability is about more than bitterness and shame. And is not just regrets about the past. For US, Responsability Means the NEED to DO SOMETING RIGHT NOW TO CHANGE The SITATION. We failed to prevent this catastrophe, but we must try to file.
Meduza's Very Roots Go Back to Our Founders' Categorical Opposition to the Course of Events in Russia, Including Our Disagree Dith the Kremlin's Policies in Crimsea and the other. For Years, The Russian Authoritities have Tried to Destroy Meduza and Other Independent News Outlets. The Government Designated Our Publication A Foreign Agent and Later Blocked Our Website Entirely. Despite Tese Effrts, Millions of People in Russia Continue to Read US. Our Main Task Is The Same As Before: To Give A Voice to Those MOST VULNARABLE AND WHOSE LIVES THIS WARIA HAS DARAILED AND CONDEMned to Hardship, Calamity, and Suffering. That is what it is vital to US that OUR War Coverage Centers the Experiences of Ukraines and Gives Ukrainians A Platform to Tell Our Readers About What Is Hapr.
Many People Living in Russia Still Deny The Obvious. They Prefer to Believe Whaty See On Television Because the Truth is Too Horrible to Accept. But The People of Russia Need to Wake up. The People of Russia Need to be Horrified by What Is Being Done on Their Behalf. Working Together, This is the only Way We Can Stop the War.
Our Hearts Are With Ukraine.
