Respected Leader
Al-Jazeeran artikkeli venäläisistä, jotka taistelevat ukrainalaisten rinnalla Venäjää vastaan:
Ukraine's other Russians.
Muutama lainaus:
"'It seems to be that those people who come to power in Russia, they come to power just to get money, to steal money," Shirobokov continues, as he works his thoughts back to politics. "But their job should be to help the people. Here [in Ukraine] at least I can show my opposition, I can demonstrate action. I act as an opposition here. I see this war to be an aggression by Russia, and I am strongly against this."
Shirobokov had previously tried to join anti-Putin organisations in his home city – he found none. "It's almost impossible to be a real activist and show opposition in Russia," he laments, "that's why I felt like I had to come to Ukraine.'" (Artyom Shirobokov).

"Thirty-year-old Spuk speaks in short bursts, but with clear conviction. "There is nothing strange about me being here," he remarks, swinging his gun from in front of him and letting it settle against his back. "It was like a calling of my heart," he continues, letting his guard down a little and starting to speak with more confidence. "For me I feel the justice is on this side. Putin has made the people of Russia his servants, and now he is looking to make servants out of Ukrainians.'" (Spuk).

"'The Russian government put me on a list saying I'm an extremist," Anton exclaims. "And that was before I even came to Ukraine, after that I had no choice but to come here.'" (Anton).
Pienistä puroista kasvaa lopulta leveä virta...
Vaikka tehtävä tuntuu Venäjän mediailmastossa mahdottomalta, mielestäni länsimaisen median pitäisi pyrkiä vaikuttamaan venäläisiin siten, että kertoisivat entistä enemmän niistä venäläisistä jotka ovat valmiit nousemaan Putinin hallintoa vastaan - se voi olla hukkaan heitettyä aikaa ja ne työtunnit voivat olla turhia, mutta ehkäpä kaikesta huolimatta yksittäisten ihmisten kertomukset omalta osaltaan avaisivat venäläisten silmiä. Sillä voi olla toinen vaikutus, jos Anton Sahalinilta sanoo: "But I don't feel like I am fighting for Ukraine here," he says quickly, then repeating the words again, attempting to accentuate their importance. "I feel I am fighting for Russia, for the people of Russia, against a regime that is damaging our country. My wish is for Russia to be a free democratic republic, like a free European country."
