I also ask you to share the fury and hate for those who dared to kill our future. I speak to you in the words of Alexei, in which I believe truly. There is no shame in doing little. There is shame in doing nothing. In allowing them to scare you.
What we need is a free, peaceful, and happy Russia. The wonderful Russia of the future my husband so dreamed of. That’s what we need.
