- It is difficult to imagine what the people of Ukraine have to go through right now, but even Russians who speak out against the war feel great fear and worry about their future.

According to Daria, Russian mass media have been claiming for years that the people of Donetsk and Luhansk are suffering from Kiev's military aggression.

- When you hear the same statements every day for several years without any alternative news sources, it will not be long before you start believing these statements.

Only official sources

Yesterday, an order came from the authority that controls information in Russia that all media may only use official sources such as the Ministry of Defense and Russian authorities, otherwise the media companies risk large fines.

- I can not imagine how it will work.

So far, the media have provided information from their own sources, ie information that has not been approved by the state.

We do not know how to work with these restrictions.

Demonstrations

Although Ukraine is far away, the war affects most people in Russia.

Many have gone out and demonstrated against the invasion, including Daria.

- I have made a poster where it says that I am against the war and that I have not chosen these people in power.
