According to her, two options are available to her if she wishes to return to her country without going through prison: "stop saying that it's a war, that it's a tragedy (...)" or "ask forgiveness for not having supported the military operation”.

“I am not able to ignore what I see with my own eyes, (…) I know that I am not a traitor (…) I deeply love my country”, she added.
