Despite the fact that there was one hour left before the demonstration was planned to begin, about 30 people were already in place at 4 pm on Friday when SVT Nyheter Väst arrived at the Russian consulate in Gothenburg.
Critical of the outside world
Several of those who came carried large Ukrainian flags or had written signs condemning Putin and the war he waged against Ukraine.
- I want to tell everyone to help us.
Do not be indifferent, it's everyone's problem, says Natalia Persson who has her father left in Ukraine.
At the same time, she was critical of the outside world, which she believed was doing too little to stop the war.
- Politicians talk and talk but no one helps Ukraine, she says.
