Three months have passed since the day of the military invasion of Ukraine by my home country.
A Russian woman living in Tokyo is suffering from a discontinuity, such as disagreements with her parents who still believe in the information that is being disseminated in Russia. I want to continue to send it on SNS.
Deomina Christina (27), who came to Japan from Russia six years ago, is a web media for tourists visiting Japan that conveys the charm of Japan.
Her parents in her hometown supported her work in Japan, but she says the relationship changed after Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
Mr. Christina posted on SNS how she participated in the anti-war demonstration after learning about the military invasion.
On the other hand, her father said, "Russia is fighting neo-Nazis for world peace. Overseas news is that Ukraine is only making and streaming videos, and you who do not understand it are enemies of the country I received the message.
Cristina said, "No matter what I explain, it's all a lie." It's as if I'm no longer my parent. When I return home, I'm even worried that my parents will call me to the police, so I can't go back to my home country. "
Christina is distressed by the worsening relationship with her family, but she continues to protest her three months after the military invasion.
She said, "Russian friends are scared to speak out on social media even if they are against the war. I can speak freely in Japan, but instead I will not tell everyone in the world that there are Russians who are against the war. "Don't do it," she says.
He added, "Three months have passed and the scariest thing is getting used to this situation. Russian soldiers have killed Ukrainian citizens and many Russian soldiers of my age have died. This war is unusual. I don't want to forget, I don't want to forget. "
