'I want a ceasefire to happen before thousands and thousands of people are killed,' Russian opposition politician Grigory Yavlinsky told Newsweek.
Yavlinsky, 70, the founder of the Yabloko party, has vocalized his opposition to Putin's decision tosince the conflict began last February. He has described the war, for his nation, as"akin to a self-imposed nuclear strike."
Then-Russian presidential candidate Grigory Yavlinsky speaks during a meeting with his electorate in Moscow on February 22, 2018. Yavlinsky is calling for a ceasefire in Vladimir Putin’s war in Ukraine, which he has described as a “dead end.
His opposition to the war has come at a cost, however. There have been numerous attempts by those who support the conflict to liquidate Yabloko, a social-liberal party that has deputies in four regional parliaments: Moscow, St. Petersburg, the Pskov region and Karelia. "It first happened in April, last year, and then it happens all the time. It's very difficult even to calculate how many times," Yavlinsky told."There are a lot of people...who are just supporting the current regime...and attacking the people who are not supporting the war, like Yabloko—organized political structures, which are against the war. They are trying to destroy this structure, they don't want this structure to exist.
