“I lived under occupation for 10 years. After that long, Russian propaganda starts to disgust you… You don’t feel it influencing you, but it’s impossible to describe how exhausting it becomes when, at every turn, St George’s ribbons and ‘Z’ symbols are shoved in your face, and you’re told that Russia is the ideal and Russian soldiers are heroes,” 18-year-old Olha, who left Crimea, told
@KRYMSOS in an interview.
Children and young people from Crimea have the right to preserve their language and culture, study free from Russian propaganda and choose their own future. Leaving can open access to education and support in Ukrainian government-controlled territory. Their connection to Crimea remains.
