Orthodox parishioner
- I, Anastasia Nekrashevich, an Orthodox Christian, appeal to the Belarusian authorities and the whole world.
There is a great misfortune in my home country. It is impossible to hear more about cut veins, hunger strikes, torture, bullying, murder, persecution, violence, repression. My grandparents went through the Stalinist camps and it seemed that it was forever in the past. I can t look at how our country turns into a prison and human cruelty again takes on sophisticated forms and is presented as a norm of life. This has even become the norm for some monks, priests, and laity who call themselves Orthodox Christians.
