russian territory. just last week, more than 300 people from mariupol showed up in siberia. headlines like that bring up painful memories of an area an area in soviet history from more than 70 years ago when millions of people were forcibly relocated from their homes to remote parts of the soeviet union. i had a chance to speak with a survivor of the forced relocations, who said he sees plenty of parallels with his own story and what s happening in ukraine today. i was sure that nothing like this could ever happen again. what has happened in ukraine has brought these painful memories back very vividly. it s unbelievable that time hasn t changed anything at all. evil has become even worse, with my whole soul i feel for ukrainians who are taken violently against their will from their homes to the unknown.
