(This is part of a series of open letters about the war that we are receiving from Ukrainian talent - read all of them here).
Her statement:
"During a war with no rules, applying the rules of the civilized world to the aggressor is the same as asking an anemic patient to become a donor. I protest against the madness of the Russian Federation, against murderous imperialism, against military aggression as a world disease. I urge you to do everything in your power to stop the bloodshed. The public position against Russian Federation in all areas is a loud cure for despotism."
