Savchenko about Alexievich: Neither Soviet nor Ukrainian, she’s daughter of great Belarusian nation!


The Ukrainian pilot, who is kept in a predetention center in Russia, thanked the Belarusian writer for supporting her and the Ukrainian people.

Nadiya Savchenko expressed her thanks in a letter after reading an interview with Svetlana Alexievich. According to the Nobel laureate, Savchenko was not arrested but kidnapped. The writer demanded her immediate release.

In response, Savchenko said that Alexievich is a very courageous woman who deserved to reflect glory on her own country.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”25001″][vc_column_text]

“Thank you for a fragment of the interview with the great Belarusian writer Svetlana Alexievich. In Russia, she was called a Soviet writer, Poroshenko said she is Ukrainian, but she is a daughter of the great and decent Belarusian nation! She has earned the right to make her country and nation famous in the whole world! And one should not hog a blanket of glory and ‘rebaptize’ her. I am very happy for her, I respect her work and creativity. I am not acquainted with her and, unfortunately, have not read her books. But I have already asked to bring them to jail. When I heard the title ‘War’s Unwomanly Face’, I smiled sarcastically, because I am a women who saw the face of war … But then I realized that we were not at the odds with the author. Her book is not a chauvinistic discourse stating that a woman’s place is in the kitchen, but rather on the contrary – it is an ode to Woman. I will read this book. If you can, report my words to Svetlana Alexievich and convey my gratitude for her attitude to me and Ukraine.”

In her letter, Nadiya Savchenko made a number of unflattering remarks on Vladimir Putin’s action and behavior. She also promised not to ask him for mercy.

Russia accuses Nadiya Savchenko of murdering two TV journalists, who were killed during the fighting in Donbas, and illegal border crossing. The pilot denies any wrongdoing and says that she was kidnapped on the territory of Ukraine and taken to Russia by force.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]ДР, belsat.eu
