Nobel Peace Prize laureate Oleksandra Matviichuk: “What is happening now is a simulation of a peace process. Trump promised to end the war in 24 hours. Now he has decided to finance it. These are already the longest 24 hours in human history. Witkoff called putin a humanist. I have interviewed hundreds of people released from russian captivity. They were tortured, raped, mutilated and subjected to electric shocks. One woman told me her eye had been gouged out with a spoon. In Kyiv, I met a five-year-old girl whose mother had been abducted, tortured and repeatedly raped by russians. The girl hugged me, cried and begged: ‘Please, bring my mother back.’ My friend and colleague, journalist Viktoriia Roshchyna, was abducted, tortured and died in russian captivity. Her body was returned with several organs missing. We still do not know how she died. My friend and mentor, Professor Ihor Kozlovskyi, spent 700 days in captivity. He was tortured so brutally that he had to learn to walk again after his release. In his isolation cell, he gave philosophy lectures to rats just to hear a human voice. He told me: ‘The foundation of our existence is dignity. And dignity is action.’ 𝗗𝗜𝗚𝗡𝗜𝗧𝗬 𝗜𝗦 𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡! We have acted throughout these so-called ‘24 hours’. We acted before them, and we will keep acting for as long as it takes to bring peace. Thank you to everyone who continues to stand with us.”
