Russians, I want to ask you: What kind of war is this? You kill us, disfigure us, and then you treat our wounds in your hospitals. You bomb and loot our homes, then you rebuild them. You try to tell us that Russia is our home, but every day, I have to bribe the police not to beat me to death for the way I look. Pay them not to rob me. I have to convince them that I haven’t come here to kill them and that I don’t want to blow up their houses. They could have killed me in Grozny…But they might also kill me here…”
