Ukraine: writer Shishkin, ‘hard to be Russian in these tragic days’

“These days it is difficult for me to be Russian. Now for the whole world the Russian language is the language of those who bomb Ukrainian cities and kill children, the language of war criminals, the language of murderers. The declared purpose of this language. ‘military operation’ is saving the Russians, the Russian language, the Russian culture from the Ukrainian fascists, but this war is instead a crime against the Russians, the Russian culture and against my language “. To tell Adnkronos is Mikhail Shishkin, Russian intellectual and writer and candidate for the European Witch Prize 2022 with the novel ‘Point of Escape’, in an analysis on the ongoing war. “All the people living in Ukraine, regardless of the language they speak, be they Russian or Ukrainian, have united against the attacker. The line of fire does not pass between Russians and Ukrainians but between free people and slaves duped by Putin “, explains the writer. Who observes: “Putin will fight to the last throwing thousands of ever new lives into the fire, but he has no chance of winning. He wanted to show his people victory, to confirm that he was a ‘true’ tsar”, intellectual observes . The defeat in the war “always becomes the main Russian problem: ‘The Tsar, he is an impostor, then!’, ‘The real Tsars do not lose wars!’. So it happened with Stalin who defeated Germany, and so it happened with Gorbachev who lost the war in Afghanistan and the cold war with the West. Stalin is still loved by the people, in Gorbachov they could not forgive the defeat “. On what will happen from now on between Russia and Ukraine, and around the world, Shishkin makes some observations to Adnkronos:” I would like to believe that when the desperate dictator will press the red button, some of his executors at the last second will not obey the order and will save the world from nuclear hell – says the writer – I have no doubt that Ukraine, even if destroyed, will win in this war and all the world will help them rebuild the bombed cities. I am sure that the Ukrainian people will be able to build a free and democratic country in which the economy and culture will develop. And Russia will emerge from this defeated war “.
