Yabloko will hold actions of writing letters to political prisoners at its regional offices across Russia
Press Release, 22.11.2022
This week, actions in support of political prisoners will be held in the offices of the Yabloko party across Russia. Yabloko invites all, who would like to support politicians and civil activists who were unjustly convicted or under investigation, to take part in the actions. Participants of the actions can sign postcards printed by the Yabloko party or bring their own letters. Regional offices of Yabloko undertake to send all correspondence to the addressees.
Support with kind words and a wishes is very important for those unjustly deprived of their freedom. Many political prisoners enter into correspondence with Yabloko activists and say in their response letters that the news from the other side of the prison is like a breath of fresh air for them.
We have developed instructions on how and what to write to political prisoners (https://www.yabloko.ru/pisma-politzekam ).
On 25 November, the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, actions will take place in 16 cities: Novgorod, Vladivostok, Vsevolzhsk (the Leningrad region), Yekaterinburg, Ivanovo, Yoshkar-Ola, Kazan, Novosibirsk, Orenburg, Ryazan, Smolensk, Tambov, Tomsk, Cheboksary, Chelyabinsk, and Moscow.
On 27 November actions will be held in two more cities: Krasnoyarsk and Saratov.
