Human rights organisation Memorial is the Nobel Peace Prize winner in 2022!
Congratulations from the Yabloko leaders
Press Release, 7.10.2022
Dear friends,
For the second year in a row, the Nobel Committee awards the Nobel Peace Prize to our compatriots – this is an unprecedented event in history. This is not only a recognition of the merits of the Memorial [human rights organization], but also an indication of the difficult situation in which civil society finds itself in our country.
This is a support award for all those who find the strength to show their inner freedom, resist the dictates and inhumanity of the authorities, who fight for historical memory and peace!
This is a prize for all political prisoners, for all those who work at Memorial, publish books, collect and store archives, whose time will come, because without an assessment of the past, one cannot get out of the vile present.
Congratulations to everyone who feels part of our common Memorial.
Nikolai Rybakov,
Yabloko Chairman
Grigory Yavlinsky,
Chairman of the Federal Political Committee of Yabloko
