  • Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya’s comment on the suicide of activist Sviatlana Krutsikava

    December 11, 2024

    “On December 10, Sviatlana Krutsikava took her own life. She had been persecuted for distributing ‘extremist’ materials, subjected to searches, and endured psychological abuse. It is impossible to comprehend the torment that drove someone to such a tragic and irreversible step – a step born of despair.

    The regime destroys lives not only in prisons. It ruins people’s health – both physical and mental – through harassment, threats of persecution, and relentless manipulation. At some point, even the strongest hearts can break.

    News like this brings immense pain and horror. Repression and war can shake even the brightest souls to their core and drive them to despair. We all face endless challenges in life. Please, check in on your loved ones. Ask how they are, stand by them during difficult times, and stay connected. If you feel overwhelmed and alone, seek support from those close to you and share your pain.

    In this difficult moment, I want to extend my deepest condolences to Sviatlana’s family. The loss of a loved one is an unfathomable grief that defies comparison”.
