    I was a scientist and a higher teacher at a Moscow university. Successful and somewhat illustrious career for the Russian teacher, I loved my job and made money with it, simply speaking. And then 2022 came. I told my students to stay away from the Russian propaganda. The higher-ups tried to hush me. So, I had terminated any contracts with Russian state institutions and resigned. Passed the interviews with some international companies as a Software/ML Engineer. Picked my favorite one, got relocated with all my stuff (from two apartments) free of charge. And now I’m in Europe. Working, living, donating for the good. Including you :) Thanks for your inspiring story, Roman. It'd be nice to meet you and have some good talk one day. Good luck!

      So if all adequate people leave Russia, what do you think will happen there, it will change by itself ? Donating for the good, I hope you mean donating to Ukraine's defense, otherwise Russia will come to you in Europe, very soon. You're donating to a person making business of westerns' deny to Putin's Russia - why not, it's your choice. But if this person was willing to change something instead of just making big money from it, he would do also a channel in Russian to explain all that stuff to the russians up-there, because we here in the EU know it very well. But views from Russia are not monetized, so bad.

    Roman, thank you SO much for this video. I really appreciated watching it. I'm married to a Russian citizen and I'm having to help her battle through the long process of immigration in the UK. I'm very lucky to hold both British and Irish citizenship. Both of our children are very fortunate to inherit both of my citizenships, as well as my wife's Russian nationality. I have saved this video locally to my computer, which I will store on an external drive, along with a few other similarly related videos to show my children in the future what other people have to go through in order to have their freedom. They are both extremely lucky, and I want them to fully understand the privileged situation they're in. I also hope that when I become a grandfather in the future, that they pass all 3 of the nationalities that both me and their mother have given them, to their children. Should they be lucky enough to be in a relationship with someone who holds a fourth nationality that allows dual citizenship, I hope that they pass that down to them as well. The way I look at it, is a "Make love, not war" protest, taken rather literally.
    Roman, you are a hero and fully support everything you're doing. Take the money from my super thanks and enjoy a nice beer or something. You deserve it.

      yes because cultural integration isn't a thing and everyone moving to completely different place with language and culture unrelated to yours isn't going to cause any problems at all. And it's also easy for someone already on the safe side to think people from a traumatized region can just adapt to a new set of laws and morals even though they have had said traumatizing principles cemented into their minds. But sure if we show them enough rainbows and ponies and don't worry about the logistics everything will be fine! :)

Jer jedan fpv dron je cca 700 eura, a ovaj je sebi od tvojih i tudjih donacija kupio par kofera sa cijenom od 500 eura po komadu. Pa dali stvarno nitko od vas nije to vidio?????.

    5 years agoI left my country of South Africa for a plethora of reasons . But mainly no electricity, insane violent crime. Being stressed even going to the supermarket to buy bread. Riots , corrupt government etc. Georgia took me in with her beautiful open arms. I travelled around asia. Then got stuck in Malaysia for 8 months (in the worst strict lockdown ever ) completely alone with no way home. Finally made it out to Istanbul then Georgia (had to pay a lot of money to get in due to CO-VID) . In 2021 I got a job offer to move to Estonia (EU) had to leave the Schengen zone after 2 years go back to Georgia (though that Istanbul airport) and eventually met my now wife. Yes even from thousands of miles away. You can make your dreams come true. Believe me I know the stress of applying for visas . Also being on the sort of undesirable list. Well done bro. Good luck on your life.

Good luck and God bless you and everything you stand for, you bring joy to thousands of people by uploading these videos and you show many people things and perspectives many of us wouldn't otherwise ever be exposed to! Have a wonderful time in your new life and remember always you have a positive impact on the world.
