DONATE TO STOP RUZZIA!

I’m Andrejs Mamikins

and I’m sorry…

I owe an apology to everyone I hurt with my words and actions. I deeply regret having supported Russia and beeing against Latvia in the past, and I understand how my stance caused pain – especially to the people of Ukraine, Israel, and Latvians. I am truly sorry.

Since then, I’ve taken time to learn, listen, and grow. I now stand in solidarity with Ukraine, Israel, and with Latvia – whose values of freedom and democracy I respect and cherish. I promise to use my platform to uplift voices for peace and justice, and to never repeat the mistakes of the past.

Thank you for giving me the chance to make things right. I hope to earn back your trust by acting with honesty, compassion, and respect for all.

As a former Member of the European Parliament who once downplayed documented atrocities – such as the summary executions in Bucha. I recognize the gravity of my error. Acknowledging the Atrocities Bucha…

    Day 1. Arrival With Luggage and Purpose I arrived in Moscow with two suitcases and a destiny. The first suitcase contained clothes. The second suitcase contained clothes for the first suitcase.
