Marina recorded this video before interrupting Channel One's live broadcast. I translated it for you (thread):
“What is currently happening in Ukraine is a crime. Russia is a country-aggressor.” /1
"All responsibility for this aggression lies on the conscience of one person: Vladimir Putin. My father is Ukrainian, my mother is Russian. They were never enemies." /2
"This necklace around my neck signifies that Russia should immediately stop this fratricidal war and our brotherly nations can make peace with each other." /3
"Unfortunately, for the last several years I worked at Channel One, promoting Kremlin propaganda and for that I am very ashamed right now." /4
"I am ashamed that I allowed lies to be told from TV screens, that I allowed Russian people to be zombified. We stayed quiet when all of this was just getting started in 2014." /5
"We didn't come out to protest when the Kremlin poisoned Navalny. We continued to quietly watch this inhumane regime." /6
"Now the whole world turned away from us. Ten generations of our descendants won't be able to wash away the shame of this fratricidal war." /7
"We, the Russian people, are thoughtful and smart, only we have the power to stop all this madness. Come out to protests, fear nothing, they can't jail us all." /8
