This is how the professional skater Sara Hurtado experiences the Russian invasion in Ukraine: “We saw Russia as isolated”

“Physically you didn’t feel that threat, but we saw an isolation. When you see that isolation is very likely, you say ‘I need to get out of here‘”, he adds. Clara, who also lives in Moscow, does not think so. She believes that her physical integrity is not in danger, although she speaks of the difficulties she would have in the event of an escalation of the conflict.

The ruble has depreciated so much that the damage to the country’s economy may be uncontrollable, as the Spaniard Berto Lladó, who also lives in Moscow, comments in the video: “I arrived three and a half years ago, the ruble was at 70 and now it’s at 120. It’s unbelievable.” He decided to set up a small business in Russia and is staying for the time being, although he admits that now the difficulties are much greater.
