Lyubava Greshnova, who worked and was friends with actors from the Russian Federation, named only one family of "good Russians"

Ukrainian actress Lyubava Greshnova, who lived in two countries for many years and cut all ties with Russia after the Russian army began a full-scale invasion of Ukraine, told how her Russian friends reacted to the war. The artist says that only one family in her circle left Russia in protest.

Lyubava Greshnova spoke about this in an interview with OBOZ.UA. The actress, her husband, actor Mikhail Pshenychny, and son left Russia in the first days of the great war.

"I expected support from people whom I considered friends," says Greshnova, "I thought that at least they would write and call me. After all, we had been friends for so many years, worked together. But the best and closest ones never even asked how I was doing. And half of them even posted "Z" on the social network. In the first two months, I couldn't pull myself together at all because of this. I can understand that this is a total fear for them, but it doesn't make the disappointment any less."

When asked if she believes in the existence of good Russians, the actress replied: "I can tell you from my experience: out of my entire social circle in Russia - and I had a lot of friends there, people I considered close - I don't keep in touch with anyone now. But there is one family, a husband and wife, who left Russia to protest the war with Ukraine when the invasion began. They have no relatives in Ukraine - it's just their civic position. They left their whole life and future behind and left. Can I call them good Russians? Yes, I can. Just like Liya Ahedzhakova or Alla Pugacheva. But, unfortunately, I, like all Ukrainians, am disappointed in the vast majority of Russians."

"We have almost no one in Moscow now," Greshnova continues, "Only my son's nanny remains, she has Ukrainian roots. She has many relatives in Chernihiv. She also really wanted to leave, but she takes care of her sick mother, who is bedridden. We are in touch - she is sad, crying, talking to us. When we left, our dog stayed with her, but we couldn't take him - he needed vaccinations. It was brought to us by Russian friends she told us about."
