Alexander Isaevich Solzhenitsyn died

Yesterday, around midnight, Alexander Isaevich Solzhenitsyn died, a mouthpiece of the truth in the Soviet Union and a voice of honor in modern Russia. He was and will forever remain a man-era. A man who for many generations of Soviet people was the personification of real courage, willpower, and spirit. The writer who was able to talk about the realities of the Soviet regime - the attitude of the authorities towards their people.

A combat officer who was awarded with military awards, who received eight years of camps for his frank correspondence with a friend. He was expelled from the country for a series of willful publications - but even abroad he continued to write and think about his homeland. I will never forget the video report frames, when Alexander Isaevich, having flown from Alaska to Vladivostok, kissed the land - the land of his country and people.

It is very difficult and bitter to write that we have lost such a person. He will remain with us forever!
