Victor Pivovarov got a fine of 40,000 rubles, around €450, as a Russian court considered that one of the priest’s sermons “discredited” the Russian army. But the 86-year old continues to speak out against Putin’s actions. “The thing is, I’ve hated Bolshevism since I was a child” he says. “I saw how the Chekists, the Bolsheviks, abused my mother […] They tortured her. And I made a vow, you could say, to take revenge on Bolshevism for that.”

“If foreign tanks are there under our windows, it means we are at war with an enemy, an interventionist. But if our tanks are in a neighbouring country, and our soldiers are savagely torturing the people, waging an invasive war, then they are damned. Such a war is cursed both by God and man."
