- Title
Who Deserves a Nobel Peace Prize in Ukraine?
- Authors
Benjamin, Medea; Gold, Ariel
- Abstract
In what was described as a harsh rebuke of Russia, the 2022 Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to the Ukrainian human rights organization Center for Civil Liberties, along with Belarusian human rights advocate Ales Bialiatski and the Russian human rights organization Memorial. The Russian organization Kovcheg, or The Ark, helps Russians fleeing because of anti-war positions, condemnation of Russia's military aggression against Ukraine, and/or persecution they are experiencing in Russia. While we hear a lot about Russian war resisters, as Sheliazhenko points out even inside Ukraine, which is portrayed in Western media as a country entirely united in its war with Russia, there are men who don't want to fight.
