The Ukrainian director Oleg Sentsov, who was imprisoned in Russia, phoned his cousin Natalia Kaplan for the first time from the colony. Natalia wrote about this on her Facebook page.
As Kaplan noted, the conversation was very difficult, as Oleg still refuses to meet his relatives and is waiting for an exchange, according to which there is no information.
"Oleg first called from Labytnangi.
He says that the transfer and money to the account is not needed yet.. As before, he refuses to visit. Said: "I'm waiting for another". Honestly he replied that while the stupor is full. Nods at the exchange of prisoners. I again tried to explain to him that the political prisoners are separated from the prisoners and this process does not concern him. It seems that he does not yet understand this. A very heavy call came out, although the connection lasted only three minutes, "- wrote Natalia.
