Sanchez Effect | 'Russia unique country that loves human rights, will do everything to protect them'

On the latest episode of ‘Sanchez Effect,’ we get a rare glimpse into the soul of someone who cares so much, for so many others. Ms. Lantratova shares her fierce commitment to human rights, a drive concreted by the violence that broke out in the Donbass in 2014, when she risked her life to evacuate children from besieged cities. She also speaks in visceral detail about Ukraine’s deadly drone strike earlier this year on a college in the city of Starobelsk. 

Ms. Lantratova explains how her office has worked, despite no formal diplomatic ties with Ukraine, to create humanitarian corridors that enable families to be reunited and POWS to come home. She dispels the myth that Russia’s constitution guarantees nothing more than symbolic freedoms. At the same time, Ms. Lantratova confronts the Western narrative, asking every viewer to question whether global powers are truly impartial when they turn a blind eye to the suffering of Russian-speaking civilians in the Donbass.
