Why So Little Support for Russians and Belarusians Who Choose Not to Participate in War in Ukraine?

By Our House, October 15, 2026

At the “Conscientious Objection is a Human Right!” conference at the European Parliament, Olga Karach spoke about the situation of Belarusian, Russian, and Ukrainian conscientious objectors.

Watch the full conference here.

Why are people who refuse to participate in war so often left without protection? Why can a passport or nationality become a reason for suspicion? And why should the right to say “I do not want to kill anyone” be protected equally for everyone?

Olga presented the experience of Our House and the “NO means NO” campaign.
