Interview with Darya Chultsova

Darya Chultsova, a journalist of the Belarusian free media outlet Belsat, became a symbol of resilience and dignity alongside her colleague Katsiaryna Andreyeva. They were both detained in November 2020 while doing their journalistic work and received harsh sentences, imposed by Lukashenka’s regime. Darya gave a deep and emotional interview for FemMoz after serving her unlawful sentence and fleeing from Belarus. She shares the experience of inhumane treatment and forced labor in Belarusian prisons, torture, lack of medical help – and how these terrors become a deep trauma for people.

The interview was made as part of the project Femmoz – Empowerment for women in and from Belarus.
