"I am exactly the type of person Putin had in mind when he launched his speech last night. He wants to frame people like me as traitors, the fifth column,”"

"I live a good life, post pretty pictures online about food. They now want to portray me as the face of the ‘decadent west’.”"

"To find out I was the first one to be charged was both amusing and shocking. I joked that I was officially declared a decent person"

"“The Russian people will always be able to distinguish true patriots from scum and traitors and simply spit them out like a fly that accidentally flew into their mouth"
