“There is more honor in a Russian prison” – Savchenko
For guards in a Russian prison, Verkhovna Rada deputy Nadezhda Savchenko was allegedly something incomprehensible. In terms of conditions of detention, prisons in Ukraine are no better than those in Russia.
The politician, who was recently released from a Ukrainian pretrial detention center, stated this on the NewsOne TV channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“There was more honor in the Russian prison. They looked at me, I was something incomprehensible to them, I was Ukraine for them, which they cannot understand. In terms of the difference in everyday life, in the difference in the premises themselves, in the methods of work - no, because all this is the Soviet system. We want to change the penitentiary system, I hope that in Ukraine it will improve, but so far there is no difference,” Savchenko said.
