A Statement from RussianLessons.net:

RussianLessons.net решительно осуждает вторжение России в Украину. Мы с огромным прискорбием наблюдаем за тем, как незаслуженно страдают наши украинские друзья. Много лет назад мы создали этот вэбсайт для того, чтобы укрепить дружбу и понимание между людьми во всем мире. Мы знаем достаточно русских людей, чтобы с уверенноостью утверждать, что Путин не представляет ценностей и убеждений обычных российских граждан. Мы призываем всех продолжать взаимодействие в духе доброты и взаимопонимания. Нашим дорогим друзьям в России – несмотря на развернутую в России пропаганду и ложный наратив о вторжении в Украину на правах защитников, мы призываем вас распространять правду о происходящих событиях и противостоять продолжению войны в Украине. Рассказывайте своим друзьям и знакомым об альтернативных госканалам источниках информации. Мы с надеждой смотрим в будущее, где Россия, Украина, Европа и весь мир взаимодействуют на основах свободы, дружбы и уважения.

RussianLessons.net strongly condemns the Russian invasion of Ukraine. It is with the greatest sadness that we watch our friends in Ukrainian being attacked for no good reason. Many years ago, we built this website to encourage friendship and understanding between people all over the world. We also wish to remind everyone that Putin does not represent the views of ordinary Russians. As such, we encourage everyone to continue acting with kindness towards each another. To our dear friends in Russia. We urge you to spread the truth and stand against violence. The Russian media has falsely implied that this invasion is a defensive action. It is not. All of Ukraine has been attacked. Please encourage your friends and family to seek alternate sources of information. We look forward to a future where Russia, Ukraine, Europe and the World can stand together again in friendship, respect and freedom.
