In Warsaw, protesters surrounded Russia’s ambassador to Poland Monday and doused him in red paint as he prepared to lay flowers at a monument to Soviet soldiers who died defeating Nazi Germany in World War II.

Olga: “I think that they did not have to come today and put flowers at the monument, because they are aggressors in Ukraine. They can’t do this. Ukrainians are with me today. A man from Belarus is with us. We all want there to be no more war.”

The Russian Embassy filed a formal protest and blasted the Polish demonstrators as “admirers of neo-Nazism.”
