I was thinking exactly the same thing. It is simple to paint an entire nation/society/culture with a single brush, particularly in times of conflict - but it is examples like this that show that to be an emotional (and perhaps intellectually convenient) position. I believe I owe it to the memory of people such as this to educate myself about their lives and actions - they are inspiring and truly represent the highest human qualities. Thank you for the post!I wish I had known about this man sooner.
When I read about heroes like him it reminds me that however pervasive evil can be, not all are corrupted. I try to keep that in mind when reading about Russia-Ukraine war and the atrocities committed there.
