Parenting Quote by Oliver Bullough
““That was the choice that Father Dmitri was given. As a Russian, he wanted to support Russia. As a Christian, he wanted to oppose the Soviet Union. But, if he opposed the Soviet Union, he was allying with foreigners and thus fighting against Russia. He had to choose, therefore, between his religion and his country and he chose his country. That was how he himself justified his choice.””
![“[Father Dmitry] “lived through collectivization, the crushing of the 80 percent of Russians that were peasants. He served as a soldier in World War Two, when millions of peasants died defending the government that had crushed them. He spent eight years in the gulag, the network of labour camps…” quote by Oliver Bullough](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/20d/oliver-bullough-45178_parenting_father-dmitry-lived-through-collectiviza_2046669.jpg)
