Reacting to her husband’s sentencing in the love note, she said she was proud of his courage.

Kara-Muza was sentenced to 25 years in a high-security prison on treason and other charges for criticising the Ukraine offensive.

“A quarter of a century is an ‘A+’ for your courage, consistency and honesty in your year-long work. I am infinitely proud of you, my love, and I’m always by your side,” Evgenia, wrote on Twitter.
