WK: چه چیزی عروسک‌های ماتریوشکا، راهبه‌های بلاروسی، کلیساهای فرانسوی و سربازان روسی را به هم مرتبط می‌کند؟

WK: What links matryoshka dolls, Belarusian nuns, French churches and Russian troops?

In recent years, visitors to French churches and cathedrals may have come across Belarusian nuns selling matryoshka dolls, religious icons and honey. They come from the Saint Elisabeth Convent in Minsk and present these sales as a means of funding their charitable work. However, the convent openly supports Russia’s war in Ukraine and has taken part in collections of supplies for Russian soldiers.
