Fearing mobilization and persecution, thousands of Russians have fled to the neighboring country of Georgia. They spoke with 60 Minutes about the challenges they've faced making a new life there.
This week, 60 Minutes correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi reported from Tbilisi, Georgia, the capital of the small country that shares a 556-mile border with its much larger neighbor, Russia, which is waging a brutal and seemingly endless war of aggression against Ukraine.As the invasion of Ukraine began, Russians fled the country in droves. And now, 100,000 Russians are living in Georgia.
60 Minutes also spoke with a married couple, Viktor Lyagushkin and Bogdana Vashchenko, who have a unique story. Lyagushkin is Russian. Vashchenko is Ukrainian. Before the war, they lived in Moscow and worked documenting underwater caves for National Geographic. When Russia invaded Ukraine last year, Vashchenko, who holds a Ukrainian passport, says she became terrified about what could happen to her in Russia and feared for her friends and family still living in Ukraine.
