Refuge from Russia: Justice, Grief, and Parliament Pushback

In this episode of Refuge from Russia, Tami looks at two very different stories that reveal a common theme: what happens when institutions stop working for ordinary people.First, a headline about Baymurodova, murdered and not buried, raises painful questions about grief, dignity, and justice when a family cannot lay a loved one to rest.Then we turn to Ukraine, where parliament says it is not a Xerox machine and is pushing back against being treated like a rubber stamp.Together, these stories show how bureaucracy, power, and public frustration collide across the former Soviet space and beyond.
