"I Love Russia: Reporting From a Lost Country" is Elena Kostyuchenko's new book.Russian journalist Elena Kostyuchenko is seen in an interview on ABC News Live Prime.last year, Russian dissident journalist Elena Kostyuchenko was reporting at the time for a Moscow-based opposition newspaper that was shut down shortly following the invasion.
Kostyuchenko spoke to ABC News' Linsey Davis about the premise of the book. She also opened up about falling ill last October after what she claims was a poisoning attempt by the Russian state.LINSEY DAVIS: Elena, thank you so much for coming on the show. So let's just start out with the idea of a lost country. Why do you refer to Russia as a lost country?
DAVIS: This book really examines Putin's war and how it's really changed Russia's position politically, worldwide and its descent into fascism. But despite that global view, many Russians still seem to support Putin. Why do you think that is?KOSTYUCHENKO: It's just hard to evaluate how many Russians really support war and really support Putin because right now, the expression of any negative attitude to war is criminalized, basically, in Russia.
KOSTYUCHENKO: Thank you so much. I feel much better. All my symptoms gone, except that I still get tired super easily. The opinion that I was poisoned was actually opinion of my doctors, and after that, I approached the police. And investigation still going on and I'm really looking forward to results of it.ABC NewsKOSTYUCHENKO: I mean, I am concerned, because if did use dichloroethane, it's not just toxic, but also it can cause cancer.
