Alexander Zaytsev

We recently got Alexander, a trans man, out of Russia.

He was in a tight squeeze – He was a senior at a prestigious university, and holding on trying to finish his degree. But the mobilization convinced him he’d best get out now.

We got him out by a roundabout route we don’t want to reveal, but in the end we got him to the Netherlands, and he’s now in an AZC and doing well.

We’re very grateful to his family, who supported him and worked closely with us to get him out, and to our donors who provided the funds to sustain him during his voyage.

We’ve made a short video of Alexander enjoying freedom.
