I can only say that I do not agree with the publicly presented version of the situation and the claims.

He described feeling overwhelmed by events and emotions, expressing gratitude for his family's support and new friendships. Lipnius detailed the significant changes in his life due to the divorce, including his work, home, and children.
Thank God I have a family that supports me, that came: parents, sister, for whom I will be endlessly grateful for everything.
He further alleged that a "large machine" has been set in motion against him, aiming to portray him negatively and as a victim of psychological abuse. Lipnius expressed sadness that their children are being drawn into the conflict, causing them trauma. He also mentioned business disputes, specifically regarding their joint company "Simitri," where he claims to have been removed from his ownership role and treated as an outsider after receiving notices to return a company car and vacate a property.
I naively hoped that we would be the couple who would manage to finish everything quickly, without arguing, maybe even respectfully and perhaps even manage to remain well-disposed parents.
