Myroslava Gongadze was only 28 when her husband, Georgiy Gongadze, was kidnapped and killed for his work as a reporter investigating corruption in Ukraine. “Seeing what is right and wrong was like breathing air for him,” said Myroslava of her husband at the Ronald Reagan Library on Tuesday. Gongadze, who became a human rights activist after her husband’s death, was one of several speakers at the library’s “Democracy in The World After Thirty Years” event, which was held to commemorate the thirtieth anniversary of President Ronald Reagan’sWestminster Address.
