[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You do what the other pp have said. Tell her you are worried about her and her family. Tell you you will help her leave and will help her find a place to live.  But if she decides to stay the offer is always available and that you will pray for all of her family (including her husband and in-laws)[/quote]

If it was my sister then I'd do this plus offer her a place for her, her husband and her kids to live.  I wouldn't be excited about hosting the in laws too, but if my sister asked, I'd say yes.  But we have a large house with an in law suite. [/quote]

I assume it will be impossible for Russians without another passport to get a visa to come to the US. I don't think the issue is OP's reluctance to host the inlaws but more likely that the inlaws can't land in any Western country at the moment?[/quote]

Personally, I don't care about the in-laws or the husband, but I'm not the OP. I'd do or say whatever I needed to get my sister and niece out and figure out the rest.[/quote]
You don’t think the sister might not want to leave her husband? Would you, in a similar situation?  :roll: [/quote]

Yeah, that's been covered, and so what. This is about OP's sister. But I can unequivocally say I would prioritize my sibling and the sibling's children's safety over that of my sibling's spouse or in-laws in this situation. I love my sibling's spouse. And I still know that the spouse would prioritize their children over themself and would want me to do everything for their children even if they were left behind.[/quote]
