Russian authorities have added Latvia-based independent Russian news outlet Novaya Gazeta Europe to the country's list of “undesirable” organizations. The designation means the outlet must cease all operations inside Russia and makes it a crime to engage with the publication in any way, including sharing its content online. The Prosecutor General's Office said the decision was based on an audit that, among other things, determined that the news outlet “is carrying out activities aimed at creating and distributing materials that damage interests of the Russian Federation.” “The main topics of its publications include false information about alleged massive violations of the rights and freedoms of citizens in Russia, accusations of our country unleashing a war of aggression in Ukraine, committing war crimes against civilians and repressions,” the Prosecutor General's office said in a statement late Wednesday. “All in all, the activities of the organization constitute a threat to the constitutional order of the Russian Federation and the security of the state,” said the government agency.

Novaya Gazeta Europe was founded by exiled journalists from Russia’s flagship independent newspaper Novaya Gazeta in April 2022, after the original outlet suspended its activities in Russia due to “government repressions and censorship laws.” Novaya Gazeta's editor-in-chief, 2021 Nobel Peace Prize laureate Dmitry Muratov, remains a vocal critic of the war. Novaya Gazeta Europe vowed to continue its work despite the "undesirable" label. "What the Russian authorities are doing in Ukraine is much more terrible than any 'status' they can offer those who tell the truth," the publication said in a statement.

The Putin dictatorship muzzles all Russian media that deviate from the regime narrative.

Luckily, the Novaya Gazeta journalists are in Latvia and beyond the reach of Vladimir Putin.

Trump must be so envious.

Trump wishes he had Putin's dictatorial powers.

What's sad is MAGA world will still vote for such an outcome.

Why don't they just all move to Russia?

Try again.

Zelenskyy closed the 3 television stations (ZIK, NewsOne, and 112) of Russian sympathizer Viktor Medvedchuk and suspended 11 pro-Russia political parties.

Analysis: Ukraine bans Kremlin-linked TV channels

President Zelenskyy shut down three Kremlin-linked TV channels on February 2 in a move portrayed as a major blow to Russia’s hybrid war against Ukraine. The step has sparked debate over the balance between national security and free speech.

That is the least of Zelensky's atrocities. Zelensky has gone from the criminal to the sacrilegious: I saw a clip of a video of the Metropolitan of the Orthodox Church having ankle bracelets put on him by Zelensky's Gestapo. All over Banderaland monks and nuns are being evicted from their monasteries and convents. What possible crime can a monk, who has passed his life cloistered, be guilty of? The monk's crime is simply being Russian
