A Message from Our Team
Dear readers,
We are writing to you today with a heavy heart, but also with a renewed sense of purpose. The Moscow Times, a publication dedicated to providing accurate and unbiased reporting on Russia, is facing unprecedented challenges. The Russian Prosecutor General’s Office has designated us as an “undesirable” organization,a move that effectively criminalizes our work and puts our dedicated staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier, unjust labeling as a “foreign agent.”
We understand that these actions are a direct attempt to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our reporting “discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership.” We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, see things vrey differently. We believe in the power of truth and the importance of providing our readers with factual, unvarnished reporting, even when it’s challenging.
