Some Russians have fled their country amid a widespread crackdown on dissent. Russia has arrested thousands of antiwar protesters, muzzled independent media and cut access to social media sites like Facebook and Twitter. FRANCE 24's International Affairs Commentator Douglas Herbert tells us more.  

#Russia #Putin #Ukraine

 

Некоторые россияне бежали из своей страны на фоне широкомасштабного подавления инакомыслия. Россия арестовала тысячи антивоенных демонстрантов, заткнула рот независимым СМИ и закрыла доступ к таким социальным сетям, как Facebook и Twitter. Обозреватель FRANCE 24 по международным делам Дуглас Герберт рассказывает нам больше.

 "Russia under Vladimir Putin has been controlled by a very small group of people, enablers who keep him in power while benefiting from his patronage system at the expense of the Russian people," OCCRP Publisher Drew Sullivan said in a press release.

«Россию при Владимире Путине контролировала очень небольшая группа людей, пособников, которые держат его у власти, извлекая выгоду из его системы покровительства за счет российского народа», — заявил в пресс-релизе издатель OCCRP Дрю Салливан.
