Meet the Kremlin’s keyboard warrior in Crimea
01 Oct 2023  |  www.codastory.com
Konstantin Knyrik, a pro-Kremlin nationalist and editor-in-chief of News Front, has been a key figure in spreading disinformation since Russia's annexation of Crimea in 2014. News Front, allegedly funded by the FSB, produces content in multiple languages and has a significant impact, particularly in Germany. The agency is known for its false and inflammatory stories, often aligning with Kremlin narratives. Knyrik's background includes leadership roles in pro-Russian organizations and political affiliations with Russia's far-right Rodina party. Despite allegations of disinformation, Knyrik defends his work as a counter to Western media.
'Women of the Gulag' Shortlisted for Oscar Nomination
21 Jan 2019  |  The Moscow Times
The documentary 'Women of the Gulag' by Russian-American director Marianna Yarovskaya has been shortlisted for an Oscar nomination, marking a historic moment for a Russian woman director. The film, which focuses on the stories of six women who survived the Soviet Gulag, has received limited attention in Russia, facing criticism from Gulag deniers and some Russian officials. Despite this, it has been praised by Russia's small liberal press for its poignant portrayal of Stalinist atrocities. Yarovskaya hopes for broader viewership, including a potential screening on Russia's first channel, though she acknowledges potential disapproval from President Putin. The 91st Oscars will be held on February 24, 2019.

13 Aug 2017  |  The Moscow Times
In St. Petersburg, around one hundred LGBT activists gathered for the city's eighth Gay Pride, marking the largest turnout since 2010. Despite the presence of riot police and the challenges posed by Russia's 'gay propaganda' law, the event highlighted the community's resilience and the partial victories achieved, such as the European Court of Human Rights ruling against Russia's discriminatory practices. The parade faced obstacles, including the rejection of permits and pseudo-events to block the pride. Notable figures like Yury Gavrikov and political leaders from Yabloko and Alexei Navalny have shown support for LGBT rights. The event ended with an attack on activists and journalists, underscoring the ongoing challenges faced by the LGBT community in Russia.

Russia's Committed Youth: The Fight for the Oppressed LGBTQ Scene
08 Dec 2016  |  ZEIT ONLINE ze.tt
Civil society in Russia faces significant pressure, with NGO workers being defamed and threatened. The article profiles Artem, a gay man who experiences daily harassment and violence. The situation for LGBTQ individuals in Russia has worsened, with a law against 'homosexual propaganda' further marginalizing the community. Artem volunteers with the Russian LGBT Network, which provides psychological help, legal advice, and organizes events like a Queer Film Festival. Despite the risks, Artem continues to offer support to LGBTQ youth. Russian government attempts to control NGOs threaten the existence of critical and independent organizations, with laws allowing the banning of foreign NGOs, criticized by Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International.
