Nobel Laureate Dmitry Muratov says the case against Even Gershkovich - a Wall Street Journal reporter facing espionage charges - is part of a wider trend to make journalism a 'dangerous profession' in Russia.
A Nobel prize-winning Russian journalist said on Friday, March 31, he did not believe that arrested American reporter Evan Gershkovich was a spy, and that he hoped diplomacy could bring about his quick release.
“He was no kind of so-called deep-cover operative – using being a journalist and his journalist’s accreditation as a cover for espionage … Gershkovich was not a spy,” said Muratov, a co-winner of the Nobel Peace Prize in 2021 for his efforts to defend press freedom in Russia. “At every turn, we’re being charged with espionage and treason. It’s a trend – to show that journalism is a dangerous profession … both for Russian and other journalists.”, which has seen several of its reporters killed in the last two decades, and had its registration revoked last year after Russia went to war in Ukraine. More than 260 publications have been closed, blocked or de-registered since then, he said.
