“We continue to call war war. We are waiting for the consequences,” Dmitry Muratov, a Nobel laureate and editor-in-chief of independent Russian newspaper Novaya Gazeta, told the New Yorker in an interview – highlighting how independent voices are standing up against Kremlin’s orders to cover the war in Ukraine.
It has been widely reported that Russian communications regulators have issued orders which seek to control how Russian media covers the war, banning the use of the words ‘war’, ‘occupation’ and ‘invasion’.
