“#Russian authorities should immediately drop all the charges against the #DOXA editors, return their equipment, and let them do their jobs covering important political events in the country without fear,” @gulnozas

“It’s apt, but sad, that student #journalism in today’s Russia must include a lesson in just how afraid Vladimir Putin’s government is of independent news coverage,” @gulnozas

"Russian authorities should cease fining and harassing news outlets for alleged violations of its foreign agents law… websites such as VTimes should not be forced to jump through hoops and risk large fines due to their ownership structures,” @gulnozas
