Monica Zgustova denounces the assasinations of journalists in Russia

The Russian journalist Ivan Safronov died at the beginning of March by falling from the fourth floor of a building in Moscow. He was investigating the selling of Russian weapons to Syria and Iran. His newspaper, the Russian daily 'Kommersant', doubts that he committed suicide. "Who in Russia doesn't want the truth to be known?”, asks the Czech writer and translator Monika Zgustova. "Many people, if we count the 256 journalists assassinated since the fall of the Soviet Union. … Despite the fact that contemporary Russia offers citizens more freedoms than the Soviet Union did, the methods intended to get rid of those who get in the way are less predictable and harder to elucidate. Whereas the Soviet authorities sent dissidents into exile, to gulags, or locked them up in asylums, today's Russia gets rid of trouble-makers by beating them up, with a bullet, poison or a bomb. Or else they are thrown out of a window, as they did Ivan Safronov”.
