Novaya Gazeta editor: Russia is becoming a dictatorship, we close November 9

Sergei Sokolov, editor-in-chief of independent Novaya Gazeta, told Rzeczpospolita that Russia is shaping itself into a dictatorship — not merely a personalist regime. The newspaper, operating for over 30 years, ends operations on November 9 under pressure from Putin's regime. Sokolov noted that another Russia exists and does not always remain passive.
