The Ministry of Justice recognized the "foreigner" "The movement of conscious refusers"
The Ministry of Justice of Russia updated the Unified Register of Foreign Agents. The head of the “Movement of Conscious Refusers” Alexander Belik and the movement itself, politician Vitaly Bovar, scientific journalist Ilya Kolmanovsky, former chairman of the Perm Memorial Robert Latypov, Associate Professor of Moscow State University and politician Mikhail Lobanov, Patron Leonid Nevzlin, Moskhorduma deputy Evgeny Nevzlin and the Knight Center “Action”.
The legislation on "foreign agents" in Russia appeared in 2012. The law allowed the Ministry of Justice to recognize non-profit organizations by “foreign agents” if they receive financing from abroad and are engaged in “political activities”. The criteria for which such activities are determined are not clearly defined in the law, which allows the authorities to persecute organizations working in the field of education, culture, healthcare, ecology, and human rights protection.
According to the "Virstki", 18% of all "foreign agents" in Russia instituted criminal cases. The most popular article for persecution is about the spread of fakes, that is, obviously false information, about the actions of the Russian army. The Russian authorities consider any statements that are different from the official statements of the Ministry of Defense.
From December 1, 2022, anyone who is under "foreign influence" can be announced by the ino -agent.
