The court changed the status of third parties in the case of Glushchenko v. Reznik: the media that published the latter’s interview were recognized as co-defendants.

The owner of the Voin-V construction company recalled these words to his opponent just as the media structures of Yevgeny Prigozhin began persecuting Reznik.
