Elena Kostyuchenko and Miquel Cabal

Russia: Silenced Voices

Russian journalist Elena Kostyuchenko reports about present-day Russia experiences of people who are silenced and abandoned by the system—young people, members of the LGBTIQ+ community, people in isolated villages—as well as shedding light on conditions in orphanages, environmental crimes, police corruption, and more. In this conversation with Miquel Cabal, and by means of journalism committed to telling the truth, Kostyuchenko offers a choral account of today’s Russia, and considers the possibilities of working as a journalist under the Putin regime.
