The Ministry of Justice has added to the register of “foreign agents” Echo journalist Maksim Kurnikov and Elena Shuvalova, head of the Novosibirsk branch of the 'Rassvet' party. This was reported by Novaya Gazeta Europe.

The following were also added to the register:

  • The socio-political project Beyond Propaganda;
  • The discussion project “Prostranstvo Politika. Novosibirsk” (Novosibirsk is a major city in Siberia);
  • LLC “Mavi Group,” publisher of the Moskauer Deutsche Zeitung newspaper;
  • The association of non-profit organisations “International Union of German Culture.”

The Ministry of Justice claims that the grounds for being added to the register were spreading “false information” and materials of an “anti-Russian orientation,” cooperation with other “foreign agents” and foreign support.
