Yabloko Chairman Nikolai Rybakov commented on the decision of the Ministry of Justice to recognise Lev Shlosberg, a member of the Yabloko Federal Political Committee, a “foreign agent.”
“Lev Shlosberg is recognised as a foreign agent. The Ministry of Justice explains it virtually for disagreeing with the authorities. Shlosberg is a man who absolutely loves his country and his native Pskov. That is why he proposes to do everything differently in Russia, seeks to restore respect for the people in his country. And I am certgain that he will continue to do so,” Rybakov wrote on his Telegram channel.
It should be noted that in December 2022, the Russian Ministry of Justice recognized another member of the Federal Political Committee of Yabloko, Svetlana Gannushkina, as a “foreign agent”.
