Ambassador Huntsman on the Naming of Media Organizations as Foreign Agents in Russia:
“We are very concerned about this recent move by the Russian government under the banner of the Foreign Agent Law. We’ve seen what this has done to civil society and non-governmental organizations by way of harassment, lawsuits, and effectively putting people out of business. We strongly urge the Russian government not to allow this to stifle free speech and editorial independence on the part of those who seek to operate freely in Russia.”
