Fear And Loathing In Putin's Russia

from The Power Vertical Podcast by Brian Whitmore · host The Charles T. McDowell Center for Global Studies and Atlantic Council's Eurasia Center

Independent media outlets and civic groups are shutting down after being designated "foreign agents" or "undesirable organizations." Russia's media regulator, Roskomnadzor, has blocked 49 websites linked to Aleksei Navalny as the imprisoned opposition leader's associates are arrested or flee the country. And the FSB has published a list of 61 topics that Russians are forbidden to discuss, lest they be designated as foreign agents. Vladimir Putin's regime is dialing the repression up to eleven. On this week's Power Vertical Podcast, host Brian Whitmore discusses what it all means and where it may be going with Maria Snegovaya.
