JOINT PRESS RELEASE

Another blatant human rights violation by Russia:

labelling the Movement of Conscientious Objectors as “Foreign Agent”

Dear Partners,

We write with an urgent update regarding our organisation. As of last Friday, June 23rd, the Movement of Conscientious Objectors has been officially labeled as a "foreign agent" in the Russian Federation.

This action, while a demonstration of the effectiveness of our work, is fundamentally a discriminatory application of law that contradicts universally accepted human rights and freedoms.
