Original: Human Rights Group: Repression Intensifies in Russia for Participation in ‘Undesirable Organizations’
A human rights organization reports that repression in Russia is intensifying against people participating in organizations the state has labeled 'undesirable.' Participation in such groups is criminalized under Russian law, and the new findings point to mounting prosecutions and pressure on civil society activists, lawyers, and ordinary members. The warning highlights a further tightening of restrictions on independent organizing in the country.
Why now: Concern is growing over Russia's escalating crackdown on civil society and the criminalization of contact with banned groups.
